We consider a system of an arbitrary number of \textsc{1d} linear Schr\"odinger equations on a bounded interval with bilinear control. We prove global exact controllability in large time of these $N$ equations with a single control. This…

Quantum control is traditionally expressed through bilinear models and their associated Lie algebra controllability criteria. But, the first order approximation are not always sufficient and higher order developpements are used in recent…

Results obtained with stochastic methods have an inherent uncertainty due to the finite number of samples that can be achieved in practice. In lattice QCD this problem is particularly salient in some observables like, for instance,…

In this work, we study the minimal time to steer a given crowd to a desired configuration. The control is a vector field, representing a perturbation of the crowd velocity, localized on a fixed control set. We characterize the minimal time…

Existing generalization bounds fail to explain crucial factors that drive the generalization of modern neural networks. Since such bounds often hold uniformly over all parameters, they suffer from over-parametrization and fail to account…
