Introduction to Non-Markovian Open Quantum Systems Dynamics by Bassano Vacchini

Explore the foundations of non-Markovian open quantum systems dynamics in this comprehensive lecture by Bassano Vacchini. Delve into advanced concepts of quantum theory as part of the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences' program on Foundations and Perspectives in Quantum Theory. Learn about the measurement problem, proposed solutions, the role of gravity in wave function collapse, weak measurements, quantum measure, and the Born rule. Gain insights into trace dynamics and non-Markovian dynamics, essential for understanding quantum systems' behavior. This lecture is part of a broader program that covers both theoretical aspects and experimental applications, including matter wave interferometry, optomechanics experiments, and tests of decoherence. Discover the current state of the art in quantum theory and its potential implications for understanding the early universe and developing a quantum theory of gravity.
