Abstract
The effective hamiltonian approach was proposed to investigate the non-Markovian decoherence of an open system and to understand the characteristics of its environment. The formalism was based on the notion of an effective environment that were responsible for the decoherence. The approach was appllied to the dephasing, depolarizing and amplitude-damping processes. It was found that the non-Markovian environment suppresses the decoherence of the qubit, due to the memory effect of the non-Markovian environment.
