Algebraic synthesis of time-optimal unitaries in SU(2) with alternating controls

We present an algebraic framework to study the time-optimal synthesis of arbitrary unitaries in SU(2), when the control set is restricted to rotations around two non-parallel axes in the Bloch sphere. Our method bypasses commonly used control-theoretical techniques and easily imposes necessary condi...
