This study explores the advantages of using randomization in quantum control, particularly in situations involving large control groups, long time intervals, and rapidly fluctuating interactions. It identifies cases where random protocols are more effective than deterministic ones, emphasizing the benefits of combining both approaches (hybrid protocols). The results highlight that randomized control can enhance performance, especially under fast oscillating couplings. This work underscores the potential of integrating randomness in quantum decoherence suppression techniques.

Randomization may be more advantageous when i) large control groups/ long time intervals and/or ii) rapidly fluctuating interactions Viola & Knill, PRL 94, 060502 (2005) • Single qubit: decoherence suppression • Identify situations where a random protocol is more suitable • combining protocols leads to a better performance Santos & Viola, forthcoming Using Randomness for Coherent Quantum Control Lea F.

Conclusions • Comparison between deterministic and RANDOM dynamical decoupling • for a single qubit + quantum environment • There are situations where • combined protocols (deterministic + random) • may perform better (hybrid protocol) • randomized control is more recommendable • [when the coupling is fast oscillating, for example] • Further work is necessary to expand the analysis • References: • L.
