A time-irreversible generalized master equation
Abstract
A generalized time irreversible master equation for a relevant part of the density matrix is derived using the special form of the initial or boundary condition, which selects the retarded solutions of the Liouville equation. A perturbation theory is developed for the kernel of this equation.
