Abstract: | We solve the dynamics of an open quantum system where N strongly driven two-level atoms are equally coupled on resonance to a dissipative cavity mode. Analytical results are derived
on decoherence, entanglement, purity, atomic correlations and cavity field mean photon number. We predict decoherencefree
subspaces for the whole system and the N-qubit subsystem, the monitoring of quantum coherence and purity decay by atomic populations measurements, the conditional
generation of atomic multi-partite entangled states and of cavity cat-like states. We show that the dynamics of atoms prepared
in states invariant under permutation of any two components remains restricted within the subspace spanned by the completely
symmetric Dicke states. We discuss examples and applications in the cases N = 3, 4.
