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?

One possible textbook with exercises is Open Quantum Systems, edited by H.-P. Breuer, F. Petruccione, and B. Vacchini. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to open quantum systems and their dynamics, and it includes exercises at the end of each chapter.
 
By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
