Targeting in classical chaos control problems makes optimal use of the system’s exponential instabilities to direct a given initial state to a predetermined final target state. A generalization to chaotic quantum systems in the semiclassical regime is possible [1], but also requires controlling an initially localized evolving quantum state’s spreading. A coherent procedure of this kind enables directing highly excited, far-out-of-equilibrium states from an initial to some final target quantum state. Such methods have been successfully developed and applied to initially minimum uncertainty wave packets in a quantum kicked rotor system. The aim of our work is to extend those procedures to bosonic many-body systems. More specifically, we demonstrate how to make a localized quantum initial state follow special chaotic mean-field solutions of a Bose-Hubbard system toward an arbitrary localized target final state.
