Optimal control simulation of the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm in a two-dimensional double well coupled to an environment.

The quantum Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm is implemented by using vibrational modes of a two-dimensional double well. The laser fields realizing the different gates (NOT, CNOT, and HADAMARD) on the two-qubit space are computed by the multitarget optimal control theory. The stability of the performance index is checked by coupling the system to an environment.

A simple and efficient evolution operator for time-dependent Hamiltonians: the Taylor expansion.

No compact expression of the evolution operator is known when the Hamiltonian operator is time dependent, like when Hamiltonian operators describe, in a semiclassical limit, the interaction of a molecule with an electric field. It is well known that Magnus [N. Magnus, Commun.

One-dimensional quantum description of the bending vibrations of HCN/CNH for high values of the total angular momentum.

For high values of the quantum number of the total angular momentum J (up to J = 20), quantum mechanical eigenstates (eigenvalues and eigenfunctions) are calculated by the method of Gatti et al. (J. Mol.
