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 traditional quantum speed limits are not attainable for many physical processes, as they tend to be loose and fail to determine the exact time taken by quantum systems to evolve. To address this, we derive exact quantum speed limits for…

The minimum time a system needs to change from an initial state to a final orthogonal state is called quantum speed limit time. Quantum speed limit time can be used to quantify the speed of the quantum evolution. The speed of the quantum…
