We cast observable measure of quantum coherence or asymmetry as a resource to control the quantum speed limit (QSL) for unitary evolutions. For non-unitary evolutions, QSL depends on that of the state of the system and environment together.…

We derive a sharp bound as the quantum speed limit (QSL) for the minimal evolution time of quantum open systems in the non-Markovian strong-coupling regime with initial mixed states by considering the effects of both renormalized…

The speed of quantum evolution is limited under finite energy resources. While most quantum speed limits (QSLs) are formulated in terms of quantum states, they can be extended to the evolution operator itself, and thus impose fundamental…

The "speed" of unitary quantum evolution was recently shown to be connected to entanglement in multipartite quantum systems. Here, we discuss a tighter version of the Mandelstam-Tamm uncertainty relation that depends on the Fisher…

Conventional quantum speed limits perform poorly for mixed quantum states: They are generally not tight and often significantly underestimate the fastest possible evolution speed. To remedy this, for unitary driving, we derive two quantum…

The Margolus-Levitin (ML) bound says that for any time-independent Hamiltonian, the time needed to evolve from one quantum state to another is at least $\pi \alpha(\epsilon) / (2 \langle E-E_0 \rangle)$, where $\langle E-E_0 \rangle$ is the…

Quantum speed limit (QSL) is the lower bound on the time required for a state to evolve to a desired final state under a given Hamiltonian evolution. Three well-known QSLs exist Mandelstam-Tamm (MT), Margolus-Levitin (ML), and dual ML…

We investigate the relationship between quantum speed limit time and the non-Markovianity of an atom in structured environments. We show that there exists an inverse relation between them, which means that the non-Markovian feature of the…

The minimal evolution time between two distinguishable states is of fundamental interest in quantum physics. Very recently Mirkin et al. argue that some most common quantum-speed-limit (QSL) bounds which depend on the actual evolution time…

The quantum speed limit (QSL) refers to the maximum speed of a quantum system to evolve from an initial state to its orthogonal states. The bound on the QSL for Hermitian systems, for example the Mandelstam-Tamm (MT) and Margolus-Levitin…
