Universal Control of Decoupled Quantum Systems
Lorenza Viola, Seth Lloyd, Emanuel H. Knill · Physical Review Letters · 1999
We show that if one can perform a restricted set of fast manipulations on a quantum system, one can implement a large class of dynamical evolutions by effectively removing or introducing selected Hamiltonians. The procedure can be used to achieve universal noise-tolerant control based on purely unitary open-loop transformations of the dynamics. As a result, it is in principle possible to perform noise-protected universal quantum computation using no extra space resources.
