Abstract

Some models of linear control system schemas are developed here for quantum linear systems. The most important linear devices in quantum optics are introduced with their differential equations. These linear quantum systems are zero-order and first-order transfer functions with one pole and one zero. We mathematical compute transfer function of different interconnections by using zero-order and first-order systems. for instance, by designing series and feedback interconnection, we will obtain higher-order quantum linear systems. Also, we will analyze a closed-loop feedback of a first-order linear quantum system containing a gain in feedback path

Transfer function approach to quantum control- part I: dynamics of quantum feedback systems

M. Yanagisawa, Hidenori Kimura

This paper gives a unified approach to feedback control theory of quantum mechanical systems of bosonic modes described by noncommutative operators. A quantum optical closed-loop, including a plant and controller, is developed and its fundamental structural properties are analyzed extensively from a purely quantum mechanical point of view, in order to facilitate the use of control theory in microscopic world described by quantum theory. In particular, an input-output description of quantum mechanical systems which is essential in describing the behavior of the feedback systems is fully formulated and developed. This would then provide a powerful tool for quantum control and pave an avenue that connects control theory to quantum dynamics. This paper is divided into two parts. The first part is devoted to the basic formulation of quantum feedback control via quantum communication and local operations on an optical device, cavity, that can be regarded as a unit of quantum dynamics of bosonic modes. The formulation introduced in this paper presents the feature intrinsic in quantum feedback systems based on quantum stochastic differential equations. The input-output description provides a basis for developing quantum feedback control through the transfer function representation of quantum feedback systems. In the follow-up paper, the quantum mechanical representation of feedback is further elaborated to yield the control theoretical representation of fundamental notions of quantum theory, uncertainty principle, e.g., and some applications are presented.

Control and robustness for quantum linear systems

Ian R. Petersen

This paper surveys some recent results on the feedback control of quantum linear systems and the robustness properties of these systems. Quantum linear systems are a class of systems whose dynamics, which are described by the laws of quantum mechanics, take the specific form of a set of linear quantum stochastic differential equations (QSDEs). These systems can also be described in terms of a Hamiltonian operator H and a coupling operator L, which in the case of quantum linear systems have a specific quadratic and linear form respectively. Such systems commonly arise in the area of quantum optics and related disciplines. Systems whose dynamics can be described or approximated by linear QSDEs include interconnections of optical cavities, beam-splitters, phase-shifters, optical parametric amplifiers, optical squeezers, and cavity quantum electrodynamic systems. An important approach to the feedback control of quantum linear systems involves the use of a controller which itself is a quantum linear system. This approach to quantum feedback control, referred to as coherent quantum feedback control, has the advantage that it does not destroy quantum information, is fast, and has the potential for efficient implementation. The paper discusses recent results concerning the synthesis of coherent quantum controllers such as in coherent quantum H∞ control. Another important issue in the design of quantum feedback controllers is the robustness of the closed loop quantum system to perturbations in the quantum plant dynamics arising from perturbations in the system Hamiltonian H and the system coupling operator L. The paper discusses recent robust stability results for such perturbed quantum systems which take the form of a quantum small gain theorem and a quantum Popov stability criterion. These results are usefu

Analysis of Linear Quantum Optical Networks

Ian R. Petersen

This paper is concerned with the analysis of linear quantum optical networks. It provides a systematic approach to the construction a model for a given quantum network in terms of a system of quantum stochastic differential equations. This corresponds to a classical state space model. The linear quantum optical networks under consideration consist of interconnections between optical cavities, optical squeezers, and beamsplitters. These models can then be used in the design of quantum feedback control systems for these networks.

Linear quantum feedback networks

John Edward Gough, Rolf Gohm, M. Yanagisawa

The mathematical theory of quantum feedback networks has recently been developed [J. Gough and M. R. James, e-print arXiv:0804.3442v2] for general open quantum dynamical systems interacting with bosonic input fields. In this article we show, for the special case of linear dynamical Markovian systems with instantaneous feedback connections, that the transfer functions can be deduced and agree with the algebraic rules obtained in the nonlinear case. Using these rules, we derive the transfer functions for linear quantum systems in series, in cascade, and in feedback arrangements mediated by beam splitter devices.

On transfer function realizations for Linear Quantum Stochastic Systems

Symeon Grivopoulos, Hendra I. Nurdin, Ian R. Petersen

The realization of transfer functions of Linear Quantum Stochastic Systems (LQSSs) is an issue of fundamental importance for the practical applications of such systems, especially as coherent controllers for other quantum systems. In this paper, we review two realization methods proposed by the authors in [1], [2], [3], [4]. The first one uses a cascade of a static linear quantum-optical network and single-mode optical cavities, while the second uses a feedback network of such cavities, along with static linear quantum-optical networks that pre- and post-process the cavity network inputs and outputs.
