• Abstract: In this paper, we derive sharp lower bounds, also known as quantum speed limits, for the time it takes to transform a quantum system into a state such that an observable assumes its lowest average value. We assume that the system is initially in an incoherent state relative to the observable and that the state evolves according to a von Neumann equation with a Hamiltonian whose bandwidth is uniformly bounded. The transformation time depends intricately on the observable's and the initial state's eigenvalue spectrum and the relative constellation of the associated eigenspaces. The problem of finding quantum speed limits consequently divides into different cases requiring different strategies. We derive quantum speed limits in a large number of cases, and we simultaneously develop a method to break down complex cases into manageable ones. The derivations involve both combinatorial and differential geometric techniques. We also study multipartite systems and show that allowing correlations between the parts can speed up the transformation time. In a final section, we use the quantum speed limits to obtain upper bounds on the power with which energy can be extracted from quantum batteries.

  We extend the notion of quantum speed limits to collections of quantum states. For two-qubit systems, we show that the fastest transformation implements two Hadamards and a swap of the qubits simultaneously. For qutrit systems the evolution time depends on the particular type of the unbiased basis.

• Quantum Speed Limit From Tighter Uncertainty Relation [0.0]
  We prove a new quantum speed limit using the tighter uncertainty relations for pure quantum systems undergoing arbitrary unitary evolution. We show that the MT bound is a special case of the tighter quantum speed limit derived here. We illustrate the tighter speed limit for pure states with examples using random Hamiltonians and show that the new quantum speed limit outperforms the MT bound.

• Stochastic approximate state conversion for entanglement and general quantum resource theories [41.94295877935867]
  An important problem in any quantum resource theory is to determine how quantum states can be converted into each other. Very few results have been presented on the intermediate regime between probabilistic and approximate transformations. We show that these bounds imply an upper bound on the rates for various classes of states under probabilistic transformations. We also show that the deterministic version of the single copy bounds can be applied for drawing limitations on the manipulation of quantum channels.

• Optimal bounds on the speed of subspace evolution [77.34726150561087]
  In contrast to the basic Mandelstam-Tamm inequality, we are concerned with a subspace subject to the Schroedinger evolution. By using the concept of maximal angle between subspaces we derive optimal bounds on the speed of such a subspace evolution. These bounds may be viewed as further generalizations of the Mandelstam-Tamm inequality.

• Observing crossover between quantum speed limits [0.0]
  Two well-known quantum speed limits are the Mandelstam-Tamm and the Margolus-Levitin bounds. Here, we test concurrently both limits in a multi-level system by following the motion of a single atom in an optical trap. Our data reveal two different regimes: one where the Mandelstam-Tamm limit constrains the evolution at all times, and a second where a crossover to the Margolus-Levitin limit is manifested at longer times.
