The degenerate Landau-Zener-Majorana-St\"uckelberg model consists of two degenerate energy levels whose energies vary with time and in the presence of an interaction which couples the states of the two levels. In the adiabatic limit, it…

We define a new unstable state in the Friedrichs model of a two-level atom. This unstable state is a complex eigenstate of the time evolution operator $\exp(-iHt)$ with a restricted test function space, which is obtained from causality…
The time-convolutionless master equation for the electronic populations is derived for a generic electron-phonon Hamiltonian. The equation can be used in the regimes where the golden rule approach is not applicable. The equation is applied…
