Derivation of the Lindblad equation. NOTE: This lecture is quite technical, and I do not assume that you are able to reproduce, or even follow in detail, all the steps. I have recorded it for reference, and to show that a derivation is possible, but the essential ideas can be understood without following all details. And using the Lindblad equation in simple examples is perfetly possible without understanding the details of the derivation

Example 1: The Lindblad equation for a two level system at finite temperature
Example 2: The Lindblad equation for a harmonic oscillator
