Abstract

The concept of local controllability is investigated for non-relativistic quantum systems. Sufficient conditions will be sought such that the solution of the controlled Schrodinger equation can be guided, over a short time interval, to any chosen point in a suitably prescribed neighborhood of the solution in the absence of control. Evolution equations which are linear in the controls but nonlinear in the quantum state Ψ are considered. Our formulation and analysis will (for the most part) run parallel to those of Hermes.
