• Abstract summary: In fast driving regimes the system is driven far out of equilibrium, potentially creating large amounts of unwanted entropy production. Here we prove that they consist of two discontinuous jumps in the full set of control variables. These jumps can be tuned to interpolate between processes with either minimal dissipation or minimal fluctuations, and in some situations allow for simultaneous minimisation. We illustrate our general results with rapidly driven closed quantum systems, classical bit erasure and a dissipative Ising chain driven close to a quantum phase transition.

• Abstract: To achieve efficient and reliable control of microscopic systems one should look for driving protocols that mitigate both the average dissipation and stochastic fluctuations in work. This is especially important in fast driving regimes in which the system is driven far out of equilibrium, potentially creating large amounts of unwanted entropy production. Here we characterise these optimal protocols in rapidly driven classical and quantum systems and prove that they consist of two discontinuous jumps in the full set of control variables. These jumps can be tuned to interpolate between processes with either minimal dissipation or minimal fluctuations, and in some situations allow for simultaneous minimisation. We illustrate our general results with rapidly driven closed quantum systems, classical bit erasure and a dissipative Ising chain driven close to a quantum phase transition.

  We present a framework that combines the adjoint state method together with reverse-time back-propagation to solve prohibitively large open-system quantum control problems. We apply this framework to optimize two inherently dissipative operations in superconducting qubits. Our results show that, given a fixed set of system parameters, shaping the control pulses can yield 2x improvements in the fidelity and duration for both of these operations.

  We present the first experimental demonstration of shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) for open quantum systems. We reduce the adiabatic evolution time of a single lossy mode from 800 ns to 100 ns by applying a counterdiabatic driving pulse. Our results pave the way for accelerating dynamics of open quantum systems and have potential applications in designing fast open-system protocols.
