Abstract: We study the bath correlation functions (BCFs) of open quantum systems interacting with thermal baths, in case the spectral densities (SDs) exhibit removable logarithmic singularities at low frequencies and are arbitrarily shaped at higher frequencies. The singularities consist in arbitrarily positive or negative powers of logarithmic functions, as additional factors for the power laws of the Ohmic-like SDs. If the SD vanishes sufficiently fast at high frequencies the short time behavior of the BCF is algebraic. The long time behavior of the BCF exhibits a variety of relaxations that involve inverse power laws and arbitrary powers of logarithmic forms. The imaginary part of the BCF shows over long times regular dependence on the low frequency structure of the SD, except for certain conditions where the ohmicity parameter takes odd natural values. Same dependence holds for the real part of the BCF at non-vanishing temperatures. At zero temperature the real part of the BCF exhibits over long times the same regular relationship with the low frequency structure of the SD, except for certain conditions involving even natural values of the ohmicity parameter. The exceptional conditions provide relaxations that are faster than those obtained via the regular dependence. In this way, various long time relaxations of the BCF that are slower than exponential decays and arbitrarily faster or slower than inverse power laws, can be interpreted in terms of removable logarithmic singularities in the low frequency structure SD of an open quantum system.
