Fast and Smooth Quantum Unitary Control of High-Dimensional Spin-Qudits via a Shooting Technique

Abstract:High-fidelity quantum control is a cornerstone of scalable quantum technologies. We introduce a shooting-based optimization framework that generates smooth, experimentally realistic control pulses for implementing quantum gates in discrete quantum systems. Through numerical simulations on realistic architectures inspired by single-molecule magnets, we demonstrate that our method efficiently decomposes target quantum operations into electric pulse sequences while outperforming the widely used GRAPE algorithm.
