Abstract

We study spin squeezing, negative correlations, and concurrence in the quantum kicked top model. We prove that the spin squeezing and negative correlations are equivalent for spin systems with only symmetric Dicke states populated. We numerically analyze spin squeezing parameters and concurrence in this model and find that the maximal spin squeezing direction, which refers to the minimal pairwise correlation direction, is strongly influenced by quantum chaos. Entanglement (spin squeezing) sudden death and sudden birth occur alternatively for the periodic and quasiperiodic cases, while only entanglement (spin squeezing) sudden death is found for the chaotic case.

Spin squeezing properties in the quantum kicked top model

Lijun Song, Xiaoguang Wang, Dong Yan +1 more

We study spin squeezing, an intrinsically quantum property, in the quantum kicked top model exhibiting chaotic behaviours in the classical limit. We show that spin squeezing can reveal the underlying chaotic and regular structures in phase space given by a sphere with a unit radius, namely, spin squeezing vanishes after a very short time for an initial spin coherent state centred in a chaotic region of the phase space, whereas spin squeezing occurs over a long period of time for the coherent state centred in an elliptic fixed point. We also study the distribution of the mean spin directions when quantum dynamics take places and give a comparison between the dynamics of spin squeezing and quantum entanglement.

The Effect of Spin Squeezing on the Entanglement Entropy of Kicked Tops

Ernest Teng Siang Ong, Lock Yue Chew

In this paper, we investigate the effects of spin squeezing on two-coupled quantum kicked tops, which have been previously shown to exhibit a quantum signature of chaos in terms of entanglement dynamics. Our results show that initial spin squeezing can lead to an enhancement in both the entanglement rate and the asymptotic entanglement for kicked tops when the initial state resides in the regular islands within a mixed classical phase space. On the other hand, we found a reduction in these two quantities if we were to choose the initial state deep inside the chaotic sea. More importantly, we have uncovered that an application of periodic spin squeezing can yield the maximum attainable entanglement entropy, albeit this is achieved at a reduced entanglement rate.

Sudden vanishing of spin squeezing under decoherence

Xiaoguang Wang, Adam Miranowicz, Yu-xi Liu +2 more

In order to witness multipartite correlations beyond pairwise entanglement, spin-squeezing parameters are analytically calculated for a spin ensemble in a collective initial state under three different decoherence channels. It is shown that, in analogy to pairwise entanglement, the spin squeezing described by different parameters can suddenly become zero at different vanishing times. This finding shows the general occurrence of sudden vanishing phenomena of quantum correlations in many-body systems, which here is referred to as spin-squeezing sudden death (SSSD). It is shown that the SSSD usually occurs due to decoherence and that SSSD never occurs for some initial states in the amplitude-damping channel. We also analytically obtain the vanishing times of spin squeezing.

Properties of spin squeezing in the quantum kicked tops model

Yongchao Wang

In this paper, by using QKT model, we give the changing relation between chaotic coefficient k and spin squeezing coefficient of two different definitions by numerical simulation calculation. The results show that the regular regions are stronger than chaotic ones in the classical phase space, the spin squeezed behavior is very strong, and the chaotic regions are stronger than regular ones in the classical phase space, the spin squeezed behavior is very weak, which indicate the spin squeezing is very sensitive to the corresponding classical chaos. Through the comparison we also know that the spin squeezing coefficient defined by Wineland is more sensitive to the classical chaos than the one by Kitagawa and Ueda, so the quantum chaos can be described by spin squeezing.

Quantum-Classical Correspondence and Entanglement in Periodically Driven Spin Systems

Meenu Kumari

This dissertation sets out to examine some fundamental open questions in quantum physics regarding quantum-classical correspondence in regular versus chaotic systems. Specifically, we study these questions using approaches in quantum information science in an experimentally realized textbook model of quantum chaos - the quantum kicked top (QKT). \n \nThe effect of classical chaos on the generation of entanglement in spin systems has been a field of active research for a couple of decades. Whether high entanglement in these systems is a hallmark of chaos or not remains a widely debated topic. We explain the connection between entanglement and chaos in spin systems and resolve previous conflicting results. The previous studies have mostly drawn conclusions from numerical work on a few initial states in regular versus chaotic regions. We instead focus on stable and unstable periodic orbits because chaos emerges around unstable periodic orbits. We first propose a new set of criteria for determining whether quantum evolution will correspond to the classical trajectory in a localized manner at stable periodic orbits in periodically driven systems. These criteria can be used to calculate the quantum numbers that will lead to quantum-classical correspondence even in a deep quantum regime, and thus to quantify the well-known Bohr correspondence principle. Next, we analytically show a direct connection between entanglement generation and a measure of delocalization of a quantum state in spin systems. More concretely, we describe a method to calculate an upper bound on entanglement generation in any bipartition of spin systems, where the upper bound is a function of trace distance between the evolved state and the most localized classical-like separable states. This method along with our criteria for localized evolution enables us to explain the behaviour of entanglement in both deep quantum and semiclassical regimes for regular as well as chaotic regions. Hence, our analysis resolves the long-standing debates regarding the connection between classical chaos and quantum entanglement in deep quantum and semiclassical regimes. \n \nIn addition to the study of entanglement, we perform the first study of nonlocality, and the effect of chaos on its generation in the QKT. Since nonlocality and entanglement are inequivalent quantum resources, the effect of chaos on nonlocality merits an explicit study. Violations of Bell inequalities in the presence of spacelike separation among the subsystems imply nonlocality - meaning nonlocal correlations between subsystems of the total spin system. We show that the QKT evolution can lead to states that violate multiqubit Bell inequalities and hence provides a deterministic method to prepare nonlocal quantum states. Our numerical results suggest a correlation between delocalized evolution of a pure quantum state and generation of nonlocality in the quantum state. We further demonstrate that dynamical tunnelling - a classically forbidden phenomenon - in the QKT leads to the generation of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)-like states for even numbers of qubits. We analytically prove that these states are maximally nonlocal. On the other hand, we numerically show that any reduced state of the QKT obtained by tracing out a subsystem of the total spin system does not violate Bell inequalities. We provide an analytical explanation of the numerical results for $2-$qubit reduced states by formulating and proving two general theorems regarding $2-$qubit Bell inequalities. These theorems imply that any $2-$qubit mixed state having a symmetric extension or symmetric purification cannot violate the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality. This highlights fundamental connections between two important and distinct concepts in quantum information science - Bell inequalities and symmetric extension of quantum states. \n \nApart from providing deeper insights into the fundamental questions of quantum-classical correspondence and new approaches to analyze quantum chaos, the methods developed in this thesis can be used to design quantum systems that can efficiently generate entanglement and nonlocality. Thus, our results could have interesting applications in quantum computing and quantum information science.

Quantum entanglement approaching with concurrence in the presence of chaos

Fulop, A.

The concept of concurrence is researched to characterize the dynamical behavior of the bipartite systems. The quantum kicked top model has great significance in the qubit systems and the chaotic properties of the entanglement. The eigenvalues of the reduced symmetric density matrix are determined, it allows us to understand this driven system to distinguish between regularity and chaoticity dynamics in the finite simulation, which depend on the strength excitation in the framework of the concurrence.
