We consider fast high-fidelity quantum control by using a shortcut to adiabaticity (STA) technique and optimal control theory (OCT). Three specific examples, including expansion of cold atoms from the harmonic trap, atomic transport by moving harmonic trap, and spin dynamics in the presence of dissipation, are explicitly detailed. Using OCT as a qualitative guide, we demonstrate how STA protocols designed from inverse engineering method, can approach with very high precision optimal solutions built about physical constraints, by a proper choice of the interpolation function and with a very reduced number of adjustable parameters.

Fast and robust quantum control protocols are often based on an idealised approximate description of the relevant quantum system. While this may provide a performance which is close to optimal, improvements can be made by incorporating elements of the full system representation. We propose a new technique for such scenarios, called enhanced shortcuts to adiabaticity (eSTA). The eSTA method works for previously intractable Hamiltonians by providing an analytical correction to existing STA protocols. This correction can be easily calculated and the resulting protocols are outside the class of STA schemes. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the method for three distinct cases: manipulation of an internal atomic state beyond the rotating wave approximation, transport of a neutral atom in an optical Gaussian trap and transport of two trapped ions in an anharmonic trap.
Pure-state inverse engineering among the schemes of shortcuts to adiabaticity is a widespread utility in applications to quantum computation and quantum simulation. While in principle it can realise the fast control of quantum systems with high fidelity, in practice this fast control is severely hindered by infinite energy gaps and impractical control fields. To circumvent this problem, we propose a scheme of shortcuts to adiabaticity of mixed state based on the dynamical invariant of open quantum system. Our scheme can drives a steady state to a target steady state of the open system by a controlled Liouvillian that possesses the same form as the reference (original) one. We apply this scheme to stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) and find that an almost perfect population transfer can be obtained. The experimental observation with currently available parameters for the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is suggested and discussed.
We present a fast and robust framework to prepare non-classical states of a bosonic mode exploiting a coherent exchange of excitations with a two-level system ruled by a Jaynes-Cummings interaction mechanism. Our protocol, which is built on shortcuts to adiabaticity, allows for the generation of arbitrary Fock states of the bosonic mode, as well as coherent quantum superpositions of a Schrodinger cat-like form. In addition, we show how to obtain a class of photon-shifted states where the vacuum population is removed, a result akin to photon addition, but displaying more non-classicality than standard photon-added states. Owing to the ubiquity of the spin-boson interaction that we consider, our proposal is amenable for implementations in state-of-the-art experiments.
We investigate ways to optimize adiabaticity and diabaticity in the Landau-Zener model with non-uniform sweeps. We show how diabaticity can be engineered with a pulse consisting of a linear sweep augmented by an oscillating term. We show that the oscillation leads to jumps in populations whose value can be accurately modeled using a model of multiple, photon-assisted Landau-Zener transitions, which generalizes work by Wubs et al. [New J. Phys. 7, 218 (2005)]. We extend the study on diabaticity using methods derived from optimal control. We also show how to preserve adiabaticity with optimal pulses at limited time, finding a non-uniform quantum speed limit.
Spin echo can be used to refocus random dynamical phases caused by inhomogeneities in control fields and thereby retain the purity of a spatial distribution of quantum spins. This technique for accurate spin control is an essential ingredient in many applications, such as nuclear magnetic resonance, magnetic resonance imaging, and quantum information processing. Here, we show how all the elements of a spin echo sequence can be performed at high speed by means of shortcuts to adiabaticity. Our proposal promises accurate control of rapid quantum spin evolution. We illustrate our scheme for a universal nonadiabatic geometric single-qubit gate.
