In this paper, we analyze the harmonically driven Jaynes-Cummings and Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick models using both numerical integration of time-dependent Hamiltonians and Floquet theory. For a separation of time-scales between the drive and…

Linear control theory is used to develop an improved localized control scheme for spatially extended chaotic systems, which is applied to a Coupled Map Lattice as an example. The optimal arrangement of the control sites is shown to depend…

We construct non-equilibrium steady states in the Klein-Gordon theory in arbitrary space dimension $d$ following a local quench. We consider the approach where two independently thermalized semi-infinite systems, with temperatures $T_{\rm…
We consider Hamiltonians associated to optimal control problems for affine systems on the torus. They are not coercive and are possibly unbounded from below in the direction of the drift of the system. The main assumption is the strong…
A new method for controlling harmonic generation, in the framework of quantum optimal control theory (QOCT), is developed. The problem is formulated in the frequency domain using a new maximization functional. The relaxation method is used…
Consider a flock of birds that fly interacting between them. The interactions are modelled through a hierarchical system in which each bird, at each time step, adjusts its own velocity according to his past velocity and a weighted mean of…
We study finite-time flocking for an infinite set of Cucker-Smale particles with sublinear velocity coupling under fixed and switching sender networks. For this, we use a component-wise diameter framework and exploit sub-linear dissipation…
Dynamical coherent structure (pattern) formation in the Klein-Gordon lattice excited by periodic external field near the optical resonance is studied. It is shown that besides spatial patterns discovered recently (V.M.Burlakov,…
We show that the stochastic Schrodinger equation for the filtered state of a system, with linear free dynamics, undergoing continual non-demolition measurement or either position or momentum, or both together, can be solved explicitly…
We establish sufficient conditions for the quick relaxation to kinetic equilibrium in the classic Vicsek-Cucker-Smale model of bird flocking. The convergence time is polynomial in the number of birds as long as the number of flocks remains…
In this paper, we address the so-called general Fokker-Planck control problem for discrete-time first-order linear systems. Unlike conventional treatments, we don't assume the distributions of the system states to be Gaussian. Instead, we…
We present a theoretical proposal for preparing and manipulating a state of a single continuous-variable degree of freedom confined to a nonharmonic potential. By utilizing optimally controlled modulation of the potential's position and…
