Abstract
We consider strongly dissipative quantum systems admitting a non-trivial
manifold of steady states. We show how one can enact adiabatic coherent unitary
manipulations e.g., quantum logical gates, inside this steady-state manifold by
adding a weak, time-rescaled, Hamiltonian term into the system's Liouvillian.
The effective long-time dynamics is governed by a Fermi golden rule type
Hamiltonian which results from the interplay between the weak unitary control
and the fast relaxation process. The leakage outside the steady-state manifold
entailed by the Hamiltonian term is suppressed by an environment-induced
symmetrization of the dynamics. We present applications to quantum-computation
in decoherence-free subspaces and noiseless subsystems and numerical analysis
of non-adiabatic errors.
