| contents | The Chantasri-Dressel-Jordan (CDJ) stochastic path integral formalism (Chantasri et al. 2013 and 2015) characterizes the statistics of the readouts and the most likely conditional evolution of continuously monitored quantum systems. In our work, we generalize the CDJ formalism to arbitrary continuously monitored systems by introducing a costate operator. We then prescribe a generalized Pontryagin's maximum principle for quantum systems undergoing arbitrary evolution and find conditions on optimal control protocols. We show that the CDJ formalism's most likely path can be cast as a quantum Pontryagin's maximum principle, where the cost function is the readout probabilities along a quantum trajectory. This insight allows us to derive general optimal control equations for arbitrary control parameters. We apply our results to a monitored oscillator in the presence of a parametric quadratic potential and variable quadrature measurements. We find the optimal potential strength and quadrature angle for fixed-end point problems. The optimal parametric potential is analytically shown to have a "bang-bang" form. We apply our protocol to three quantum oscillator examples relevant to Bosonic quantum computing. The first example considers a binomial codeword preparation from an error word, the second example looks into cooling to the ground state from an even cat state, and the third example investigates a cat state to cat state evolution. We compare the statistics of the fidelities of the final state with respect to the target state for trajectories generated under the optimal control with those generated under a sample control. Compared to the latter case, we see a 40-196% increase in the number of trajectories reaching more than 95% fidelities under the optimal control. Our work provides a systematic prescription for finding quantum optimal control for continuously monitored systems. |
