We construct a non-Markovian canonical dynamical map that accounts for systems correlated with the environment. The physical meaning of not completely positive maps is studied to obtain a theory of non-Markovian quantum dynamics. The relationship between inverse maps and correlations with the environment is established. A generalized non-Markovian master equation is derived from the canonical dynamical map that goes beyond the Kossakowski-Lindblad Markovian master equation. Non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics can be be studied within this theory.

  1. Spin-Induced Non-Markovian Time-Crystal-Like Dynamics and Fractal Scaling in the Bateman Dual Oscillator

    Spin-induced deformation in the Bateman dual oscillator framework yields non-Markovian reduced dynamics with persistent oscillations and fractal scaling that mimic time crystals in a globally unitary quantum system.
