It is shown that the introduction of an upper limit to the proper acceleration of a particle can smooth the problem of ultraviolet divergencies in local quantum field theory. For this aim, the classical model of a relativistic particle with…
This paper is interested in the description of the density of particles evolving according to some optimal policy of an impulse control problem. We first fix sets on which the particles jump and explain how we can characterize such a…

In the paper "Optimal control of a Vlasov-Poisson plasma by an external magnetic field - The basics for variational calculus" [arXiv:1708.02464] we have already introduced a set of admissible magnetic fields and we have proved that each of…
Quantum degeneracy is the central many-body feature of ideal quantum gases stemming from quantum mechanics. In this work we address its relationship to the most fundamental form of non-classicality in many-body system, i.e. many-body…
In this work, we address the problem of maximizing fidelity in a quantum state transformation process controlled in such a way as to keep decoherence within given bounds. We consider a three-level $\Lambda$-type atom subjected to Markovian…
We consider a series of optimal control problems with 2-dimensional control lying in an arbitrary convex compact set $\Omega$. The considered problems are well studied for the case when $\Omega$ is a unit disc, but barely studied for…
In a previous work we showed that spin can be envisioned as living in a phase space that is dual to the standard phase space of position and momentum. In this work we demonstrate that the second class constraints inherent in this "Dual…
The Proca-Corben-Schwinger equations for a spin-1 particle with an anomalous magnetic moment are added by a term describing an electric dipole moment, then they are reduced to a Hamiltonian form, and finally they are brought to the…
We study problems of optimal boundary control with systems governed by linear hyperbolic partial differential equations. The objective function is quadratic and given by an integral over the finite time interval $(0,\, T)$ that depends on…
Achieving full control of the time-evolution of a many-body quantum system is currently a major goal in physics. In this work we investigate the different ways in which the controllability of a quantum system can be influenced by its…
We propose a general framework for studying optimal impulse control problem in the presence of uncertainty on the parameters. Given a prior on the distribution of the unknown parameters, we explain how it should evolve according to the…
We give a formulation of quantum ergodicity for Pauli Hamiltonians with arbitrary spin in terms of a Wigner-Weyl calculus. The corresponding classical phase space is the direct product of the phase space of the translational degrees of…
This contribution considers optimal control problems subject to nonlocal conservation laws -- those in which the velocity depends nonlocally (i.e., via a convolution) on the solution -- and the so-called singular limit. First, the existence…
Equilibrium spin-current is calculated in a quasi-two-dimensional electron gas with finite thickness under in-plane magnetic field and in the presence of Rashba- and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions. The transverse confinement is modeled…

In this paper we investigate the limits of control for mixed-state quantum systems. The constraint of unitary evolution for non-dissipative quantum systems imposes kinematical bounds on the optimization of arbitrary observables. We…
We show that Rashba spin-orbit coupling may result in an energy gap in the spectrum of electrons in a two-mode quantum wire if a suitable confining potential is chosen. This leads to a dip in the conductance and a spike in the spin current…
