Abstract: We consider a simple microscopic model where the open-system dynamics of a qubit, despite being Markovian, shows features which are typically associated to the presence of memory effects. Namely, a non monotonic behavior both in the population and in the coherence evolution arises due to the presence of non-secular contributions, which break the phase covariance of the Lindbladian (semigroup) dynamics. We also show by an explicit construction how such a non-monotonic behaviour can be reproduced by a phase covariant evolution, but only at the price of inserting some state-dependent memory effects.
