Abstract

We prove the existence of a universal gap for minimum time controllability of finite dimensional quantum systems, except for some basic representations of spin groups. This is equivalent to the existence of a gap in the diameter of orbit spaces of the corresponding compact connected Lie group unitary actions on the Hermitian spheres.
