• Abstract: An effective approach to open systems and irreversible phenomena is presented, where an open system $\Sigma(d)$ with $d$-dimensional Hilbert space, is a subsystem of a larger isolated system $\Sigma(2d)$ (the `full universe') with $2d$-dimensional Hilbert space. A family of Bargmann-like representations (called $z$-Bargmann representations) introduces naturally the larger space. The $z$-Bargmann representations are defined through semi-unitary matrices (which are a coherent states formalism in disguise). The `openness' of the system is quantified with the probability current that flows from the system to the external world. The Grothendieck quantity ${\cal Q}$ is shown to be related to the probability current, and is used as a figure of merit for the `openness' of a system. ${\cal Q}$ is expressed in terms of `rescaling transformations' which change not only the phase but also the absolute value of the wavefunction, and are intimately linked to irreversible phenomena (e.g., damping/amplification). It is shown that unitary transformations in the isolated system $\Sigma(2d)$ (full universe), reduce to rescaling transformations when projected to its open subsystem $\Sigma(d)$. The values of the Grothendieck ${\cal Q}$ for various quantum states in an open system, are compared with those for their counterpart states in an isolated system.

  We find a duality between open many-body systems governed by the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad (GKSL) equation. Under this duality, the identity operator on the open system side maps to the thermofield double state. We identify broad classes of many-body open systems with nontrivial explicit eigen operators $Q$ of the Lindbladian superoperator.

• Scattering data and bound states of a squeezed double-layer structure [77.34726150561087]
  A structure composed of two parallel homogeneous layers is studied in the limit as their widths $l_j$ and $l_j$, and the distance between them $r$ shrinks to zero simultaneously. The existence of non-trivial bound states is proven in the squeezing limit, including the particular example of the squeezed potential in the form of the derivative of Dirac's delta function. The scenario how a single bound state survives in the squeezed system from a finite number of bound states in the finite system is described in detail.

• Multidimensional dark space and its underlying symmetries: towards dissipation-protected qubits [62.997667081978825]
  We show that a controlled interaction with the environment may help to create a state, dubbed as em dark'', which is immune to decoherence. To encode quantum information in the dark states, they need to span a space with a dimensionality larger than one, so different states act as a computational basis. This approach offers new possibilities for storing, protecting and manipulating quantum information in open systems.
