This document summarizes the efforts of the EMMI Rapid Reaction Task Force on "Suppression and (re)generation of quarkonium in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC", centered around their 2019 and 2022 meetings. It provides a review of existing experimental results and theoretical approaches, including lattice QCD calculations and semiclassical and quantum approaches for the dynamical evolution of quarkonia in the quark-gluon plasma as probed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. The key ingredients of the transport models are itemized to facilitate comparisons of calculated quantities such as reaction rates, binding energies, and nuclear modification factors. A diagnostic assessment of the various results is attempted and coupled with an outlook for the future.

Stochastic Dynamics of Heavy Quarks in Strongly Coupled Plasma
Kolmogorov dynamics for heavy quarks in hot plasma shows significantly delayed large-momentum equilibration compared to Fokker-Planck with matched drag, due to rare low-momentum-loss events.

Bottomonium transport in a strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma
A semiclassical transport model using lattice-constrained T-matrix rates and viscous hydrodynamics reproduces the centrality dependence of bottomonium yields in 5.02 TeV Pb-Pb collisions within uncertainties.

Quantum decoherence: a study applied to quarkonium-like bound states in strongly interacting matter
A Lindblad master equation for a J/psi-like harmonic oscillator in an expanding QGP shows that hydrodynamic cooling slows quantum decoherence compared to a static bath, with viscosity having negligible impact.

Charmonium properties at high temperatures from lattice QCD
Lattice QCD calculations indicate charmonium states persist below the open-charm threshold up to 305 MeV but develop temperature-dependent thermal widths that increase with state size.
