Irreversibility mitigation in unital non-Markovian quantum evolutions by Stefano Gherardini, Stefano Marcantoni, Filippo Caruso

“…Finally, we also provide analytical bounds on the parameters in the generator giving rise to the quantum system dynamics, so as to ensure irreversibility mitigation of the corresponding non-Markovian evolution.…”

Coherifying quantum channels by Kamil Korzekwa, Stanisław Czachórski, Zbigniew Puchała, Karol Życzkowski

“…Is it always possible to explain random stochastic transitions between states of a finite-dimensional system as arising from the deterministic quantum evolution of the system? If not, then what is the minimal amount of randomness required by quantum theory to explain a given stochastic process? …”

On Quantum Collapse as a Basis for the Second Law of Thermodynamics by Ruth E. Kastner

“…The present model provides a specific physical justification for Boltzmann’s often-criticized assumption of molecular randomness (Stosszahlansatz), thereby changing its status from an ad hoc postulate to a theoretically grounded result, without requiring any change to the basic quantum theory. In addition, it is argued that TI provides an elegant way of reconciling, via indeterministic collapse, the time-reversible Liouville evolution with the time-irreversible evolution inherent in so-called “master equations” that specify the changes in occupation of the various possible states in terms of the transition rates between them. …”
