We consider the effects of strong dissipation in quantum systems with a notion of locality, which induces a hierarchy of many-body relaxation timescales as shown in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 100604 (2020)]. If the strength of the dissipation varies stro... Read More about Random matrix theory for quantum and classical metastability in local Liouvillians.
