Features: This book starts from the physical and mathematical foundations of quantum control theory and addresses measurement problems in quantum control, modeling and simulation of quantum control systems, controllability of quantum systems, quantum feedback control, and quantum optimal control. Combining the latest advancements in quantum information science, it comprehensively elaborates on the relevant theories and methods of quantum control. Written based on the authors' recent research and incorporating the findings of other scholars abroad, the book is divided into eight chapters. Chapter 1 serves as an introduction, providing a general overview of the development of quantum control theory. Chapters 2 and 3 offer detailed introductions to the physical and mathematical foundations of quantum control theory, respectively. Chapter 4 discusses measurement problems in quantum control, while Chapter 5 provides an exhaustive exposition on the modeling and simulation of quantum control systems. Chapter 6 addresses controllability issues in quantum control, and Chapters 7 and 8 discuss quantum optimal control and quantum feedback control. This book can serve as an introductory textbook for quantum control research and is also a valuable reference for researchers in related fields.
