Abstract
A new iteration method is presented for achieving quantum optimal cont rol over the expectation value of a positive definite operator. Theore tical analysis shows that this new algorithm exhibits quadratic and mo notonic convergence. Numerical calculations verify that for this new a lgorithm, within a few steps, the optimized objective functional comes close to its converged limit. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
