Abstract: We study a class of dynamical semigroups (mathbbLn)ninmathbbN that emerge, by a Feynman--Kac type formalism, from a random quantum dynamical system (mathcalLomegancirccdotscircmathcalLomega1(hoomega0))ninmathbbN driven by a Markov chain (omegan)ninmathbbN. We show that the almost sure large time behavior of the system can be extracted from the large n asymptotics of the semigroup, which is in turn directly related to the spectral properties of the generator mathbbL. As a physical application, we consider the case where the mathcalLomega's are the reduced dynamical maps describing the repeated interactions of a system mathcalS with thermal probes mathcalComega. We study the full statistics of the entropy in this system and derive a fluctuation theorem for the heat exchanges and the associated linear response formulas.
