Fast-forward of adiabatic dynamics in quantum mechanics

Abstract

We propose a method to accelerate adiabatic dynamics of wave functions (WFs) in quantum mechanics to obtain a final adiabatic state except for the spatially uniform phase in any desired short time. In our previous work, acceleration of the dynamics of WFs was shown to obtain the final state in any short time by applying driving potential. We develop the previous theory of fast-forward to derive a driving potential for the fast-forward of adiabatic dynamics. A typical example is the fast-forward of adiabatic transport of a WF, which is the ideal transport in the sense that a stationary WF is transported to an aimed position in any desired short time without leaving any disturbance at the final time of the fast-forward. As other important examples, we show accelerated manipulations of WFs, such as their splitting and squeezing. The theory is also applicable to macroscopic quantum mechanics described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.

Acceleration of adiabatic quantum dynamics in electromagnetic fields

Shumpei Masuda, Katsuhiro Nakamura

We show a method to accelerate quantum adiabatic dynamics of wave functions under electromagnetic field (EMF) by developing the preceding theory [Masuda and Nakamura, Proc. R. Soc. London Ser. A 466, 1135 (2010)]. Treating the orbital dynamics of a charged particle in EMF, we derive the driving field which accelerates quantum adiabatic dynamics in order to obtain the final adiabatic states in any desired short time. The scheme is consolidated by describing a way to overcome possible singularities in both the additional phase and driving potential due to nodes proper to wave functions under EMF. As explicit examples, we exhibit the fast forward of adiabatic squeezing and transport of excited Landau states with nonzero angular momentum, obtaining the result consistent with the transitionless quantum driving applied to the orbital dynamics in EMF.

Fast-forward of quantum adiabatic dynamics in electro-magnetic field

Shumpei Masuda, Katsuhiro Nakamura

We show a method to accelerate quantum adiabatic dynamics of wavefunctions under electro-magnetic field by developing the previous theory (Masuda & Nakamura 2008 and 2010). Firstly we investigate the orbital dynamics of a charged particle. We derive the driving field which accelerates quantum adiabatic dynamics in order to obtain the final adiabatic states except for the spatially uniform phase such as the adiabatic phase in any desired short time. Fast-forward of adiabatic squeezing and transport in the electro-magnetic field is exhibited. Secondly we investigate spin dynamics under the magnetic field, showing the fast-forward of adiabatic spin inversion and of adiabatic dynamics in Landau-Zener model. The connection of the present framework with Kato-Berry's transitionless quantum driving is elucidated in Appendix.

Fast-forward problem in quantum mechanics

Shumpei Masuda, Katsuhiro Nakamura

We show the way to speed up the time evolution of a wave function (WF), i.e., to fast-forward the WF in microscopic and macroscopic quantum mechanics, by controlling the driving potential with resultant regulation of the additional phase of the WF, so that a target state is obtained in a shorter time. We first present a general framework of the fast-forwarding of a WF in quantum mechanics and provide an example of the fast-forward of a WF in two-dimensional (2D) free space. Then the framework of the fast-forward is extended to macroscopic quantum mechanics described by the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. We show the fast-forward of (i) transport of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped by a moving 2D harmonic potential and (ii) propagation of a soliton both in free space and through a potential barrier (: macroscopic quantum tunneling).

Wave function regulation to accelarate adiabatic dynamics in quantum mechanics

Iwan Setiawan, Bobby Eka Gunara, Katsuhiro Nakamura

The theory to accelerate system on quantum dynamics has been constructed to get the desired wave funtion on shorter time. This theory is developed on adiabatic quantum dynamics wich any regulation is done on wave function that satisfy Schrodinger equation. As an example we show accelerated manipulation of WFs with use of a parameter-dependent asymmetric double-well potential. The theory is also applicable to macroscopic quantum mechanics described by non linier Schrödinger equation.

Acceleration of adiabatic transport of interacting particles and rapid manipulations of a dilute Bose gas in the ground state

Shumpei Masuda

We show a method to accelerate quantum adiabatic transport of identical spinless particles interacting with each other by developing the preceding fast-forward scaling theory formed for one-particle systems [Masuda and Nakamura, Proc. R. Soc. A 466, 1135 (2010)]. We derive a driving potential which accelerates adiabatic dynamics of quantum systems composed of identical particles in order to obtain the final adiabatic states in any desired short time. We also exhibit an ideal rapid manipulation of dilute Bose gas in the ground state without energy excitation by using the fast-forward scaling theory.

Fast forward of adiabatic control of tunneling states

Katsuhiro Nakamura, Anvar Khujakulov, S. K. Avazbaev +1 more

By developing the preceding work on the fast forward of transient phenomena of quantum tunneling by Khujakulov and Nakamura [Phys. Rev. A 93, 022101 (2016)], we propose a scheme of the exact fast forward of adiabatic control of stationary tunneling states with use of the electromagnetic field. The idea allows the acceleration of both the amplitude and phase of wave functions throughout the fast-forward time range. The scheme realizes the fast-forward observation of the transport coefficients under the adiabatically changing barrier with the fixed energy of an incoming particle. As typical examples, we choose systems with (1) Eckart's potential with tunable asymmetry and (2) double $\ensuremath{\delta}$-function barriers under tunable relative height. We elucidate the driving electric field to guarantee the stationary tunneling state during a rapid change of the barrier and evaluate both the electric-field-induced temporary deviation of transport coefficients from their stationary values and the modulation of the phase of complex scattering coefficients.
