Abstract
Over the last decade, conditions for perfect state transfer in quantum spin chains have been discovered and their experimental realizations addressed, as have their extensions to more complex geometries of coupled cavity-emitter arrays. In this paper we further consider such studies and situations in which quantum state transfer can occur with high fidelity, even when the cavity-cavity coupling rates and cavity-emitter interaction rates are comparable. This is accomplished through the development and use of a Monte Carlo approach to the inverse eigenvalue problem, which allows the determination of coupling rates which optimize quantum state transfer fidelity and subsequent time evolution of the polariton wave function through exact diagonalization of the resulting Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard Hamiltonian. The effect of inhomogeneous emitter locations is also evaluated. Our key results include the demonstration that our methodology can be used successfully to establish Hamiltonian parameters for high-fidelity state transfer in more general lattice geometries and excitation number sectors, and also a determination of the effects of fluctuations in those parameters about their optimal values.
