Non-equilibrium evolution of quantum systems connected to multiple baths

In this thesis we develop a systematic formalism that allows the calculation of transport properties for small quantum systems coupled to multiple baths with different temperatures and/or chemical potentials. Our approach is based on a generalization of the projector operator technique, previously u...
