Optimal Control of Open Quantum Systems: Markovian and non-Markovian — •Thomas Schulte-Herbrüggen1, Andreas Spörl1, Patrick Rebentrost2,3, Frank Wilhelm3, and Steffen Glaser1 — 1Technical University Munich (TUM), 85747 Garching — 2Harvard University, Cambridge MA, USA — 3Institute for Quantum Computation (IQC), Waterloo, Canada
For realistic examples of Markovian and non-Markovian open quantum systems we show how optimal controls obtained numerically [1] typically cut errors by one order of magnitude [2,3,4]. The examples include spin- and pseudo-spin systems, e.g., capacitively coupled charge qubits. The setting can easily be generalised to arbitrary N-level systems. — We sketch the relation between time-optimal and relaxation-optimised controls in the light of new pictures emerging in terms of Lie semigroups [5]. — Implications for quantum CISC-compilation [6] in large systems (≥100 qubits) are given as well as an outlook on how to assemble CISC modules in a decoherence-protected way.
