Landau-Zener Tunneling for Dephasing Lindblad Evolutions
We consider a family of time-dependent dephasing Lindblad generators which model the monitoring of the instantaneous Hamiltonian of a system by a Markovian bath. In this family the time dependence of the dephasing operators is (essentially) governed by the instantaneous Hamiltonian. The evolution in...

Zusammenfassung: | We consider a family of time-dependent dephasing Lindblad generators which model the monitoring of the instantaneous Hamiltonian of a system by a Markovian bath. In this family the time dependence of the dephasing operators is (essentially) governed by the instantaneous Hamiltonian. The evolution in the adiabatic limit admits a geometric interpretation and can be solved by quadrature. As an application we derive an analog of the Landau-Zener tunneling formula for this family. |
