Noise-assisted transport phenomena highlight the nontrivial interplay between environmental effects and quantum coherence in achieving maximal efficiency. Due to the complexity of biochemical systems and their environments, effective open quantum system models capable of providing physical insights on the presence and role of quantum effects are highly needed. In this paper, we introduce a new approach that combines an effective quantum microscopic description with a classical stochastic one. Our stochastic collision model describes both Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics without relying on the weak coupling assumption. We investigate the consequences of spatial and temporal heterogeneity of noise on transport efficiency in a fully connected graph and in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex. Our approach shows how to meaningfully formulate questions, and provide answers, on important open issues such as the properties of optimal noise and the emergence of the network structure as a result of an evolutionary process.
We present a theoretical framework to tackle quantum non-Markovian dynamics based on a microscopic collision model (CM), where the bath consists of a large collection of initially uncorrelated ancillas. Unlike standard memoryless CMs, we endow the ba
We reveal the emergence of environment-induced spontaneous synchronization between two spin-1/2 quantum objects in a collision model setting. In particular, we determine the conditions for the dynamical establishment of synchronous evolution between
In addition to the well-known Landauer-Buttiker scattering theory and the nonequilibrium Greens function technique for mesoscopic transports, an alternative (and very useful) scheme is quantum master equation approach. In this article, we review the
We present a simple experimental scheme, based on standard atom optics techniques, to design highly versatile model systems for the study of single particle quantum transport phenomena. The scheme is based on a discrete set of free-particle momentum
We examine a proposal by Sherson and Moelmer to generate polarization-squeezed light in terms of the quantum stochastic calculus (QSC). We investigate the statistics of the output field and confirm their results using the QSC formalism. In addition,
