title: Spectral properties and classical decays in quantum open systems.
abstract: We study the relationship between the spectral properties of diffusive open quantum maps and the classical spectrum of Ruelle-Pollicott resonances. The leading resonances determine the asymptotic time regime for several quantities of interest--the linear entropy, the Loschmidt echo, and the correlations of the initial state. A numerical method that allows an efficient calculation of the leading spectrum is developed using a truncated basis adapted to the dynamics.
