Designing a hybrid quantum controller for strongly eigenstate controllable systems

 In this paper, a new quantum hybrid controller for controlling the strongly eigenstate controllable systems, is designed. For this purpose, a Lyapunov control law is implemented when the target state is in reachable set of the initial state. On the other hand, if the target state is not in the reachable set of the given initial state, based on Grover algorithm, a new interface state that the t...

Thermalization of quantum systems by finite baths

– We consider a discrete quantum system coupled to a finite bath, which may consist of only one particle, in contrast to the standard baths which usually consist of continua of oscillators, spins, etc. We find that such finite baths may nevertheless equilibrate the system though not necessarily in the way predicted by standard open system techniques. This behavior results regardless of the init...

Landauer-Büttiker Approach to Strongly Coupled Quantum Thermodynamics: Inside-Outside Duality of Entropy Evolution.

We develop a Landauer-Büttiker theory of entropy evolution in time-dependent, strongly coupled electron systems. The formalism naturally avoids the problem of the system-bath distinction by defining the entropy current in the attached leads. This current can then be used to infer changes of the entropy of the system which we refer to as the inside-outside duality. We carry out this program in a...

Strongly coupled quantum field theory

We analyze numerically a two-dimensional λφ theory showing that in the limit of a strong coupling λ → ∞ just the homogeneous solutions for time evolution are relevant in agreement with the duality principle in perturbation theory as presented in [M.Frasca, Phys. Rev. A 58, 3439 (1998)], being negligible the contribution of the spatial varying parts of the dynamical equations. A consequence is t...
