The proposal requests funds for a five day workshop on quantum control to be held at Harvard Universityin August of 2006. The goal of the workshop is to foster an understanding among control theorists ofapplication-driven needs for methods to design control schemes and an appreciation of the practicalconstraints on their implementation. We also hope to build an appreciation among experimentalistsand theoretical for the range and utility of analysis/design methods from control theory. Finally, wehope to begin the development conceptual and mathematical languages for quantum control. researchpresentations will be integrated with tutorial lectures. We are requesting funds from several sources withthe expectation that we will be able to cover the travel and living expenses of about 55 attendees fromoutside Cambridge and about 20 local.Intellectual Merit The workshop aims to bring researchers from diverse field of physics, chemistry,control theory, dynamical systems, stochastics, signal processing and information science to identifymathematical models and control problems whose study and solution will have significant bearing ontechnologies and experiments involving control and manipulation of quantum systems. Experience hasshown that systematic use of methods of control theory that lead to significant improvement in the stateof the art methods in fields ranging from magnetic resonance to quantum information processing. Theworkshop aims to build on these successes to create a unified language and system theory of quantummechanical systems with potential impact on areas of atomic, molecular and optical physics, coherentspectroscopies in chemistry, magnetic resonance, quantum communication, information and computation.Broader Impact Important component of this meeting are tutorial sessions that aim to educate studentsand researchers in areas of physics, chemistry and magnetic resonance, the analysis and design methodsof control theory. There will also be tutorial session on basic models that arise in applications involvingcontrol and manipulation of quantum systems to researchers and students in engineering. There is aformidable gap between the types of models and analysis commonly utilized by application-orientedpractitioners and those studied by control theorists. The workshop aims to bridge this gap.

该提案要求为2006年8月在哈佛大学举行的为期五天的量子控制研讨会提供资金。该研讨会的目标是促进控制理论家之间的应用驱动的需求的方法来设计控制方案和升值的practicalconstraints对他们的实施的理解。我们也希望建立一个欣赏之间experimentalists和理论的范围和效用的分析/设计方法从控制理论。最后，我们希望开始量子控制的概念和数学语言的发展。研究报告将与辅导讲座相结合。我们正在从几个来源申请资金，希望我们能够支付大约55名来自剑桥以外的与会者和大约20名当地与会者的旅费和生活费。学术价值研讨会旨在使来自物理，化学，控制理论，动力系统，随机学，信号处理和信息科学，以确定数学模型和控制问题，其研究和解决方案将对涉及控制和操纵量子系统。经验表明，系统地使用控制理论的方法，导致显着改善的最先进的方法，从磁共振到量子信息处理等领域。本次研讨会的目的是在这些成功的基础上，创建一个量子力学系统的统一语言和系统理论，对原子，分子和光学物理，化学中的相干光谱，磁共振，量子通信，信息和计算等领域产生潜在的影响。更广泛的影响本次会议的重要组成部分是旨在教育物理，化学和磁共振领域的学生和研究人员的辅导课程，控制理论的分析与设计方法。此外，还将为工程研究人员和学生提供有关量子系统控制和操纵应用中出现的基本模型的辅导课程。在面向应用的实践者和控制理论家所研究的模型和分析类型之间存在着巨大的差距。研讨会旨在弥合这一差距。
