主 题:quantum Brownian motion time-dependent evolution quantum entropy
摘 要:The quantum Brownian motion model is a typical model in the study of nonequilibrium quantum *** is one of the most fundamental physical concepts in *** this work,by solving the quantum Langevin equation,we study the von Neumann entropy of a particle undergoing quantum Brownian *** obtain the analytical expression of the time evolution of the Wigner function in terms of the initial Wigner *** result is applied to the thermodynamic equilibrium initial state,which reproduces its classical counterpart in the high temperature *** on these results,for those initial states having well-defined classical counterparts,we obtain the explicit expression of the quantum corrections to the entropy in the weak coupling ***,we find that for the thermodynamic equilibrium initial state,all terms odd inÿ are exactly *** results bring important insights to the understanding of entropy in open quantum systems.
