One of the most widely known building blocks of modern physics is Heisenberg's
indeterminacy principle. Among the different statements of this fundamental property of the …

The chopped random basis (CRAB) ansatz for quantum optimal control has been proven to
be a versatile tool to enable quantum technology applications such as quantum computing …

Optimal control theory is a powerful mathematical tool, which has known a rapid
development since the 1950s, mainly for engineering applications. More recently, it has …

It is control that turns scientific knowledge into useful technology: in physics and engineering
it provides a systematic way for driving a dynamical system from a given initial state into a …

Achieving effectively adiabatic dynamics is a ubiquitous goal in almost all areas of quantum
physics. Here, we study the speed with which a quantum system can be driven when …

The advent of quantum devices, which exploit the two essential elements of quantum
physics, coherence and entanglement, has sparked renewed interest in the control of open …

We study the quantum speed limit for open quantum systems described by the Lindblad
master equation. The obtained inequality shows a trade-off relation between the operation …

We introduce action quantum speed limits (QSLs) as a family of bounds on the minimal time
to connect two states that, unlike the usual geometric approach, crucially depend on how the …

Isothermal transformations are minimally dissipative but slow processes, as the system
needs to remain close to thermal equilibrium along the protocol. Here, we show that …

We measure the quantum speed of the state evolution of the field in a weakly driven optical
cavity QED system. To this end, the mode of the electromagnetic field is considered as a …
