Divergences in open quantum systems

Abstract We show that for cubic scalar field theories in five and more spacetime dimensions, and for the T = 0 limit of the Caldeira-Leggett model, the quantum master equation for long-wavelength modes initially unentangled from short-distance modes, and at second order in perturbation theory, conta...
