Dynamics of entanglement in the transverse Ising model

Abstract

We study the evolution of nearest-neighbor entanglement in the one-dimensional Ising model with an external transverse field. The system is initialized as the so-called thermal ground state of the pure Ising model. We analyze properties of the generation of entanglement for different regions of external transverse fields. We find that the derivative of the time at which the entanglement reaches its first maximum with respect to the reciprocal transverse field has a minimum at the critical point. This is an indicator of quantum phase transition.

Low-energy-state dynamics of entanglement for spin systems

Rouhollah Jafari

We develop the ideas of the quantum renormalization group and quantum information by exploring the low-energy-state dynamics of entanglement resources of a system close to its quantum critical point. We demonstrate that low-energy-state dynamical quantities of one-dimensional magnetic systems can show a quantum phase transition point and show scaling behavior in the vicinity of the transition point. To present our idea, we study the evolution of two spin entanglements in the one-dimensional Ising model in the transverse field. The system is initialized as the so-called thermal ground state of the pure Ising model. We investigate the evolution of the generation of entanglement with increasing magnetic field. We obtain that the derivative of the time at which the entanglement reaches its maximum with respect to the transverse field diverges at the critical point and its scaling behaviors versus the size of the system are the same as the static ground-state entanglement of the system.

Dynamics of entanglement in a one-dimensional Ising chain

G. B. Furman, V. Meerovich, Vladimir Sokolovsky

The evolution of entanglement in a one-dimensional Ising chain is numerically studied under various initial conditions. We analyze two problems concerning the dynamics of entanglement: (i) generation of the entanglement from the pseudopure separable state and (ii) transportation of the entanglement from one end of the chain to the other. The model investigated is a one-dimensional Ising spin-1/2 chain with nearest-neighbor interactions placed in an external magnetic field and irradiated by a weak resonant transverse field. The possibility of selective initialization of partially entangled states is considered. It was shown that, in spite of the use of a model with direct interactions between the nearest neighbors, entanglement between remote spins is generated.

Dynamical phase transitions and temperature-induced quantum correlations in an infinite spin chain

Aditi Sen, Ujjwal Sen, Maciej Lewenstein

We study the dynamics of entanglement in the infinite asymmetric $XY$ spin chain, in an applied transverse field. The system is prepared in a thermal equilibrium state (ground state at zero temperature) at the initial instant, and it starts evolving after the transverse field is completely turned off. We investigate the evolved state of the chain at a given fixed time, and show that the nearest-neighbor entanglement in the chain exhibits a critical behavior (which we call a dynamical phase transition), controlled by the initial value of the transverse field. The character of the dynamical phase transition is qualitatively different for short and long evolution times. We also find a nonmonotonic behavior of entanglement with respect to the temperature of the initial equilibrium state. Interestingly, the region of the initial field for which we obtain a nonmonotonicity of entanglement (with respect to temperature) is directly related to the position and character of the dynamical phase transition in the model.

Entanglement in a simple quantum phase transition

Tobias J. Osborne, Michael A. Nielsen

What entanglement is present in naturally occurring physical systems at thermal equilibrium? Most such systems are intractable and it is desirable to study simple but realistic systems that can be solved. An example of such a system is the one-dimensional infinite-lattice anisotropic $\mathrm{XY}$ model. This model is exactly solvable using the Jordan-Wigner transform, and it is possible to calculate the two-site reduced density matrix for all pairs of sites. Using the two-site density matrix, the entanglement of formation between any two sites is calculated for all parameter values and temperatures. We also study the entanglement in the transverse Ising model, a special case of the $\mathrm{XY}$ model, which exhibits a quantum phase transition. It is found that the next-nearest-neighbor entanglement (though not the nearest-neighbor entanglement) is a maximum at the critical point. Furthermore, we show that the critical point in the transverse Ising model corresponds to a transition in the behavior of the entanglement between a single site and the remainder of the lattice.

Spin dynamics in the XY model

Rong-Chun Ge, Chuan‐Feng Li, Guang‐Can Guo

We study the evolution of entanglement, quantum correlation and classical correlation for the one dimensional XY model in external transverse magnetic field. The system is initialized in the full polarized state along the z axis, after annealing, different sites will become entangled. We study the three kinds of correlation for both the nearest and the next-nearest neighbor sites. We find that for large anisotropy parameter the quantum phase transition can be indicated by the dynamics of classical correlation between the nearest neighbor sites. We find that the dynamics of entanglement for both the nearest and next-nearest neighbor sites show significantly different behaviors with different values of magnetic field. We also find that the evolution of quantum correlation and classical correlation of the nearest neighbor sites are obviously different from those of the next-nearest neighbor sites.
