Classical-Quantum Hybrid Models

Understand

Hybrid classical-quantum models are computational schemes that investigate the time evolution of systems, where some degrees of freedom are treated classically, while others are described quantum-mechanically.

• First, we present the motivation for such models, outline the requirements they must satisfy, and provide explanations for their development.
• Then we review various popular non-relativistic schemes and their associated limitations, with a particular emphasis on reversible dynamics.
