This book treats modern aspects of open systems, measurement, and
decoherence in relativistic quantum theory. It starts with a
comprehensive introduction to the problems related to measuring
local and nonlocal observables and the constraints imposed by the
causality principle. In the articles that follow, the emphasis lies
on new theoretical models. Quantum dynamical semigroups and
stochastic processes in Hilbert space are introduced, as are
dynamical reduction models. Further topics include relativistic
generalizations of the continuous spontaneous localization model
and of the quantum state diffusion model and decoherence and the
dynamical selection of preferred basis sets in the framework of
continuous measurement theory and of the decoherent histories
approach. Mathematical aspects of quantum measurement theory and
dynamical entropies are also studied from the viewpoint of the
operational approach to quantum mechanics.
