Arbitrarily Accurate Dynamical Control in Open Quantum Systems [PDF]
We show that open-loop dynamical control techniques may be used to synthesize unitary transformations in open quantum systems in such a way that decoherence is perturbatively compensated for to a desired (in principle arbitrarily high) level of accuracy,
