Quantum control could be implemented by varying the system Hamiltonian. According to adiabatic theorem, a slowly changing Hamiltonian can approximately keep the system at the ground state during the evolution if the initial state is a ground state. In this paper we consider this process as an interpolation between the initial and final Hamiltonians. We use the mean value of a single operator to measure the distance between the final state and the ideal ground state. This measure could be taken as the error of adiabatic approximation. We prove under certain conditions, this error can be precisely estimated for an arbitrarily given interpolating function. This error estimation could be used as guideline to induce adiabatic evolution. According to our calculation, the adiabatic approximation error is not proportional to the average speed of the variation of the system Hamiltonian and the inverse of the energy gaps in many cases. In particular, we apply this analysis to an example on which the applicability of the adiabatic theorem is questionable.

The adiabatic theorem refers to a setup where an evolution equation contains a time-dependent parameter whose change is very slow, measured by a vanishing parameter $epsilon$. Under suitable assumptions the solution of the time-inhomogenous equation stays close to an instantaneous fixpoint. In the present paper, we prove an adiabatic theorem with an error bound that is independent of the number of degrees of freedom. Our setup is that of quantum spin systems where the manifold of ground states is separated from the rest of the spectrum by a spectral gap. One important application is the proof of the validity of linear response theory for such extended, genuinely interacting systems. In general, this is a long-standing mathematical problem, which can be solved in the present particular case of a gapped system, relevant e.g.~for the integer quantum Hall effect.

We derive an adiabatic theory for a stochastic differential equation, $ varepsilon, mathrm{d} X(s) = L_1(s) X(s), mathrm{d} s + sqrt{varepsilon} L_2(s) X(s) , mathrm{d} B_s, $ under a condition that instantaneous stationary states of $L_1(s)$ are als o stationary states of $L_2(s)$. We use our results to derive the full statistics of tunneling for a driven stochastic Schr{o}dinger equation describing a dephasing process.
The dynamics of quantum expectation values is considered in a geometric setting. First, expectation values of the canonical operators are shown to be equivariant momentum maps for the action of the Heisenberg group on quantum states. Then, the Hamilt onian structure of Ehrenfests theorem is shown to be Lie-Poisson for a semidirect-product Lie group, named the `Ehrenfest group. The underlying Poisson structure produces classical and quantum mechanics as special limit cases. In addition, quantum dynamics is expressed in the frame of the expectation values, in which the latter undergo canonical Hamiltonian motion. In the case of Gaussian states, expectation values dynamics couples to second-order moments, which also enjoy a momentum map structure. Eventually, Gaussian states are shown to possess a Lie-Poisson structure associated to another semidirect-product group, which is called the Jacobi group. This structure produces the energy-conserving variant of a class of Gaussian moment models previously appeared in the chemical physics literature.

This paper studies homogenization of stochastic differential systems. The standard example of this phenomenon is the small mass limit of Hamiltonian systems. We consider this case first from the heuristic point of view, stressing the role of detailed balance and presenting the heuristics based on a multiscale expansion. This is used to propose a physical interpretation of recent results by the authors, as well as to motivate a new theorem proven here. Its main content is a sufficient condition, expressed in terms of solvability of an associated partial differential equation (the cell problem), under which the homogenization limit of an SDE is calculated explicitly. The general theorem is applied to a class of systems, satisfying a generalized detailed balance condition with a position-dependent temperature.
We present a procedure for averaging one-parameter random unitary groups and random self-adjoint groups. Central to this is a generalization of the notion of weak convergence of a sequence of measures and the corresponding generalization of the conce pt of convergence in distribution. The convergence is established in determination of the sequence of compositions of independent random transformations. When sequences of compositions of independent random transformations of the shift by the Euclidean vector in space, the results obtained coincide with the central limit theorem for the sums independent random vectors. The results are applied to the dynamics of quantum systems arising random quantization of the classical Hamiltonian system.
