Abstract

We propose a method of accelerating the speed of evolution of an open system by an external classical driving field for a qubit in a zero-temperature structured reservoir. It is shown that, with a judicious choice of the driving strength of the applied classical field, a speed-up evolution of an open system can be achieved in both the weak system-environment couplings and the strong system-environment couplings. By considering the relationship between non-Makovianity of environment and the classical field, we can drive the open system from the Markovian to the non-Markovian regime by manipulating the driving strength of the classical field. That is the intrinsic physical reason that the classical field may induce the speed-up process. In addition, the role of this classical field on the variation of quantum evolution speed in the whole decoherence process is discussed.

Classical driving-assisted quantum evolution speedup

Hu-Ping Peng, Zhi-guang Tan, Hai-jie Peng +1 more

Abstract In this study, we propose accelerating the qubit evolution using external classical driving fields in open systems. The results show that the quantum speed limit is determined by the driving strength, population of the initial excited state, and quantum coherence of the initial state. In the Markovian regime, the evolution of the open system will be accelerated by increasing the driving strength, while in non-Markovian regime, the evolution of the open system will present acceleration and deceleration periodically. Moreover, in both Markovian and non-Markovian regime, the population of the initial excited state and the initial-state coherence always can make the quantum speed limit bound tighter.

Control of quantum dynamics: Non-Markovianity and the speedup of the open system evolution

Ying-Jie Zhang, Yun‐Jie Xia, Heng Fan

We illustrate a scheme for implementing a non-Markovian speedup evolution of an open system weakly interacting with a controllable environment: the coupled qubit-array. By controlling the environment, for instance by choosing a judicious nearest-neighbor excitation quanta hopping strength among the qubit-array or by changing the number of qubits coupled to the quantum system, two dynamical crossovers from Markovian to non-Markovian and from no-speedup to speedup are achieved in the weak system-environment coupling regime. For the weaker system-environment coupling, the larger hopping strength (or the larger qubits number) should be tuned to drive the non-Markovian speedup evolution. Particularly, the controllable non-Markovian dynamics is the intrinsic physical reason for the speedup evolution of a quantum system.

Quantum speedup via engineering multiple environments

Minglun Mo, Jing Wang, Yunan Wu

Evolution speed of an open quantum system is vividly influenced by the structure of environments. The strong system‐environment coupling is found to be able to accelerate quantum evolution. In this work, we propose a different method of governing the quantum speedup via engineering multiple environments. It is shown that, with a judicious choice of the number of coupling environments, the quantum speedup of an open system can be achieved even under weak system‐environment coupling conditions. The mechanism for the speedup is due to the switch between Markovian and non‐Markovian regions by manipulating the number of the surrounding environments. In addition, we verify the above phenomena by using quantum dots embedded in a planar photonic crystal under current technologies. These results provide a new degree of freedoms to accelerate quantum evolution of open systems. The strong system‐environment coupling can speed up the quantum evolution process. This work shows that, via engineering multiple environments, one can speed up the evolution process even under weak coupling conditions.

Thermal quantum speed limit for classical-driving open systems

W.-J. Wu, K. Yan, Yinzhong Wu +1 more

Quantum speed limit (QSL) time for open systems driven by classical fields is studied in the presence of thermal bosonic environments. The decoherence process is quantitatively described by the time convolutionless master equation. The evolution speed of an open system can be accelerated by means of driving classical fields at finite temperatures. It is found out that the structural reservoir at low temperature may contribute to the acceleration of quantum evolution. The manifest oscillation of QSL time happens under the circumstance of classical driving field. The scaling property of QSL for entangled systems is also investigated. It is demonstrated that the entanglement of open systems can be considered as one kind of resource for improving the potential capacity of thermal quantum speedup.

Coherent-driving-assisted quantum speedup in Markovian channels*

Xiang Lu, Yingjie Zhang, Yun‐Jie Xia

As is well known, the quantum evolution speed of quantum state can never be accelerated in the Markovian regime without any operators on the system. The Hamiltonian corrections induced by the action of coherent driving forces are often used to fight dissipative and decoherence mechanisms in experiments. For this reason, considering three noisy channels (the phase-flip channel, the amplitude damping channel and the depolarizing channel), we propose a scheme of speedup evolution of an open system by controlling an external unitary coherent driving operator on the system. It is shown that, in the presence of the coherent driving, no-speedup evolution can be transformed into quantum speedup evolution in the Markovian dynamics process. Additionally, under the fixed coherent driving strength in the above three noisy channels, the best way to achieve the most degree of quantum speedup for the system has been acquired by rotating the system with appropriate driving direction angles, respectively. Finally, we conclude that the reason for this acceleration is not the non-Markovian dynamical behavior of the system but due to the oscillation of geometric distance between the initial state and the target final state.

Quantum speed-up based on classical-field and moving-qubit

Jianhe Yang, Rongfang Liu, Hong‐Mei Zou +2 more

In this work, we provide a model of a moving-qubit interacting with the multimode cavity, where the qubit is driven by the classical field. We obtain the analytic solution of the density operator of the qubit, then investigate the quantum speed limit time(QSLT) and the non-Markovianity based on the classical field and the moving-velocity. The results show that the transition from Markovian to non-Markovian dynamics is the intrinsic physical reason of the quantum speed-up process, both of the driving field and the strong coupling can enhance the non-Markovianity in the dynamics process and speed up the evolution of the qubit, but the moving velocity of the qubit can decrease the non-Markovianity in dynamics process and delay the evolution of qubit. To some extent, the classical field can reduce the effect of the moving velocity of the qubit on the quantum evolution process.
