ANALISIS DE COTAS INFERIORES PARA TIEMPOS DE CONTROL Y SU RELACIÓN CON EL LÍMITE DE VELOCIDADES CUÁNTICO

Resumen

Limitations to the speed of evolution of quantum systems, typically referred to as quantum speed limits (QSLs), have important consequences for quantum control problems. However, in its standard formulation, is not straightforward to obtain meaningful QSL bounds for time-dependent Hamiltonians with unknown control parameters. In this paper we present a short introductory overview of quantum speed limit for unitary dynamics and its connection to quantum control. We then analyze potential methods for obtaining new bounds on control times inspired by the QSL. We finally extend the work in [Poggi, Lombardo and Wisniacki EPL 104 40005 (2013)] by studying the properties and limitations of these new bounds in the context of a driven two-level quantum system.
