Quantum Open Quantum Systems textbooks with exercises?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights the need for a textbook on open quantum systems that includes exercises for self-assessment. While "The Theory of Open Quantum Systems" by Breuer and Petruccione is recognized as a standard reference, it is noted for lacking exercises. A recommended alternative is "Open Quantum Systems," edited by Breuer, Petruccione, and Vacchini, which offers a thorough introduction to the subject along with exercises at the end of each chapter, making it suitable for those looking to reinforce their understanding.

The standard reference for open quantum systems is The Theory of Open Quantum Systems by Breuer and Petruccione, which seems well-written but it lacks exercises, as do all the other textbooks I googled. Does someone have a recommendation for a textbook on open quantum systems with problems to check my understanding?

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...

Thread 'Blennow to follow up Altland?'

TLDR: is Blennow "Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering" a good follow-up to Altland "Mathematics for physicists"? Hello everybody, returning to physics after 30-something years, I felt the need to brush up my maths first. It took me 6 months and I'm currently more than half way through the Altland "Mathematics for physicists" book, covering the math for undergraduate studies at the right level of sophystication, most of which I howewer already knew (being an aerospace engineer)...
