Title: Quantum Control: An Introduction to Controllability and Optimal Control
Date: December 14 Monday 15:00-18:00, December 15 Tuesday 15:30-18:30
Room: 55N-2F Departments of Physics and Applied Physics Meeting Room, Nishi-Waseda Campus, Waseda University
Abstract:
Quantum Control is a highly successful approach to understanding quantum dynamics and tailoring it to one’s needs. In this lecture, we will discuss the mathematical background to control, which includes results such as Trotter’s Formula and the Quantum Recurrence Theorem with high relevance in other areas of quantum mechanics. We will then introduce the central concept of Reachability in control and characterize its properties in the context of Quantum Computation. Finally we discuss optimal control and its numerical implementation.
