Title: Non-Markovian dynamics of open quantum systems

Abstract:
All realistic quantum systems interact with their surroundings. Therefore, open quantum systems - 
in particular non-Markovian dynamics with memory effects - have recently become under very active studies [1].  
One of the descriptions of memory effects is via non-Markovian quantum jumps [2] and we illustrate the exchange 
of information between an open system and its environment in this context. During the last 10 years, large 
number of different quantifiers for non-Markovianity has been developed - we briefly review these focussing 
on an information flow based measure [3] and it's experimental implementation [4]. In addition of fundamental 
interest, nonlocal memory effects [5] allow to apply non-Markovianity to teleportation [6] and remote 
preparation of entanglement [7].
