Abstract
We theoretically investigate protocols based on optimal control theory (OCT) for manipulating Bose-Einstein condensates in magnetic microtraps, using the framework of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. In our approach we explicitly account for filter functions that distort the computed optimal control, a situation inherent to many experimental OCT implementations. We apply our scheme to the shakeup process of a condensate from the ground to the first excited state, following a recent experimental and theoretical study, and demonstrate that the fidelity of OCT protocols is not significantly deteriorated by typical filters.
