Abstract :
We consider a non-resonant system of finitely many bilinear Schrodinger equations with discrete spectrum driven by the same scalar control. We prove that this system can approximately track any given system of trajectories of density matrices, up to the phase of the coordinates. The result is valid both for bounded and unbounded Schrodinger operators. The method used relies on finite-dimensional control techniques applied to Lie groups. We provide also an example showing that no approximate tracking of both modulus and phase is possible.
