Response theory for nonequilibrium steady states of open quantum systems

We introduce a response theory for open quantum systems within nonequilibrium steady states subject to a Hamiltonian perturbation. Working in the weak system-bath coupling regime, our results are derived within the Lindblad-Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan formalism. We find that the response of the sys...
