Control of Stochastic Quantum Systems with Decomposable Target State

Abstract

We propose a Lyapunov-based control method for stochastic quantum systems. The method can make the quantum state converge to a separable mixed target state from an arbitrary initial state. Specifically, the target state can be written as the tensor product of two matrices. Based on a well designed virtual mechanical quantity, a Lyapunov function and two control laws are presented: one can make the system equilibria in the largest invariant set stable according to LaSalle's invariance principle, and the other one can make the target state globally asymptotically stable.

Rapid stabilization of stochastic quantum systems in a unified framework

Jie Wen, Fangmin Wang, Yuanhao Shi +2 more

Rapid stabilization of general stochastic quantum systems is investigated based on the rapid stability of stochastic differential equations. We introduce a Lyapunov–LaSalle-like theorem for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems first, based on which a unified framework of rapidly stabilizing stochastic quantum systems is proposed. According to the proposed unified framework, we design the switching state feedback controls to achieve the rapid stabilization of single-qubit systems, two-qubit systems, and N-qubit systems. From the unified framework, the state space is divided into two state subspaces, and the target state is located in one state subspace, while the other system equilibria are located in the other state subspace. Under the designed state feedback controls, the system state can only transit through the boundary between the two state subspaces no more than two times, and the target state is globally asymptotically stable in probability. In particular, the system state can converge exponentially in (all or part of) the state subspace where the target state is located. Moreover, the effectiveness and rapidity of the designed state feedback controls are shown in numerical simulations by stabilizing GHZ states for a three-qubit system.

Convergent control strategy of state in open quantum systems

Shuang Cong, Fei Yang

A control strategy of quantum states of open quantum system based on Lyapunov method is proposed. On the basis of choosing the average of observable operators as a Lyapunov function, the control laws are designed in interaction picture. We analyze the largest invariant set of the controlled system via Barbalat's Lemma. Based on some assumptions of Hamiltonians, we propose a sufficient condition of the observable operator to guarantee the convergence of the open quantum system, and proof that the proposed strategy can make any pure target state in decoherence-free subspace be globally asymptotic stable under the sufficient condition. Also, we provide a method to construct the observable operator via Schmidt orthogonalization. Numerical experiments on a three-level system validate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

CONVERGENCE OF STATE CONTROL OF OPEN QUANTUM SYSTEM IN DECOHERENCE-FREE SUBSPACES

Fei Yang

A convergent state control strategy of open quantum system based on Lyapunov method is proposed for the target state being a pure state in decoherence-free subspaces. Based on the assumptions of all the transition frequencies being different and all the levels being directly coupled,a sufficient condition is proposed for the observation operator to make that the largest invariant set only contains target state.On the basis of choosing the average of observable operators as a Lyapunov function,the control laws are designed in interaction picture and the largest invariant set of the controlled system is analyzed via Barbalat's Lemma. It is shown that any pure target state in decoherence-free subspace is globally asymptotic stable under the sufficient condition given,and the system controlled could be transferred to target state from arbitrary initial state.Also,a method is provided to construct the observation operator via Schmidt orthogonalization.Numerical experiments on a three-level system verify the validity of the proposed control strategy.

Global stabilization of an eigenstate for stochastic quantum systems

Shuang Cong, Jie Wen, Sen Kuang +1 more

The global stabilization of an eigenstate for finite dimensional stochastic quantum systems with non-diagonal free Hamiltonian and non-regular measurement operator is studied in this paper. A two-part switching control strategy is proposed, in which a constant control is used to steer the system state to enter the convergence domain; another control law, which is designed based on Lyapunov stability theorem is used to attract the system state in convergence domain to the target state. The convergence of the target eigenstate from an arbitrary initial state is strictly proved. Moreover, the numerical experiments on a three dimensional stochastic quantum system are implemented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the control proposed.

Lyapunov-based feedback control of two-level stochastic open quantum systems

Shahid Qamar, Shuang Cong, Bilal Riaz

In this paper, a Lyapunov-based feedback control (LFC) is proposed for the state transfer of a two-level stochastic quantum system. The quantum state is described in the Cartesian coordinate system. An exponential function is selected as the Lyapunov function to ensure the stability of the system. The Lyapunov-based feedback control strategy is designed according to the stochastic Lyapunov stability theorem. Numerical simulations results show that the proposed LFC strategy has the ability to transfer the stochastic system from any initial mixed state to the desired eigenstate, and the LFC has high convergence rate and high state transfer fidelity.
