Overcoming the su(2^n) sufficient condition for the coherent control of
n-qubit systems
R. Cabrera, C. Rangan, W. E. Baylis
abstract: We study quantum systems with even numbers N of levels that are completely
state-controlled by unitary transformations generated by Lie algebras
isomorphic to sp(N) of dimension N(N+1)/2. These Lie algebras are smaller than
the respective su(N) with dimension N^2-1. We show that this reduction
constrains the Hamiltonian to have symmetric energy levels. An example of such
a system is an n-qubit system. Using a geometric representation for the quantum
wave function of a finite system, we present an explicit example that shows a
two-qubit system can be controlled by the elements of the Lie algebra sp(4)
(isomorphic to spin(5) and so(5)) with dimension ten rather than su(4) with
dimension fifteen. These results enable one to envision more efficient
algorithms for the design of fields for quantum-state engineering, and they
provide more insight into the fundamental structure of quantum control.
