Decompositions of Hilbert spaces, stability analysis and convergence probabilities for discrete-time quantum dynamical semigroups

Abstract

We investigate convergence properties of discrete-time semigroup quantum dynamics, including asymptotic stability, probability and speed of convergence to pure states and subspaces. These properties are of interest in both the analysis of uncontrolled evolutions and the engineering of controlled dynamics for quantum information processing. Our results include two Hilbert space decompositions that allow for deciding the stability of the subspace of interest and for estimating of the speed of convergence, as well as a formula to obtain the limit probability distribution for a set of orthogonal invariant subspaces.

Convergence Analysis for Discrete-Time Quantum Semigroup

Giuseppe Ilario Cirillo

In this work the asymptotic behavior of completely-positive trace-precerving maps is analyzed. First, the probabilities of converging to invariant subspaces, in the limit of infinite iteration, are studied. Next, two different decompositions of the quantum system's Hilbert space are introduced, both aimed to analyze the convergence behavior and speed. Finally the possibilities that the dynamics converges to a subspace, after a finite amount of time, is investigated

Hamiltonian Control of Quantum Dynamical Semigroups: Stabilization and Convergence Speed

F. Ticozzi, R. Lucchese, Paola Cappellaro +1 more

We consider finite-dimensional Markovian open quantum systems, and characterize the extent to which time-independent Hamiltonian control may allow to stabilize a target quantum state or subspace and optimize the resulting convergence speed. For a generic Lindblad master equation, we introduce a dissipation-induced decomposition of the associated Hilbert space, and show how it serves both as a tool to analyze global stability properties for given control resources and as the starting point to synthesize controls that ensure rapid convergence. The resulting design principles are illustrated in realistic Markovian control settings motivated by quantum information processing, including quantum-optical systems and nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond.

Computing and controlling the convergence speed of quantum dynamical semigroups

Riccardo Lucchese, Francesco Ticozzi

The speed of convergence of controlled dissipative dynamics to the desired state or set of states is critical in many tasks in experimental physics and quantum information processing. Here we focus on quantum Markovian master equations and, by exploiting the linear character of the dynamical generator, we derive an alternative characterization of the semigroups stabilizing a target subspace, as well as the asymptotic speed of convergence to the desired set. Our analysis highlights the effect of the Hamiltonian parameters (which can be considered as our controls) on the convergence speed, and suggests two basic principles for their design.

Engineering Stable Discrete-Time Quantum Dynamics via a Canonical QR Decomposition

Saverio Bolognani, Francesco Ticozzi

We analyze the asymptotic behavior of discrete-time, Markovian quantum systems with respect to a subspace of interest. Global asymptotic stability of subspaces is relevant to quantum information processing, in particular for initializing the system in pure states or subspace codes. We provide a linear-algebraic characterization of the dynamical properties leading to invariance and attractivity of a given quantum subspace. We then construct a design algorithm for discrete-time feedback control that allows to stabilize a target subspace, proving that if the control problem is feasible, then the algorithm returns an effective control choice. In order to prove this result, a canonical QR matrix decomposition is derived, and also used to establish the control scheme potential for the simulation of open-system dynamics.
