A Unified View on Controllability of Spin Chains — •Uwe Sander, Andreas Spörl, and Thomas Schulte-Herbrüggen — Technische Universität München, Department Chemie, Lichtenbergstr. 4, 85747 Garching

Lie theory provides a powerful tool for addressing controllability of quantum systems such as spin-chains with nearest-neighbour Ising or Heisenberg interactions. In a unified picture, we describe the family of fully controllable spin chains as well as chains whose controllability is restricted by symmetry. Even in these restricted cases Lie-algebraic tools allow one to assess whether special tasks like transferring qubit-packages from one end to the other are feasible. The results can be generalised to arbitrary spin topologies.
