Transitionless quantum driving in open quantum systems

Journal article

We extend the concept of superadiabatic dynamics, or transitionless quantum driving, to quantum open systems whose evolution is governed by a master equation in the Lindblad form. We provide the general framework needed to determine the control strategy required to achieve superadiabaticity. We apply our formalism to two examples consisting of a two-level system coupled to environments with time-dependent bath operators. © 2014 IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.
