Constraint optimization and SU(N) quantum control landscapes

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We develop the embedded gradient vector field method, introduced in [8] and [9], for the case of the special unitary group mathcalSU(N) regarded as a constraint submanifold of the unitary group mathcalU(N). The optimization problem associated to the trace fidelity cost function defined on mathcalSU(N) that appears in the context of mathcalSU(N) quantum control landscapes is completely solved using the embedded gradient vector field method. We prove that for Ngeq5, the landscape is not mathcalSU(N)-trap free, there are always kinematic local extrema that are not global extrema.
