Quantum Stochastic Generators

الأصل · EN

We discuss stochastic derivations, stochastic Hamiltonians and the flows that they generate, algebraic fluctuaion-dissipation theorems, etc., in a language common to both classical and quantum algebras. It is convenient to define distinct notions of time-ordered exponentials to take account of the breakdown of the Leibniz rule in the Ito calculus. We introduce a notion of quantum Stratonovich calculus and show how it relates to Stratonovich-Dyson time ordered exponentials. We then use it to demonstrate a natural way to add stochastic derivations.
