Abstract

This chapter discusses the path integral for non-Hamiltonian systems. The path integral approach is considered to general time dependent quantum operations. The quantum operation is considered as a real completely positive trace-preserving superoperator on the operator space. A path integral is derived for a completely positive quantum operation satisfied Lindblad equation. For example, a path integral is considered for a quantum operation with a simple infinitesimal generator.
