Robustness of Quantum Systems Subject to Decoherence: Structured Singular Value Analysis?

S G Schirmer, F C Langbein, C A Weidner +1

We study the problem of robust performance of quantum systems under structured uncertainties. A specific feature of closed (Hamiltonian) quantum systems is that their poles lie on…
