Abstract

In this paper, a two-level atom coupled with a double Lorentzian spectrum is solved by pseudomode theory, and an analytic representation of the density operator is obtained. Second, the paper investigates the entanglement witness and entropy uncertainty, and gets the analytical representation of entanglement, uncertainty, and their relationship. The environmental effects of the double Lorentzian spectrum are explained by non-Markovianity. In addition, this paper studies the influence of the Zeno effect on entanglement witness and uncertainty. The results show that the Zeno effect not only can effectively prolong the time of entanglement witness and reduce the lower bound of the entropy uncertainty but also can greatly enhance the time of entanglement witness and reduce the entanglement value of witness.

The quantum entropic uncertainty relation and entanglement witness in the two-atom system coupling with the non-Markovian environments

Hong-Mei Zou, Mao-Fa Fang, Bai-Yuan Yang +3 more

The quantum entropic uncertainty relation and entanglement witness in the two-atom system coupling with the non-Markovian environments are studied by the time-convolutionless master-equation approach. The influence of non-Markovian effect and detuning on the lower bound of the quantum entropic uncertainty relation and entanglement witness is discussed in detail. The results show that, only if the two non-Markovian reservoirs are identical, increasing detuning and non-Markovian effect can reduce the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty relation, lengthen the time region during which the entanglement can be witnessed, and effectively protect the entanglement region witnessed by the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty relation. The results can be applied in quantum measurement, quantum cryptography task and quantum information processing.

Witnessing entanglement between two atoms in dissipative cavities by the entropic uncertainty relation

Hong‐Mei Zou, Mao-Fa Fang

Based on the entropic uncertainty relation in the presence of quantum memory, the entanglement witness of two atoms in dissipative cavities is investigated by using the time-convolutionless master-equation approach. We discuss in detail the influences of the non-Markovian effect and the atom–cavity coupling on the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty relation and entanglement witness. The results show that, with the coupling increasing, the number of the time zone witnessed will increase so that the entanglement can be repeatedly witnessed. Enhancing the non-Markovian effect can add the number of the time zone witnessed and lengthen the time of entanglement witness. The results can be applied in quantum measurement, entanglement detecting, quantum cryptography task, and quantum information processing.

Characterization of the measurement uncertainty dynamics in an open system

Xi-Hao Fang, Fei Ming, Dong Wang

Uncertainty principle plays a crucial role in quantum mechanics, because it captures the essence of the inevitable randomness associated with the outcomes of two incompatible quantum measurements. Information entropy can perfectly describe this type of randomness in information theory, because entropy can measure the degree of chaos in a given quantum system. However, the quantum-assisted uncertainty of entropy eventually inflate inevitably as the quantum correlations of the system are progressively corrupted by noise from the surrounding environment. In this paper, we investigate the dynamical features of the von Neumann entropic uncertainty in the presence of quantum memory, exploring the time evolution of entropic uncertainty suffer noise from the surrounding. Noteworthily, how the environmental noises affect the uncertainty of entropy is revealed, and specifically we verify how two types of noise environments, AD channel and BPF channel, influence the uncertainty. Meanwhile, we put forward some effective operation strategies to reduce the magnitude of the measurement uncertainty under the open systems. Furthermore, we explore the applications of the uncertainty relation investigated on entanglement witness and quantum channel capacity. Therefore , in open quantum correlation systems, our investigations could provide an insight into quantum measurement estimation

Zeno dynamics in quantum open systems

Yu-Ran Zhang, Heng Fan

Quantum Zeno effect shows that frequent observations can slow down or even stop the unitary time evolution of an unstable quantum system. This effect can also be regarded as a physical consequence of the statistical indistinguishability of neighboring quantum states. The accessibility of quantum Zeno dynamics under unitary time evolution can be quantitatively estimated by quantum Zeno time in terms of Fisher information. In this work, we investigate the accessibility of quantum Zeno dynamics in quantum open systems by calculating noisy Fisher information when a trace preserving and completely positive map is assumed. We firstly study the consequences of non-Markovian noise on quantum Zeno effect and give the exact forms of the dissipative Fisher information and the quantum Zeno time. Then, for the operator-sum representation, an achievable upper bound of the quantum Zeno time is given with the help of the results in noisy quantum metrology. It is of significance that the noise reducing the accuracy in the entanglement-enhanced parameter estimation can conversely be favorable for the accessibility of quantum Zeno dynamics of entangled states.

Dynamics of the measurement uncertainty in an open system and its controlling

Yu-Bing Yao, Dong Wang, Fei Ming +1 more

Abstract The uncertainty principle is one of the most remarkable features of quantum mechanics, originally expressed in terms of the standard deviation of two incompatible observables. Alternatively, it can be modified and written in the form of entropy to eliminate the defect in the form of standard deviation, and can also be generalized by including a memory particle that is entangled with the particle to be measured. Herein we consider a realistic scenario where the particle A to be measured is in an open environment and B as quantum memory is under an environment typically characterized by non-Markovian regimes. Specifically, it shows that the quantum memory and the non-Markovian effect can essentially inhibit the increase of uncertainty, however, the quantum memory-assisted uncertainty will finally inflate inevitably, due to that the quantum correlation of the system will be damaged gradually by the noise from the surrounding environments. To be explicit, we study the dynamic evolution of the entropic uncertainty and correlation in open system where both particles experience the noise channels. Meanwhile, we put forward some effective operation strategies to reduce the magnitude of the measurement uncertainty under the open systems. Furthermore, we explore the applications of the uncertainty relation investigated on entanglement witness and quantum channel capacity. Thus, our investigations might offer an insight into quantum measurement estimation in open systems.

Witnessing entanglement between two two-level atoms moving inside a leaky cavity under classical control

J. Taghipour, B. Mojaveri, Alireza Dehghani

Based on the quantum memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation (QMA-EUR), we investigate the Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics of entanglement witness in a two-atom system that asymmetrically are coupled to a leaky cavity with two-photon relaxation. The atoms are two-level systems, they move inside the cavity and interact with a classical driving laser field. We discuss in detail the effects of the translational movement of the atoms, classical driving field and atom-cavity coupling on the protection of entanglement witness. Our results show that with a regular increase in the intensity of the classical driving field, the entanglement region witnessed by lower bound of QMA-EUR increases and the time of entanglement witness gets longer. In the Markovian regime, we find that quantum entanglement between the moving atoms can be witnessed for a longer time by increasing the velocity of the atoms. However, in the non-Markovian regime, higher speeds are required to witness entanglement over long time intervals. In addition, we conclude that the entanglement region witnessed by the lower bound of QMA-EUR can be protected in both the symmetrical and asymmetrical atom-cavity coupling regimes. In the asymmetrical regime, a better protection can be achieved when the memory atom is coupled to the cavity field stronger than the other atom.
