Enhancement of quantum speed limit time due to cooperative effects in multilevel systems

Pablo M. Poggi, Fernando C. Lombardo, Diego A. Wisniacki

Deriving minimum evolution times is of paramount importance in quantum mechanics. Bounds on the speed of evolution are given by the so called quantum speed limit (QSL). In this work we use quantum optimal control methods to study the QSL for driven many level systems which exhibit local two-level interactions in the form of avoided crossings (ACs). Remarkably, we find that optimal evolution times are proportionally smaller than those predicted by the well-known two-level case, even when the ACs are isolated. We show that the physical mechanism for such enhancement is due to non-trivial cooperative effects between the AC and other levels, which are dynamically induced by the shape of the optimized control field.

Attainable quantum speed limit for N -dimensional quantum systems

Zi-yi Mai, Chang‐shui Yu

The quantum speed limit (QSL) is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics, providing a lower bound on the evolution time. The attainability of the QSL, which greatly depends on the understanding of the QSL, is a long-standing open problem, especially for high-dimensional systems. In this paper, we solve this problem by establishing a QSL suitable and attainable for both open and closed quantum systems based on a new proposed state distance. It is shown that, given any initial state in a certain finite dimension, unitary and nonunitary dynamics can always be found to attain our QSL bound in the corresponding dimension, and for any given Hamiltonian for a unitary evolution a pair of states always exists, attaining the bound. As applications, we demonstrate the QSL time attained by various physical settings. This paper will shed light on the QSL problems.

Excited-state quantum phase transition and the quantum-speed-limit time

Qian Wang, Francisco Pérez-Bernal

We investigate the influence of an excited-state quantum phase transition on the quantum-speed-limit time of an open quantum system. The system consists of a central qubit coupled to a spin environment modeled by a Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick Hamiltonian. We show that when the coupling between qubit and environment is such that the latter is located at the critical energy of the excited-state quantum phase transition, the qubit evolution shows a remarkable slowdown, marked by an abrupt peak in the quantum-speed-limit time. Interestingly, this slowdown at the excited-state quantum phase transition critical point is induced by the singular behavior of the qubit decoherence rate, being independent of the Markovian nature of the environment.
