Geometric effects make evolution time vary for different evolution curves that connect the same two quantum states. Thus, it is important to be able to control along which path a quantum state evolve to achieve maximal speed in quantum…

Transforming an initial quantum state into a target state through the fastest possible route---a quantum brachistochrone---is a fundamental challenge for many technologies based on quantum mechanics. Here, we demonstrate fast coherent…

Dissipation has traditionally been considered a hindrance to quantum information processing, but recent studies have shown that it can be harnessed to generate desired quantum states. To be useful for practical applications, the ability to…

We extend the concept of quantum speed limit -- the minimal time needed to perform a driven evolution -- to complex interacting many-body systems. We investigate a prototypical many-body system, a bosonic Josephson junction, at increasing…

Coherence is the most fundamental quantum resource in quantum information processing. How fast a physical system gets coherence or decoherence is a critical ingredient. We present an attainable quantum speed limit based on the variation of…

Fastness and robustness are both critical in the implementation of high-fidelity gates for quantum computation, but in practice, a trade-off has to be made between them. In this paper, we investigate the underlying robust time-optimal…

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…
