• Abstract summary: We consider two model Hamiltonians with a continuous parameter that is partly unknown. We assess robust controllability against this parameter uncertainty using existing theoretical frameworks. We introduce a penalty term into the fidelity function to optimize control pulses, enhancing robustness against the influence of parameter fluctuations.

• Abstract: The precise implementation and manipulation of quantum gates is key to extracting advantages from future quantum technologies. Achieving this requires very accurate control over the quantum system. If one has complete knowledge about a Hamiltonian, accurate manipulation of the system is possible. However, in real scenarios, there will often be some uncertainty in the parameters of the Hamiltonian, which makes full control of the system either difficult or impossible. In this paper we consider two model Hamiltonians with a continuous parameter that is partly unknown. We assess robust controllability against this parameter uncertainty using existing theoretical frameworks and take a numerical route by discretizing the unknown parameter in the cases where we cannot predict controllability. Furthermore, we introduce a penalty term into the fidelity function to optimize control pulses, enhancing robustness against the influence of parameter fluctuations. Within our framework, we analyze the qualitative differences in the robust controllability of the two systems.

  We consider a discrete optimization formulation of a binary optimal quantum control problem involving Hamiltonians with predictable uncertainties. We propose a sample-based reformulation that optimize both risk-neutral and risk-averse measurements of control policies. We demonstrate that the controls of our model achieve significantly higher quality and robustness compared to the controls of a deterministic model.

  Quantum systems with dynamical symmetries have conserved quantities which are preserved under coherent controls. Incoherent control can increase the maximal attainable transition probability. We show that all critical points are global maxima, global minima, saddle points and second order traps.

  We describe the similarities, differences, and advantages of two approaches to optimal control theory. We show that the control mechanisms are generally equivalent, except when the decoherence is not negligible. In this latter case, the precision achieved with selective controls can be several orders of magnitude better than that given by the QFI.

  Capturing uncertainty in models of complex dynamical systems is crucial to designing safe controllers. Several approaches use formal abstractions to synthesize policies that satisfy temporal specifications related to safety and reachability. Our contribution is a novel abstraction-based controller method for continuous-state models with noise, uncertain parameters, and external disturbances.
