• Abstract: We propose a method for deriving Lindblad-like master equations when the environment/reservoir is consigned to a classical description. As a proof of concept, we apply the method to continuous wave (CW) magnetic resonance. We make use of a perturbation scheme we have termed "affine commutation perturbation" (ACP). Unlike traditional perturbation methods, ACP has the advantage of incorporating some effects of the perturbation even at the zeroth-order approximation. Indeed, we concentrate here on the zeroth-order, and show how -- even at this lowest order -- the ACP scheme can still yield non-trivial and equally important results. In contradistinction to the purely quantum Markovian master equations in the literature, we explicitly keep the term linear in the system-environment interaction -- at all orders of the perturbation. At the zeroth-order, we show that this results in a dynamics whose map is non-CP (Completely Positive) but approaches asymptotically a CP map as $t \to +\infty$. We also argue that this linear term accounts for the linear response of the system to the presence of the environment -- thus the harbinger for a linear response theory (LRT) within the confines of such (semiclassical) Lindblad-like master equations. The adiabatic process limit of the dynamics is also defined, and considerably explored in the context of CW magnetic resonance. Here, the same linear term emerges as the preeminent link between standard (adiabatic process) LRT (as formulated by Kubo and co.) and Lindblad-like master equations. And with it, we show how simple stick-plot CW magnetic resonance spectra of multispin systems can be easily generated under certain conditions.

  We introduce a method for reconstructing the corresponding Lindbaldian master equation given any target NESS. The kernel (null-space) of the correlation matrix corresponds to Lindbladian solutions. We illustrate the method in different systems, ranging from bosonic Gaussian to dissipative-driven collective spins.

  In the Markovian regime, when the dynamics is described by a Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad (GKSL) master equation, this procedure is known as Monte-Carlo wavefunction (MCWF) approach. We propose a pseudo-Lindblad quantum trajectory (PLQT) unraveling. It does not require an effective extension of the state space, like other approaches, except for the addition of a single classical bit.

  We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

We derive the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) of the spin bath from a microscopic perspective. We envision this work provides new insights to extend the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) and DEOM approach to certain types of anharmonic enviroments.
