A thermodynamically consistent Markovian master equation beyond the secular approximation [PDF]
Markovian master equations provide a versatile tool for describing open quantum systems when memory effects of the environment may be neglected. As these equations are of an approximate nature, they often do not respect the laws of thermodynamics when no

The master equation for passive modelocking [PDF]
Passive modelocking (PML) of lasers is pivotal in modern science and industry. Here, solving a half-century-long challenge, we present the first master equation (ME) describing PML on all time scales, from Q-switched to fundamental and harmonic ...

Modelling the Dynamics of Regret Minimization in Large Agent Populations: a Master Equation Approach
Understanding the learning dynamics in multiagent systems is an important and challenging task. Past research on multi-agent learning mostly focuses on two-agent settings.

Solving Heterogeneous Agent Models with the Master Equation
This paper proposes an analytic representation of perturbations in heterogeneous agent economies with aggregate shocks. Treating the underlying distribution as an explicit state variable, a single value function defined on an infinite-dimensional state ...

Numerical integration of the master equation in some models of stochastic epidemiology. [PDF]
The processes by which disease spreads in a population of individuals are inherently stochastic. The master equation has proven to be a useful tool for modeling such processes.

A short introduction to the Lindblad master equation [PDF]
The theory of open quantum system is one of the most essential tools for the development of quantum technologies. Furthermore, the Lindblad (or Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad) Master Equation plays a key role as it is the most general generator of

Completely Positive, Simple, and Possibly Highly Accurate Approximation of the Redfield Equation [PDF]
Here we present a Lindblad master equation that approximates the Redfield equation, a well known master equation derived from first principles, without significantly compromising the range of applicability of the Redfield equation.

Simple master equations for describing driven systems subject to classical non-Markovian noise [PDF]
Driven quantum systems subject to non-Markovian noise are typically difficult to model even if the noise is classical. We present a systematic method based on generalized cumulant expansions for deriving a time-local master equation for such systems ...

Superoperator Master Equations and Effective Dynamics
We developed the projection method to derive an analog of the quantum master equation for propagators rather than density matrices themselves. As these propagators are superoperators, we call them superoperator master equations.

From the master equation to mean field game limit theory: a central limit theorem [PDF]
Mean field games (MFGs) describe the limit, as $n$ tends to infinity, of stochastic differential games with $n$ players interacting with one another through their common empirical distribution.
