Abstract

Abstract We investigate the exact dynamics of a system of two independent harmonic oscillators coupled through their angular momentum. The exact analytic solution of the equations of motion for the field operators is derived, and the conditions for dynamical stability are obtained. As for the application, we examine the emergence of squeezing and mode entanglement for an arbitrary separable coherent initial state. It is shown that close to instability, the system develops considerable entanglement, which is accompanied with simultaneous squeezing in the coordinate of one oscillator and the momentum of the other oscillator. In contrast, for weak coupling away from instability, the generated entanglement is small, with weak alternating squeezing in the coordinate and momentum of each oscillator. Approximate expressions describing these regimes are also provided.

Nonlinear effects on the dynamics of quantum harmonic modes coupled through angular momentum

N. Canosa, R. Rossignoli, Javier Gonzalo Garcia +2 more

Abstract We investigate nonlinear effects on the dynamics of entanglement and other quantum observables in a system of two harmonic modes coupled through angular momentum. The nonlinearity arises from a Kerr-type anharmonic term in each mode. The emergence and evolution of entanglement, non-Gaussianity, photon number, photon antibunching and squeezing are examined for different initial coherent product states and couplings, through exact diagonalization in a truncated basis. It is shown that the anharmonic terms, even if weak, can lead to very significant effects for such initial states, considerably enhancing and stabilizing entanglement and leading to a non negligible non-Gaussianity of the evolved states. They also affect other observables, stabilizing the dynamics after an initial transient regime, for not too small initial average populations of each mode. Analytic short-time approximate expressions are also provided.

Dynamics of entanglement between two harmonic modes in stable and unstable regimes

Lorena Rebón, N. Canosa, R. Rossignoli

The exact dynamics of the entanglement between two harmonic modes generated by an angular momentum coupling is examined. Such a system arises when considering a particle in a rotating anisotropic harmonic trap or a charged particle in a fixed harmonic potential in a magnetic field, and it exhibits a rich dynamical structure, with stable, unstable, and critical regimes according to the values of the rotational frequency or field and trap parameters. Consequently, it is shown that the entanglement generated from an initially separable Gaussian state can exhibit quite distinct evolutions, ranging from quasiperiodic behavior in stable sectors to different types of unbounded increase in critical and unstable regions. The latter lead, respectively, to logarithmic and linear growth of the entanglement entropy with time. It is also shown that entanglement can be controlled by tuning the frequency, such that it can be increased, kept constant, or returned to a vanishing value with just stepwise frequency variations. Exact asymptotic expressions for the entanglement entropy in the different dynamical regimes are provided.

The evolution and two-mode squeezed states of the time-dependent two coupled harmonic oscillators

Jiangfan Li, Huang Chun-Jia, Jiang Zong-Fu +2 more

A closed solution of the Schrdinger equation for a timedependent two coupled harmonic oscillators including a driving part and a twomode coupled part is derived by adopting the LewisRiesenfeld invariant theory and properly chosen Hermitian invariant operators. The evolution operator of the system and the condition for generating twomode squeezed states are obtained. It is shown that the quantum fluctuation of squeezed states of the system is independent of the driving part, but depends on the initial states of the system.

Threshold effect and entanglement enhancement through local squeezing of initial separable states in continuous-variable systems

Chen Er, Ning Ning Chung, Lock Yue Chew

We investigate the dynamical enhancement of entanglement by means of local squeezing of initial separable Gaussian states in two coupled harmonic oscillator systems. Interestingly, the maximum generation of entanglement between the two modes is not a monotonically increasing function of the squeezing parameter. Instead, there exists a critical degree of squeezing r c for the maximum entanglement to be enhanced. For the coupled oscillator systems considered, we have derived the analytical expressions of r c .

Exact Gaussian Entanglement Dynamics and Initial-State Control in Coupled Parametric Oscillators

Roberto Bernal-Jaquez, Hector H. Hernandez-Hernandez, Alexander Schaum +1 more

We study two bilinearly coupled harmonic oscillators driven by a common time-dependent spring. A fixed normal-mode transformation reduces the pair to two parametric oscillators, each solved exactly by its Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant and Ermakov-Pinney amplitude, including the ladder-operator construction and the Lewis-Riesenfeld phase. For invariant-vacuum inputs the physical two-mode covariance matrix is obtained in closed form, and the logarithmic negativity collapses to $E_{N}=\frac{1}{2} \operatorname{arcosh}(X/2)$, where a single dimensionless invariant $X \geq 2$ measures the relative phase-space deformation of the two normal modes. We give a normalization-explicit account of the Duan--Simon comparison: after local symplectic optimization the Duan test and the positive partial transpose share the entanglement threshold for this pure exchange-symmetric Gaussian family, but the optimized Duan quantity is a witness, not an independent measure, with $D_{\rm opt}/D_{\rm sep}=e^{-E_N}$. We carefully separate a genuinely separable product preparation from the already-entangled ground state of the coupled Hamiltonian, and use only the former for claims of entanglement generation. Under sinusoidal stiffness modulation a separable input shows bounded correlations away from resonance and sustained growth near parametric resonance, and we demonstrate numerically that the initial width and chirp act as two independent, experimentally accessible controls of the entanglement at a chosen target time. An $SU(1,1)$ formulation identifies $2 E_{N}$ with the hyperbolic separation of the two normal-mode squeezing trajectories on the $SU(1,1)/U(1)$ disk and shows that entanglement is governed by both the relative squeezing magnitude and the relative squeezing angle; ; we exhibit regimes in which nearly equal magnitudes still produce strong entanglement through the angle alone.

The dynamic of quantum entanglement of two dimensional harmonic oscillator in non-commutative space

Azangue Koumetio Armel, Yiande Deuto Germain, Alain Giresse Tene +1 more

Abstract In the present paper, we study the influence of non-commutativity on entanglement in a system of two oscillators-modes in interaction with its environment. The considered system is a two-dimensional harmonic oscillator in non-commuting spatial coordinates coupled to its environment. The dynamics of the covariance matrix, the separability criteria for two Gaussian states in non-commutative space coordinates, and the logarithmic negativity are used to evaluate the quantum entanglement in the system, which is compared to the commutative space coordinates case. The result is applied for two initially entangled states, namely the squeezed vacuum and squeezed thermal states. It can be observed that the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death appears more early in the system for the case of squeezed vacuum state than in the case of squeezed thermal state. Thereafter, it is also observed that non-commutativity effects lead to an increasing of entanglement of initially entangled quantum states, and reduce the separability in the open quantum system. It turns out that a separable state in the usual commutative quantum mechanics might be entangled in non-commutative extension.
