Universal control over a bosonic degree of freedom is key in the quest for quantum-based technologies. Such universal control requires however the ability to perform demanding non-Gaussian gates -- namely, higher-than-quadratic interactions…

In adiabatic rapid passage, the Bloch vector of a qubit is inverted by slowly inverting an external field to which it is coupled, and along which it is initially aligned. In non-adiabatic twisted rapid passage, the external field is allowed…
