• Abstract: We study the problem of robust performance of quantum systems under structured uncertainties. A specific feature of closed (Hamiltonian) quantum systems is that their poles lie on the imaginary axis and that neither a coherent controller nor physically relevant structured uncertainties can alter this situation. This changes for open systems where decoherence ensures asymptotic stability and creates a unique landscape of pure performance robustness, with the distinctive feature that closed-loop stability is secured by the underlying physics and needs not be enforced. This stability, however, is often detrimental to quantum-enhanced performance, and additive perturbations of the Hamiltonian give rise to dynamic generators that are nonlinear in the perturbed parameters, invalidating classical paradigms to assess robustness to structured perturbations such as singular value analysis. This problem is addressed using a fixed-point iteration approach to determine a maximum perturbation strength $\delta_{\max}$ that ensures that the transfer function remains bounded, $||T_\delta||<\delta^{-1}$ for $\delta<\delta_{\max}$.

• Sensitivity Bounds for Quantum Control and Time-Domain Performance Guarantees [0.0]
  We provide analytical bounds on the differential sensitivity of the gate fidelity error to structured uncertainties for a closed quantum system controlled by piecewise-constant, optimal control fields. We then use these differential sensitivity bounds to provide conditions that guarantee performance, quantified by the fidelity error, in the face of parameter uncertainty.

  A method to quantify robust performance for situations where structured parameter variations and initial state errors are the main performance limiting factors is presented. The approach is based on the error dynamics, the difference between nominal and perturbed dynamics, driven by either the unperturbed or perturbed state.

  Unavoidable coupling of quantum systems to external degrees of freedom leads to dissipative (non-unitary) dynamics. We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.

• Robust Control Performance for Open Quantum Systems [0.0]
  A formalism is developed to measure performance based on the transmission of a dynamic perturbation or initial state preparation error. A difficulty arising from the singularity of the closed-loop Bloch equations for the quantum state is overcome by introducing the #-inversion lemma. Additional difficulties occur when symmetry gives rise to multiple open-loop poles, which under symmetry-breaking unfold into single eigenvalues.

This yields generalization bounds depending on the behavior of the best model, and leads to the first-ever-known fast bounds in the low-noise setting. To our best knowledge, this gives the firstever-known stability and generalization for SGD with even non-differentiable loss functions.
