"Extended weak coupling limit for open quantum systems"

Prof. Jan DEREZINSKI

Abstract: Consider a small quantum system interacting with a reservoir. It
is well known that its reduced dynamics converges in the weak coupling (van
Hove) limit to a Markov dynamics. One expects that the full dynamics should
in some sense converge to a certain dilation of that Markov dynamics. In the
literature there exists a well known proposal how to implement this
intuition contained in the work of Accardi-Frigerio-Lu. I will describe a
somewhat different approach to this idea, based on a recent work with W.De
Roeck.
