Shortcuts to adiabaticity: Concepts, methods, and applications

D Guéry-Odelin, A Ruschhaupt, A Kiely… - Reviews of Modern …, 2019 - APS
Shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) are fast routes to the final results of slow, adiabatic changes
of the controlling parameters of a system. The shortcuts are designed by a set of analytical …

Method for constructing shortcuts to adiabaticity by a substitute of counterdiabatic driving terms

YH Chen, Y Xia, QC Wu, BH Huang, J Song - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
We propose an efficient method to construct shortcuts to adiabaticity through designing a
substitute Hamiltonian to try to avoid the defect in which the speed-up protocols' Hamiltonian …

S Ibáñez, S Martínez-Garaot, X Chen… - Physical Review A …, 2011 - APS
Adiabatic processes driven by non-Hermitian, time-dependent Hamiltonians may be sped
up by generalizing inverse engineering techniques based on counter-diabatic (transitionless …

Adiabaticity condition for non-Hermitian Hamiltonians

S Ibáñez, JG Muga - Physical Review A, 2014 - APS
We generalize the concept of population for non-Hermitian systems in different ways and
identify the one best suited to characterize adiabaticity. An approximate adiabaticity criterion …

Shortcuts to adiabaticity with general two-level non-Hermitian systems

TZ Luan, HZ Shen, XX Yi - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
Shortcuts to adiabaticity are alternative fast processes which reproduce the same final state
as the adiabatic process in a finite or even shorter time, which have been extended from …

Zeno physics in ultrastrong-coupling circuit QED

We study the Zeno and anti-Zeno effects in a superconducting qubit interacting strongly and
ultrastrongly with a microwave resonator. Using a model of a frequently measured two-level …

Improving the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage via dissipative quantum dynamics

QC Wu, YH Chen, BH Huang, J Song, Y Xia… - Optics …, 2016 - opg.optica.org
We propose a method to improve the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) via
dissipative quantum dynamics, taking into account the dephasing effects. Fast and robust …

Non-Hermitian and Zeno limit of quantum systems under rapid measurements

F Thiel, DA Kessler - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
We investigate two models of a quantum system under rapid measurement performed to
detect whether the system is in a given state| ψ d〉. In the first, the detection process is …

Reverse engineering of a nonlossy adiabatic Hamiltonian for non-Hermitian systems

QC Wu, YH Chen, BH Huang, Y Xia, J Song - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
We generalize the quantum adiabatic theorem to the non-Hermitian system and build a strict
adiabaticity condition to make the adiabatic evolution nonlossy when taking into account the …

Unification of quantum Zeno–anti Zeno effects and parity-time symmetry breaking transitions

J Li, T Wang, L Luo, S Vemuri, YN Joglekar - Physical Review Research, 2023 - APS
The decay of an unstable quantum state can be inhibited or enhanced by tailored
measurements, known as quantum Zeno effect (QZE) or anti Zeno effect (QAZE). QZE …
