Entropy of the quantum work distribution
Anthony Kiely, Eoin O'Connor, Thomás Fogarty +2
The statistics of work done on a quantum system can be quantified by the two-point measurement scheme. We show how the Shannon entropy of the work distribution admits a general upp…
Minimal action control method in quantum critical models
Ainur Kazhybekova, Steve Campbell, Anthony Kiely
We present a general protocol to control closed quantum systems that is based on minimising the adiabatic action. Using tools based on the geometry of quantum evolutions through th…
Non-Gaussian work statistics at finite-time driving
Krissia Zawadzki, Anthony Kiely, Gabriel T. Landi +1
We study properties of the work distribution of a many-body system driven through a quantum phase transition in finite time. We focus on the non-Gaussianity of the distribution, wh…
Improved anharmonic trap expansion through enhanced shortcuts to adiabaticity
C. Whitty, A. Kiely, A. Ruschhaupt
Shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) have been successfully applied both theoretically and experimentally to a wide variety of quantum control tasks. In previous work the authors have d…
Classical dissipative cost of quantum control
Anthony Kiely, Steve Campbell, Gabriel T. Landi
Protocols for non-adiabatic quantum control often require the use of classical time varying fields. Assessing the thermodynamic cost of such protocols, however, is far from trivial…
Optimal Control in Disordered Quantum Systems
Luuk Coopmans, Steve Campbell, Gabriele De Chiara +1
We investigate several control strategies for the transport of an excitation along a spin chain. We demonstrate that fast, high fidelity transport can be achieved using protocols d…
