Working Group 1
Dissipative Dynamics in Quantum Systems
Focuses on understanding thermalization, prethermalization, and the emergence of classical behavior in dissipative quantum many-body systems. It also investigates symmetries and “slow variables” in open system dynamics.

Working Group 2
Emerging States and Phases of Dissipative Quantum Matter
WG2 investigates novel quantum states and phase transitions that arise under non-equilibrium conditions. It explores how environmental coupling and external driving can induce, stabilize, or destabilize correlated quantum phases, aiming to classify and characterize dissipative quantum matter.

Working Group 3
Characterization and Control of Open Quantum Platforms
Promotes the development of tools to characterize and control NISQ circuits. A key goal is to design “dissipation-design” algorithms that turn noise into an advantage for quantum computing tasks.
