• Abstract: In quantum information processing, the development of fast and robust control schemes remains a central challenge. Although quantum adiabatic evolution is inherently robust against control errors, it typically demands long evolution times. In this work, we propose to achieve rapid adiabatic evolution, in which nonadiabatic transitions induced by fast changes in the system Hamiltonian are mitigated by flipping the nonadiabatic transition matrix using $\pi$ pulses. This enables a faster realization of adiabatic evolution while preserving its robustness. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our scheme in both two-level and three-level systems. Numerical simulations show that, for the same evolution duration, our scheme achieves higher fidelity and significantly suppresses nonadiabatic transitions compared to the traditional STIRAP protocol.

• Modulated time evolution for efficient variational ground-state preparation [0.3500606062315213]
  Method is easy to implement and requires no complex counter-diabatic Hamiltonians and no prior knowledge of the system's energy gap. When the time evolution is further Trotterized, separating the spin-spin coupling terms and the magnetic-field terms into distinct factors, it becomes identical in structure to the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) Compared to QAOA, the modulated time evolution often achieves the same level of performance with fewer layers (time steps)
