Description
In this paper, we design an optimal control law to suppress decoherence effects in Markovian open quantum systems. The optimal control law is subject to the tracking precision of the trajectory governed by the free system, which is ideally free from decoherence. We observe from numerical simulation that the undesired decohering dynamics can be partially squeezed out in most systems. Moreover, we observe the existence of sinusoidally oscillating resonant modes that play dominant roles in the controlled trajectory, which can be easily realized by continuous wave pulses. These key features are strictly demonstrated in subsequent analysis under proper assumptions. For systems in which the coherent control does not work, we suggest a feedback control strategy to extend the applicability of control to wider class of systems
