Incoherent light as a control resource: a route to complete controllability of quantum systems
Alexander Pechen
We discuss the use of incoherent light as a resource to control the atomic dynamics and review the proposed in Phys. Rev. A 84, 042106 (2011) method for a controlled transfer betwe…
Engineering arbitrary pure and mixed quantum states
Alexander Pechen
This work addresses a fundamental problem of controllability of open quantum systems, meaning the ability to steer arbitrary initial system density matrix into any final density ma…
Unified analysis of terminal-time control in classical and quantum systems
Alexander Pechen, Herschel Rabitz
Many phenomena in physics, chemistry, and biology involve seeking an optimal control to maximize an objective for a classical or quantum system which is open and interacting with i…
General unifying features of controlled quantum phenomena
Alexander Pechen, Constantin Brif, Rebing Wu +2
Many proposals have been put forth for controlling quantum phenomena, including open-loop, adaptive feedback, and real-time feedback control. Each of these approaches has been view…
Optimization search effort over the control landscapes for open quantum systems with Kraus-map evolution
Anand Oza, Alexander Pechen, Jason Dominy Vincent Beltrani +2
A quantum control landscape is defined as the expectation value of a target observable as a function of the control variables. In this work control landscapes for open quantum…
Control of quantum dynamics by optimized measurements
Feng Shuang, Mianlai Zhou, Alexander Pechen +3
Quantum measurements are considered for optimal control of quantum dynamics with instantaneous and continuous observations utilized to manipulate population transfer. With an optim…
