Abstract

We classify generators of quantum Markov semigroups T on B(h), with h finite dimensional and with a faithful normal invariant state $\rho$ satisfying the standard quantum detailed balance condition with an anti-unitary time reversal $\theta$ commuting with $\rho$. Our results also show that it is possible to find a standard form for the operators in the Lindblad representation of the generators extending the standard form of generators of quantum Markov semigroups satisfying the usual quantum detailed balance condition with non-symmetric multiplications whose generators must commute with the modular group associated with $\rho$. This supports our conclusion that the most appropriate noncommutative version of the classical detailed balance condition is the above standard quantum detailed balance condition with an anti-unitary time reversal.
