krotov package

The main function exposed here is optimize_pulses().

This acts on a list of Objective instances, which may either be constructed manually, or through the helper functions gate_objectives() and ensemble_objectives().

The submodules contain various auxiliary functions for constructing arguments for optimize_pulses(), for common use cases. This includes functions for constructing control fields (guess pulses), optimization functionals, convergence checks, analysis tools, and propagators, as well as more technical routines for parallelization, low-level data conversion, and estimators for second-order updates.

Submodules:

• krotov.convergence module
• krotov.conversions module
• krotov.functionals module
• krotov.info_hooks module
• krotov.mu module
• krotov.objectives module
• krotov.optimize module
• krotov.parallelization module
• krotov.propagators module
• krotov.result module
• krotov.second_order module
• krotov.shapes module
