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…

We introduce a framework for computing time-dependent quantum transition rates (QTRs) that describe the pace of evolution of a quantum state from a given subspace to a target subspace. QTRs are expressed in terms of flux-flux correlators…

We show how quantum correlations allow us to break the local speed limits of physical processes using only local measurements and classical communication between two parties that share an entangled state. Inequalities that bound the minimal…

The quantum speed limit (QSL) of the Jaynes-Cummings model with detuning for arbitrary initial states is investigated. We mainly focus on the influences of the detuning, width of Lorentzian spectral density, and coherence of the initial…

Quantum theory sets a limit on the minimum time required to transform from an initial state to a target state. It is known as quantum speed limit time. quantum speed limit time can be used to determine the rate of quantum evolution for…

We present a simple proof of the minimum time for the quantum evolution between two arbitrary states. This proof is performed in the absence of any geometrical arguments. Then, being in the geometric framework of quantum evolutions based…

The speed limits on entanglement are defined as the maximal rate at which entanglement can be generated or degraded in a physical process. We derive the speed limits on entanglement, using the relative entropy of entanglement and…

The quantum speed limit is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics, which aims at finding the minimum time scale or the maximum dynamical speed for some fixed targets. In a large number of studies in this field, the construction of valid…

Quantum states can in a sense be thought of as generalizations of classical probability distributions, but are more powerful than probability distributions when used for computation or communication. Quantum speedup therefore requires some…

We derive lower bounds on the time needed for a quantum annealer to prepare the ground state of a target Hamiltonian. These bounds do not depend on the annealing schedule and can take the local structure of the Hamiltonian into account.…

While playing an important role in the foundations of quantum theory, Quantum Speed Limits (QSL) have no role in discussions about the search for quantum gravity. We fill this gap by analysing what QSL arises when superposing spherically…

We introduce action quantum speed limits (QSLs) as a family of bounds on the minimal time to connect two states that, unlike the usual geometric approach, crucially depend on how the path is traversed, i.e. on the instantaneous speed. The…

We investigate the impact of coherent control errors on quantum state evolution by deriving a general norm inequality based on Gronwall's lemma. This inequality provides an explicit upper bound on the deviation between an ideal quantum…

Quantum speed limit is bound on the minimum time a quantum system requires to evolve from an initial state to final state under a given dynamical process. It sheds light on how fast a desired state transformation can take place which is…

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…

Quantum mechanics is an inherently linear theory. However, collective effects in many body quantum systems can give rise to effectively nonlinear dynamics. In the present work, we analyze whether and to what extent such nonlinear effects…
