Statistics of Two Kinds of Entangled Quantum Many-body Systems

Abstract

In this paper, we show two kinds of entangled many body systems with special statistic properties. Firstly, an entangled fermions system with a pairwise entanglement between every two particles in the lowest energy energy level obeys the fractional statistics. As a check, for particle number N=2, N=3 and N=4, considering that any two fermions in the lowest Landau level are entangled in a proper way, the Laughlin wave function can be derived. The results reveals the explicit entanglement pattern of the Laughlin states. Secondly, we noticed that both Bose-Einstein statistics and Fermi-Dirac distributions are derived from computing the partial function of a free quantum many body system in a certain ensemble without considering entanglement. We extend the computation of the partial function to an entangled quantum many body system without interaction, in this system we assume that every particle in energy level $ε_i$ is entangled with a particle in the energy level $ε_{i+1}$ ($i=1,3,5,...$) and also every particle in energy level $ε_i+1$ is entangled with a particle in the energy level $ε_{i}$ ($i=1,3,5,...$), which indicates that the two energy level have the same number of particles. In the entangled system, we find that the partial function will be changed. As a results, both the Bose-Einstein Statics and the Fermi-Dirac distributions will be modified at finite temperature.

Entanglement measures for quasi-two-dimensional fractional quantum Hall states

John Biddle, Michael R. Peterson, S. Das Sarma

We theoretically examine entanglement in fractional quantum hall states, explicitly taking into account and emphasizing the quasi-two-dimensional nature of experimental quantum Hall systems. In particular, we study the entanglement entropy and the entanglement spectrum as a function of the finite layer thickness, $d$, of the quasi-two-dimensional system for a number of filling fractions $\ensuremath{\nu}$ in the lowest and the second Landau levels: $\ensuremath{\nu}$ = 1/3, 7/3, 1/2, and 5/2. We observe that the entanglement measures are dependent on which Landau level the electrons fractionally occupy, and find that filling fractions 1/3 and 7/3, which are considered to be Laughlin states, weaken with $d$ in the lowest Landau level ($\ensuremath{\nu}=1/3$) and strengthen with $d$ in the second Landau level ($\ensuremath{\nu}=7/3$). For the enigmatic even-denominator $\ensuremath{\nu}=5/2$ state, we find that entanglement in the ground state is consistent with that of the non-Abelian Moore-Read Pfaffian state at an optimal thickness, $d$. We also find that the single-layer $\ensuremath{\nu}=1/2$ system is not a fractional quantum Hall state consistent with the experimental observation. In general, our theoretical findings based on entanglement considerations are completely consistent with the results based on wave-function overlap calculations.

Dynamics and level statistics of interacting fermions in the lowest Landau level

Mikael Fremling, Cécile Repellin, Jean-Marie Stéphan +3 more

We consider the unitary dynamics of interacting fermions in the lowest Landau level, on spherical and toroidal geometries. The dynamics are driven by the interaction Hamiltonian which, viewed in the basis of single-particle Landau orbitals, contains correlated pair hopping terms in addition to static repulsion. This setting and this type of Hamiltonian has a significant history in numerical studies of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) physics, but the many-body quantum dynamics generated by such correlated hopping has not been explored in detail. We focus on initial states containing all the fermions in one block of orbitals. We characterize in detail how the fermionic liquid spreads out starting from such a state. We identify and explain differences with regular (single-particle) hopping Hamiltonians. Such differences are seen, e.g. in the entanglement dynamics, in that some initial block states are frozen or near-frozen, and in density gradients persisting in long-time equilibrated states. Examining the level spacing statistics, we show that the most common Hamiltonians used in FQH physics are not integrable, and explain that GOE statistics (level statistics corresponding to the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble) can appear in many cases despite the lack of time-reversal symmetry.

Quantum Statistical Mechanics of a Many-Body System with Several Components

Raj K. Pathria, M. P. Kawatra

The binary collision method of Lee and Yang is extended in order to investigate the statistical mechanics of a multicomponent mixture of interacting gases obeying Bose-Einstein or Fermi-Dirac statistics. First, the case of a mixture of two kinds of hard-sphere spinless bosons is studied and then the generalization is carried over to the case of a mixture of several components consisting of particles with arbitrary spin and statistics. An explicit derivation of the fugacity expansion, correct to the second order in the interaction parameters, is given. Expressions are derived for the second and third virial coefficients of the system and a discussion is given of the salient features of the results obtained. Finally, the case of a binary mixture, with one component consisting of bosons and the other of fermions, is considered and the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation in this system is studied.

Entanglement in many-body systems

Luigi Amico A, Rosario Fazio, Andreas Osterloh +1 more

Recent interest in aspects common to quantum information and condensed matter has prompted a flurry of activity at the border of these disciplines that were far distant until a few years ago. Numerous interesting questions have been addressed so far. Here an important part of this field, the properties of the entanglement in many-body systems, are reviewed. The zero and finite temperature properties of entanglement in interacting spin, fermion, and boson model systems are discussed. Both bipartite and multipartite entanglement will be considered. In equilibrium entanglement is shown tightly connected to the characteristics of the phase diagram. The behavior of entanglement can be related, via certain witnesses, to thermodynamic quantities thus offering interesting possibilities for an experimental test. Out of equilibrium entangled states are generated and manipulated by means of many-body Hamiltonians.

Entanglement in fermion systems

N. Gigena, R. Rossignoli

We analyze the problem of quantifying entanglement in pure and mixed states of fermionic systems with a fixed number parity yet not necessarily a fixed particle number. The mode entanglement between one single-particle level and its orthogonal complement is first considered, and an entanglement entropy for such a partition of a particular basis of the single-particle Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is defined. The sum over all single-particle modes of this entropy is introduced as a measure of the total entanglement of the system with respect to the chosen basis and it is shown that its minimum over all bases of $\mathcal{H}$ is a function of the one-body density matrix. Furthermore, we show that if minimization is extended to all bases related through a Bogoliubov transformation, then the entanglement entropy is a function of the generalized one-body density matrix. These results are then used to quantify entanglement in fermion systems with four single-particle levels. For general pure states of such a system a closed expression for the fermionic concurrence is derived, which generalizes the Slater correlation measure defined by J. Schliemann et al. [Phys. Rev. A 64, 022303 (2001)], implying that particle entanglement may be seen as minimum mode entanglement. It is also shown that the entanglement entropy defined before is related to this concurrence by an expression analogous to that in the two-qubit case. For mixed states of this system the convex roof extension of the previous concurrence and entanglement entropy is evaluated analytically, extending the results in previous reference to general states.

The non-interacting Bose gas

C. J. Pethick, H. Smith

The topic of Bose–Einstein condensation in a uniform, non-interacting gas of bosons is treated in most textbooks on statistical mechanics. In the present chapter we discuss the properties of a non-interacting Bose gas in a trap. We shall calculate equilibrium properties of systems in a semi-classical approximation, in which the energy spectrum is treated as a continuum. For this approach to be valid the temperature must be large compared with Δ∊/ k , where Δ∊ denotes the separation between neighbouring energy levels. As is well known, at temperatures below the Bose–Einstein condensation temperature, the lowest-energy state is not properly accounted for if one simply replaces sums by integrals, and it must be included explicitly. The statistical distribution function is discussed in Sec. 2.1, as is the single-particle density of states, which is a key ingredient in the calculations of thermodynamic properties. Calculations of the transition temperature and the fraction of particles in the condensate are described in Sec. 2.2. In Sec. 2.3 the semi-classical distribution function is introduced. From this we obtain the density profile and the velocity distribution of particles, and use these to determine the shape of an anisotropic cloud after free expansion. Thermodynamic properties of Bose gases are calculated as functions of the temperature in Sec. 2.4. Finally, Sec. 2.5 treats corrections to the transition temperature due to a finite particle number.
