• Abstract: We apply an extension of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle to derive time-optimal controls of two-level quantum systems by means of piecewise constant pulses. Global optimal solutions are obtained for state-to-state transfer in the cases with one and two controls. Exact quantum speed limits are established as a function of the sampling period. We observe numerically an exponential convergence towards the minimum time in the continuous limit when this period goes to zero. We show that this convergence is only polynomial for a linearized quantum system. We discuss the experimental impact of this result.

• Minimum time generation of a uniform superposition in a qubit with only transverse field control [0.0]
  We consider a two-level system with a fixed energy spacing (detuning) between the two levels and a single transverse control field. We solve the problem of generating in minimum time a uniform superposition of the two quantum states when starting from one of them. We find the optimal pulse sequence to have the bang-bang form, and calculate the durations of the pulses composing it.

• Continuous sensing and parameter estimation with the boundary time-crystal [0.0]
  A boundary time-crystal is a quantum many-body system whose dynamics is governed by the competition between coherent driving and collective dissipation. We show that the best achievable sensitivity is proportional to $sqrtT N$, i.e., it follows the standard quantum limit in time and Heisenberg scaling in the particle number. We demonstrate that the standard quantum limit can be surpassed by cascading two time-crystals, where the quantum trajectories of one time-crystal are used as input for the other one.

  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.

• 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.
