We analyze the complexity of the quantum optimization algorithm based on adiabatic evolution for the set partition problem. We introduce a cost function defined on a logarithmic scale of the partition residues so that the total number of…

Avoided crossings of level pairs with opposite slopes can form potential energy curves for the external degree of freedom of quantum particles. We investigate nonadiabatic decay of metastable states on such avoided crossings (MSACs) using…

We study a two-level transition probability for a finite number of avoided crossings with a small interaction. Landau-Zener formula, which gives the transition probability for one avoided crossing as $e^{-\pi\frac{\varepsilon^{2}}{h}}$,…

A potential problem with adiabatic switching in perturbation theory is that divergent terms appear in the series solution. An example of this was presented by C. Brouder et al [4] for a simple 2 state system where the evolution of system in…

We introduce an adiabatic long-range quantum communication proposal based on a quantum dot array. By adiabatically varying the external gate voltage applied on the system, the quantum information encoded in the electron can be transported…

We re-examine the notions of time and evolution in the light of the mathematical properties of the solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation which are revealed by an extended adiabatic treatment. The main advantage of this treatment is to…

A new simple proof of the adiabatic theorem is given in the finite dimensional case for nondegenerate as well as degenerate states. The explicitly integrable two level system is considered as an example. It is demonstrated that the error…

When an external parameter drives a system across a quantum phase transition at a finite rate, work is performed on the system and entropy is dissipated, due to the creation of excitations via the Kibble-Zurek mechanism. Although both the…

A numerical method is proposed for simulation of composite open quantum systems. It is based on Lindblad master equations and adiabatic elimination. Each subsystem is assumed to converge exponentially towards a stationary subspace, slightly…

Motivated by a problem of one mode approximation for a non-linear evolution with charge accumulation in potential wells, we consider a general linear adiabatic evolution problem for a semi-classical Schr\"odinger operator with a time…

We generalize the standard quantum adiabatic approximation to the case of open quantum systems. We define the adiabatic limit of an open quantum system as the regime in which its dynamical superoperator can be decomposed in terms of…

In this paper we show that solutions of the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation are asymptotic limit of solutions to the Benney system. Due to the special characteristic of the one-dimensional transport equation same result is obtained…

We discuss bounds for nonadiabatic transitions from the viewpoints of the adiabatic perturbation theory and the quantum speed limit. We show that the amount of nonadiabatic transitions from the $n$th level to the $m$th level is bounded by a…

Using a generalized energy-conserving transition probability, it is shown how nonadiabatic calculations, within the Wigner-Heisenberg representation of quantum mechanics, can be reliably extended to far longer times than those allowed by a…

One often needs to estimate how fast an evolving state of a quantum system can depart from some target state or target subspace of a Hilbert space. Such estimates are known as quantum speed limits. We derive a quantum speed limit for a…

Does electron transfer (ET) kinetics within a single-electron trajectory description always coincide with the ensemble description? This fundamental question of ergodic behavior is scrutinized within a very basic semi-classical…

We prove the exponential ergodicity of the transition probabilities of solutions to elliptic multivalued stochastic differential equations.

Adiabatic time evolution of quantum systems is a widely used tool with applications ranging from state preparation through simplifications of computations and topological transformations to optimization and quantum computing. Adiabatic time…

We outline a method based on successive canonical transformations which yields a product expansion for the evolution operator of a general (possibly non-Hermitian) Hamiltonian. For a class of such Hamiltonians this expansion involves a…

New annealing schedules for quantum annealing are proposed based on the adiabatic theorem. These schedules exhibit faster decrease of the excitation probability than a linear schedule. To derive this conclusion, the asymptotic form of the…
