- Abstract: We present an introduction to the theory of open extended quantum systems. We begin with a microscopic derivation of the so-called Lindblad equation followed by a more abstract approach. Next, we introduce collision models, a versatile framework that offers a possible unraveling of the non-unitary dynamics of open quantum systems. We finally discuss concrete situations involving quantum transport phenomena, the generation and replication of entanglement or even the non-thermal relaxation of cold atomic gases confined in optical traps.

We experimentally investigate the subsystem Loschmidt echo, a quasi-local observable that captures key features of the Loschmidt echo.
In the short-time regime, we observe a dynamical quantum phase transition arising from genuine higher-order correlations.
In the long-time regime, the subsystem Loschmidt echo allows us to quantitatively determine the effective dimension and structure of the accessible Hilbert space in the thermodynamic limit.

Kibble-Zurek mechanism [0.0]
Out-of-equilibrium dynamics of a quantum system driven across a quantum phase transition is an important problem.
We develop a universal description of such coarsening dynamics and their interplay with the Kibble-Zurek mechanism.
We highlight how such coarsening dynamics can be directly studied in today's "synthetic" quantum many-body systems.

We consider a discrete-time quantum dynamics, where the open system collides sequentially with qubit probes which are then measured.
We show that the desired biasing is achieved by suitably modifying the Kraus operators describing the discrete open dynamics.
The above extends the theory of biased quantum trajectories from Lindblad-like dynamics to sequences of arbitrary dynamical maps.
