Quantum Control: Mathematical and Numerical Challenges: CRM Workshop October 6-11,2002, Vol. 33

A dozen papers concentrate on advanced numerical methods and new mathematical control and optimization approaches for the quantum control of matter at the molecular level using current advanced laser technology. Among the topics are the controllability of the Schrödinger equations, developing solution algorithms for quantum optimal control equations in product spaces, principles and semiclassical implementations, and molecular alignment and orientation.
