We present a new analysis on the quantum control for a quantum system coupled to a quantum probe. This analysis is based on the coherent control for the quantum system and a hypothesis that the probe can be prepared in specified initial states. The results show that a quantum system can be manipulated by probe state-dependent coherent control. In this sense, the present analysis provides a new control scheme which combines the coherent control and state preparation technology.

Theories of quantum control have, until recently, made the assumption that the Hilbert space of a quantum system can be truncated to finite dimensions. Such truncations, which can be achieved for most quantum systems via bandwidth restrictions, have enabled the development of a rich variety of quantum control and optimal control schemes. Recent studies in quantum information processing have addressed the control of infinite-dimensional quantum systems such as the quantum states of a trapped-ion. Controllability in an infinite-dimensional quantum system is hard to prove with conventional methods, and infinite-dimensional systems provide unique challenges in designing control fields. In this paper, we will discuss the control of a popular system for quantum computing the trapped-ion qubit. This system, modeled by a spin-half particle coupled to a quantized harmonic oscillator, is an example for a surprisingly rich variety of control problems. We will show how this infinite-dimensional quantum system can be examined via the lens of the Finite Controllability Theorem, two-color STIRAP, the generalized Heisenberg system, etc. These results are important from the viewpoint of developing more efficient quantum control protocols, particularly in quantum computing systems. This work shows how one can expand the scope of quantum control research to beyond that of finite-dimensional quantum systems.

For a quantum system interacting with its environment, the role of state preparation is nontrivial. The reason is that before the state preparation procedure, the system and the environment are correlated. Consequently, the state preparation procedure (which acts on the system) indirectly influences the state of the environment depending on the state preparation. In this paper, we use an experimentally realizable model describing a collection of N two-level atoms coupled to a common environment to investigate the influence of the state preparation procedure. We show that the dynamical map describing the evolution of the open quantum system can depend appreciably on the state preparation procedure. Moreover, this effect can be enhanced by increasing N. Our results should be useful for quantum control and quantum tomography.

We consider two alternative procedures which can be used to control the evolution of a generic finite-dimensional quantum system, one hinging upon a strong continuous coupling with a control potential and the other based on the application of frequently repeated pulses onto the system. Despite the practical and conceptual difference between them, they lead to the same dynamics, characterised by a partitioning of the Hilbert space into sectors among which transitions are inhibited by dynamical superselection rules.

An Introduction to Quantum OptomechanicsWe provide an introduction to the description of mechanical systems in the quantum regime, and provide a review of the various types of micro-scale and nano-scale optomechanical and electromechanical systems. The aim is to achieve quantum control of micromechanical and nanomechanical resonators using the electromagnetic field. Such control requires the demonstration of state preparation (in particular, cooling to the ground state), coherent control and quantum-limited measurement. These problems are discussed in turn. Some particular problems in force detection, metrology, nonlinear optomechanics and many-body optomechanics are also discussed.

A modal control scheme for rotating disc systems is developed based upon the finite-dimensional sub-system model including a few lower backward travelling waves important to the disc response. For the single discrete sensor and actuator system, a polynomial equation, which determines the closed-loop system poles, is derived and the spillover effect is analysed, providing a sufficient condition for stability. Finally, simulation studies are performed to show the effectiveness of the travelling wave control scheme proposed.

We formulate some properties of a set of several mutually unbiased measurements. These properties are used for deriving entropic uncertainty relations. Applications of mutually unbiased measurements in entanglement detection are also revisited. First, we estimate from above the sum of the indices of coincidence for several mutually unbiased measurements. Further, we derive entropic uncertainty relations in terms of the Rényi and Tsallis entropies. Both the state-dependent and state-independent formulations are obtained. Using the two sets of local mutually unbiased measurements, a method of entanglement detection in bipartite finite-dimensional systems may be realized. A certain trade-off between a sensitivity of the scheme and its experimental complexity is discussed.

In the paper, we show that for a class of linear plants, although the common linear control can be used to stabilize them, the step responses of the resulting closed-loop systems must have overshoot; however, a simple switching between them may avoid the overshoot. This indicates that switching control may overcome the performance limitation of linear feedback control in the overshoot-avoidance respect. A simple switching control scheme with such a quality is exploited and the conditions for its existence are presented. In the scheme, two common controllers are needed and they are only required to guarantee no overshoot on the time intervals [0, ts) and [ts, ∞), respectively, where ts denotes the switching time. For actual implementation, a state-dependent version of the switching control law is developed. Two examples are presented to show its effectiveness.

It is shown that the whirligig principle can be used for stabilization of the initial states of some classical and quantum systems. This feature of the whirligig principle is demonstrated by simple examples. The most important result of this work is the proof of the fact that the stabilization of the excited states of quantum systems can be realized by acting not on the quantum system itself, but by acting on the states into which the system must go. Potentially, this result can be used to stabilize excited nuclear systems.
