QUANTUM OPTIMAL CONTROL - From Mathematical Foundations to Quantum Technologies

09:00 till 16:00
Thematic Einstein Semester "Mathematics for Quantum Technologies" Workshop

This workshop is part of the Thematic Einstein Semester “Mathematics for Quantum Technologies” (Summer 2024) funded by the Cluster of Excellence MATH+ and the Einstein Foundation Berlin. A central objective of the workshop is to promote an exchange between mathematicians, physicists and engineers across disciplines on the subject of optimal control of quantum systems.

 

Topics

Topics of the workshop include (but are not limited to):

  • quantum optimal control algorithms and numerical methods
  • quantum feedback control and measurement
  • hybrid quantum-classical algorithms
  • analysis of controllability and expressivity in quantum control problems
  • control of open quantum systems
  • PDE-constrained optimization
  • applications in quantum technologies
  • experimental realizations of optimal control theory

Confirmed Invited Speakers

  • Christian Arenz (Arizona State University)
  • Alfio Borzì (U Würzburg)
  • Ugo Boscain (CNRS, Sorbonne University)
  • Tommaso Calarco (FZ Jülich/ U Cologne)
  • Michael Goerz (DEVCOM US Army Research Lab)
  • Ronnie Kosloff (Hebrew University Jerusalem)
  • Ilya Kuprov (U Southampton)
  • Anja Metelmann (KIT Karlsruhe)
  • Pierre Rouchon (Mines ParisTech)
  • Sophie Schirmer (Swansea University)
