We consider a rotationally invariant system-bath (RISB) model in three-dimensional space that is described by a linear-rigid rotor independently coupled to three sets of harmonic-oscillator baths as functions of the Euler angle. While this…

With a decomposition scheme for the bath correlation function, the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) are extended to the zero-temperature sub-Ohmic and Ohmic spin-boson model. We investigate the linear absorption spectrum of the…

Simulating the irreversible quantum dynamics of exciton and electron transfer problems poses a nontrivial challenge. Because the irreversibility of the system dynamics is a result of quantum thermal activation and dissipation caused by the…

This review provides a brief and quick introduction to the quantum Langevin equation for an oscillator, while focusing on the steady-state thermodynamic aspects. A derivation of the quantum Langevin equation is carefully outlined based on…

We investigate the quantum dynamics of Coulomb potential systems in thermal baths. We study these systems within the framework of open quantum dynamics theory, focusing on preserving the rotational symmetry of the entire system, including…

We calculate the reduced density matrix for a system of coupled harmonic oscillators in a bosonic heat bath using the Born-Markov approximation and show that the expectation values of position and momentum evolve like classical quantities.…

We discuss the concept and realization of a heat bath in solid state quantum systems. First we demonstrate that, unlike a true resistor, a finite one-dimensional Josephson junction array or analogously a transmission line with non-vanishing…

We determine the frequency-dependent response characteristics of a quantum system to a driven Caldeira-Leggett bath. The bath degrees of freedom are explicitly driven by an external time-dependent force, in addition to the direct…

The competition between Hamiltonian and Lindblad dynamics in quantum systems give rise to non-equillibrium phenomena with no counter part in conventional condensed matter physics. In this paper, we investigate this interplay of dynamics in…

Interaction between a quantum system and its environment can induce stationary coherences -- off-diagonal elements in the reduced system density matrix -- even at equilibrium. This work investigates the ``quantumness'' of such phenomena by…

We study a general quantum system interacting with environment modeled by the bosonic heat bath of Caldeira and Leggett type. General interaction Hamiltonians are considered that commute with the system's Hamiltonian so that there is no…

The Caldeira-Leggett (CL) model, which describes a system bi-linearly coupled to a harmonic bath, has enjoyed popularity in condensed phase spectroscopy owing to its utmost simplicity. However, the applicability of the model to cases with…

An exact linear response expression is obtained for the heat current in a classical Hamiltonian system coupled to heat baths with time-dependent temperatures. The expression is equally valid at zero and finite frequencies. We present…

In this work, we study the thermodynamics of a two-level system (qubit) embedded in a finite-temperature structured-bath under periodical measurements. The system under measurements will reach a quasi-steady state, whose effective…

Formulating a rigorous system-bath partitioning approach remains an open issue. In this context the famous Caldeira-Leggett model that enables quantum and classical treatment of Brownian motion on equal footing has enjoyed popularity.…

We present an application of the Extended Stochastic Liouville Equation (ESLE) Phys. Rev. B 95, 125124, which gives an exact solution for the reduced density matrix of an open system surrounded by a harmonic heat bath. This method considers…

Rotating equilibrated systems are widespread, but relatively little attention has been devoted to studying them from the first principles of statistical mechanics. We fill this gap by studying a Brownian particle coupled with a thermal bath…

A damped oscillator heat bath model is a modification of the standard heat bath model, wherein each bath oscillator itself has a Markovian coupling to its own heat bath [1]. We modify such a model to one where the resulting damping of the…

We use the "generalized hierarchical equation of motion" proposed in Paper I to study decoherence in a system coupled to a spin bath. The present methodology allows a systematic incorporation of higher order anharmonic effects of the bath…

Are Markovian master equations for quantum Brownian motion independent of model assumptions used in the derivation and, thus, universal? With the aim of answering this question, we use a random band-matrix model for the system-bath…
