Markovianity, where system-bath interactions have no memory, is central for describing many physical processes and serves as a useful approximation that reduces complexity. Here, the authors show that Markovianity can arise not only from the bath’s properties, but also from dissipation induced in a system coupled to a non-Markovian bath by its coupling to an additional Markovian bath.
