AM-SURE Summer Lecture Series

Optimal control with applications to quantum systems

Speaker: Fortino Garcia, Courant Institute

Location: Warren Weaver Hall 1314

Date: Friday, June 23, 2023, 1 p.m.

Synopsis:

In order to achieve practical quantum computation it is essential to design quantum logic gates that are high-fidelity and reliable. In this talk we’ll take a look at how to construct microwave/laser pulses to realize a user-specified quantum logic gate by solving an optimal control problem in which the state of the system is governed by the Schrödinger equation.
