Non-Abelian holonomic transformations in digitally coupled acoustic waveguides guided by the global adiabatic criterion

An acoustic platform is validated for implementing compact non-Abelian holonomic transformations (NHTs) guided by a global adiabatic criterion (GAC). A tripod model is mapped onto a digitally coupled four-waveguide structure, where designed coupling envelopes and an acoustically-induced-transparency phase-control module implement a two-stage phase-stitched holonomic evolution. Compared with a reference Gaussian envelope, the GAC-guided power-law profile flattens the spatial distribution of the global nonadiabatic burden, thereby providing a quantitative basis for compact acoustic implementation. Full-wave simulations show Pauli-$X$ and Hadamard-type target transformations, with excellent agreement between the extracted normalized intensities and analytical coupled-mode predictions. These target responses are obtained with half the coupling length required by the reference Gaussian implementations. More uniquely, the same phase-stitched structure also supports unidirectional acoustic mode conversion, which is closely related to a reduced two-mode non-Hermitian picture associated with an encircled exceptional point (EP). These results validate acoustic NHTs as a robust geometric route for compact wave control, establish the GAC as a powerful guideline for fast adiabatic transport in digitally coupled systems, and further demonstrate that the same phase-stitched architecture supports unidirectional mode conversion through EP-assisted branch selection.

Non-Abelian Thouless pumping based on the global adiabatic criterion in Rydberg synthetic lattices

We study a quantum implementation of non-Abelian Thouless pumping in Lieb lattices using Rydberg synthetic dimensions. The lattice is encoded in twelve selected microwave-coupled Rydberg levels, forming a three-cell structure with six degenerate zero-energy states. These zero-energy states define the working subspace for cyclic modulation of the microwave couplings, while the remaining bright states provide the dominant leakage channels at finite evolution time. To choose the relative timing of the Gaussian pulses, we introduce a global adiabatic criterion (GAC), which evaluates the mean value and temporal fluctuation of a nonadiabatic factor obtained from a representative $Λ$-type transfer paradigm. With the resulting timing applied to the full twelve-level pumping dynamics, composing two elementary pumping cycles in opposite temporal orders produces distinct projected population maps. It is exactly consistent with noncommuting matrix-valued adiabatic operations in the zero-energy subspace. We numerically simulate the non-Abelian Thouless pumping using the Lindblad master equation with state-dependent Rydberg loss and representative perturbations. The results show that the GAC-selected timing within the same Gaussian pulse family gives higher target-state population than two literature-adapted Gaussian pulse schedules over the simulated parameter ranges. This quantum implementation of non-Abelian Thouless pumping, enabled by the GAC, marks a major milestone in finite-time geometric control and paves the way for transformative applications in holonomic quantum computing with Rydberg synthetic lattices.

Analytical two-pulse control of universal single-qubit gates in rotational ultracold NaCs molecules

Complex control protocols and sensitivity to experimental imperfections have limited the practical implementation of quantum gate operations. Here, we present an analytical framework for universal single-qubit gates using rotational states of ultracold NaCs molecules. By encoding qubits in the lowest rotational energy levels, we employ a first-order Magnus expansion to derive closed-form unitary evolution from an optimized two-pulse sequence. This approach establishes precise amplitude and phase conditions for arbitrary single-qubit rotations, achieving gate fidelities above 0.9999 in numerical simulations. We further demonstrate that complex multi-gate sequences, including phase-locked operations, can be executed with minimal population leakage into auxiliary states. The time-dependent molecular orientation is shown to faithfully encode both the gate truth table and coherence dynamics, enabling practical gate tomography via weak-field polarization detection. Our analytical method is also applicable to other molecules and physical platforms, offering a potential path to high-fidelity, scalable molecular quantum processors.

Accelerated Topological Pumping in Photonic Waveguides Based on Global Adiabatic Criteria

Adiabatic topological pumping enables robust transport of energy and information, yet its operational speed is fundamentally constrained by the instantaneous adiabatic condition, which necessitates prohibitively slow parameter variations. Here, we propose a paradigm shift from instantaneous to global adiabaticity. We derive a global adiabatic criterion (GAC) that establishes an absolute fidelity bound by controlling the root-mean-square nonadiabaticity. Building on this framework, we introduce a fluctuation-suppression acceleration criterion to minimize spatial inhomogeneity, allowing for a safe increase in mean nonadiabaticity without compromising fidelity. We experimentally demonstrate this principle in femtosecond-laser-written photonic Su-Schrieffer-Heeger waveguide arrays via scalable power-law coupling modulation. Our accelerated topological pumping achieves a fidelity of >0.95 with a fivefold reduction in device length compared to conventional schemes, exhibits the predicted linear scaling with system size, and maintains robust performance across a bandwidth exceeding 400 nm. This GAC framework provides a universal design rule for fast, compact, and robust adiabatic devices across both quantum and classical topological platforms.
