Quantum optimal control has enjoyed wide success for a variety of theoretical and experimental objectives. These favorable results have been attributed to advantageous properties of the corresponding control landscapes, which are free from…
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…
A quantum control landscape is defined as the objective to be optimized as a function of the control variables. Existing empirical and theoretical studies reveal that most realistic quantum control landscapes are generally devoid of false…
The ability to control quantum systems using shaped fields as well as to infer the states of such controlled systems from measurement data are key tasks in the design and operation of quantum devices. Here we associate the success of…
The success of quantum optimal control for both experimental and theoretical objectives is connected to the topology of the corresponding control landscapes, which are free from local traps if three conditions are met: (1) the quantum…
The control landscape for various canonical quantum control problems is considered. For the class of pure-state transfer problems, analysis of the fidelity as a functional over the unitary group reveals no suboptimal attractive critical…
The controllability property of the unitary propagator of an N-level quantum mechanical system subject to a single control field is described using the structure theory of semisimple Lie algebras. Sufficient conditions are provided for the…
The control landscape of a quantum system $A$ interacting with another quantum system $B$ is studied. Only system $A$ is accessible through time dependent controls, while system B is not accessible. The objective is to find controls that…
Quantum phenomena of interest in connection with applications to computation and communication almost always involve generating specific transfers between eigenstates, and their linear superpositions. For some quantum systems, such as spin…
A quantum system subject to external fields is said to be controllable if these fields can be adjusted to guide the state vector to a desired destination in the state space of the system. Fundamental results on controllability are reviewed…
The optimal control of unitary transformations is a fundamental problem in quantum control theory and quantum information processing. The feasibility of performing such optimizations is determined by the computational and control resources…
The reliable and precise generation of quantum unitary transformations is essential to the realization of a number of fundamental objectives, such as quantum control and quantum information processing. Prior work has explored the optimal…
The control of quantum systems has been proven to possess trap-free optimization landscapes under the satisfaction of proper assumptions. However, many details of the landscape geometry and their influence on search efficiency still need to…
Simple, precise, and robust control is demanded for operating a large quantum information processor. However, existing routes to high-fidelity quantum control rely heavily on arbitrary waveform generators that are difficult to scale up.…
Conventional approaches for controlling open quantum systems use coherent control which affects the system's evolution through the Hamiltonian part of the dynamics. Such control, although being extremely efficient for a large variety of…
A central feature of quantum mechanics is that a measurement is intrinsically probabilistic. As a result, continuously monitoring a quantum system will randomly perturb its natural unitary evolution. The ability to control a quantum system…
In this paper, we present a control problem related to a semilinear differential equation with a moving singularity, i.e., the singular point depends on a parameter. The particularity of the controllability condition resides in the fact…
Numerous lines of experimental, numerical and analytical evidence indicate that it is surprisingly easy to locate optimal controls steering quantum dynamical systems to desired objectives. This has enabled the control of complex quantum…
A new notion of controllability, eigenstate controllability, is defined for finite-dimensional bilinear quantum mechanical systems which are neither strongly completely controllably nor completely controllable. And a quantum control…
Optimal control theory is usually formulated as an indirect method requiring the solution of a two-point boundary value problem. Practically, the solution is obtained by iterative forward and backward propagation of quantum wavepackets.…
