Non-Markovianity and quantumness: Insights from dephasing channels

Y. Aiache, C. Seida, K. El Anouz +1 more

The description of how different quantum features, such as non-Markovianity and quantumness, interact in quantum channels is an important step in designing and managing quantum systems. Here, we look at three non-Markovian dephasing channels: pink, brown, and static noise. We investigate and evaluate various measures of non-Markovianity in these channels. Indeed, the proposed measurements include trace norm, entropy, and quantum capacity. We investigate the effect of non-Markovianity on the quantum nature of these channels. Our results show that increasing the degree of non-Markovianity in the suggested channels does not always improve the channel's quantumness. Furthermore, given the aforementioned quantum channels, the l2 norm of quantum coherence and mixedness satisfies the trade-off relation, which is critical for understanding how quantum resources and noise interact in open quantum systems.

Experimental investigation of convex mixtures of Markovian and Non-Markovian single qubit channels on NISQ devices

I. J. David, Ilya Sinayskiy, Francesco Petruccione

Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices have been proposed as a versatile tool for simulating open quantum systems. Recently, the use of NISQ devices as simulators for non-Markovian open quantum systems has helped verify the current descriptions of non-Markovianity in quantum physics. In this work, convex mixtures of channels are simulated using NISQ devices and classified as either Markovian or non-Markovian using the CP-divisibility criteria. Two cases are considered: two Markovian channels being convexly mixed to form a non-Markovian channel and vice versa. This work replicates the experiments performed in a linear optical setup, using NISQ devices, with the addition of a convex mixture of non-Markovian channels that was designed to address some of the problems faced in the experiments performed in the linear optical setup. The NISQ devices used were provided by the IBM Quantum Experience (IBM QE). The results obtained show that, using NISQ devices and within some error, convex mixtures of Markovian channels lead to a non-Markovian channel and vice versa.

Non-Markovianity of open two-level system by means of quantum coherence

He Zhi, Li Li, Chunmei Yao +1 more

We propose an approach to measuring non-Markovianity of an open two-level system from quantum coherence perspective including l1 norm of coherence and quantum relative entropy of coherence, and derive corresponding non-Markovian conditions. Further, as a particular application, non-Markovian conditions of an open two-level system undergoing phase damping channel, random unitary channel and amplitude damping channel, respectively are investigated. Specifically speaking, for the three channels we obtain non-Markovian conditions based on l1 norm of coherence at any initial state of system, and find that non-Markovian conditions are the same as the conditions of other measurements, i.e., information back-flow, divisibility and quantum mutual entropy for the phase damping channel and amplitude damping channel, but non-Markovian conditions new and different from the conditions of other measurements for random unitary channel. On the other hand, for phase damping channel we obtain non-Markovian conditions based on quantum relative entropy of coherence at any initial state of system, which are the same as the conditions of other measures, i.e., information back-flow, divisibility and quantum mutual entropy. However, for the random unitary channel and amplitude damping channel we obtain non-Markovian conditions at maximally coherent state of system.
