Third quantization: a general method to solve master equations for quadratic open Fermi systems
read the original abstract
The Lindblad master equation for an arbitrary quadratic system of n fermions is solved explicitly in terms of diagonalization of a 4n x 4n matrix, provided that all Lindblad bath operators are linear in the fermionic variables. The method is applied to the explicit construction of non-equilibrium steady states and the calculation of asymptotic relaxation rates in the far from equilibrium problem of heat and spin transport in a nearest neighbor Heisenberg XY spin 1/2 chain in a transverse magnetic field.

Exact operator dynamics in Lindbladian Wess-Zumino-Witten conformal field theories
Abelian U(1)_k WZW Lindbladians admit exact closed operator dynamics for arbitrary jump rates via current algebra, while non-Abelian versions require symmetric dissipation and close only for single operators.

Dissipation Mechanisms and Dissipative Phase Transitions of two coupled Fully Connected Quantum Ising models
Different classes of dissipators in coupled quantum Ising models produce either equilibrium-like relaxation with protocol-dependent dynamics or nonequilibrium steady states featuring reentrant symmetry breaking.
