May 7 at 15:27 comment added Frederik vom Ende You are of course right, thank you for pointing that out!
May 7 at 15:26 comment added Quantum Mechanic @FrederikvomEnde that's a useful update - just a quick typo because I think you probably mean $\tau\to 0$
May 7 at 9:42 comment added Frederik vom Ende To complete this answer: this $\rho(t)$ comes about, e.g., via Lindblad dynamics induced by the single jump operator $$ L_1(\tau)=\begin{pmatrix}0&0\\\frac1{\sqrt\tau}&0\end{pmatrix}\,. $$ So for a single $\tau$, $L_1(\tau)$ is of course bounded (with operator norm $\frac1{\sqrt\tau}$) because every matrix is bounded, but $\|L_1(\tau)\|\to\infty$ as $\tau\to\infty$ so it is not uniformly bounded. In other words the faster the exponential decay the larger the norm of the jump operators has to be.
