Persistent nonlocality in an ultracold-atom environment

Abstract

We investigate nonlocal quantum correlations arising between multiple two-level impurity atoms coupled to an ultracold bosonic gas. We find that the environment-induced dynamics of the impurity subsystem can generate nonlocal states that are robust against noise and violate a multipartite Bell inequality when projective spin measurements are made. Genuine multipartite nonlocality is also observed in a system of three impurities. We show that non-Markovian effects, and the persistence of coherences in the impurity subsystem, are crucial for preventing complete loss of nonlocality and allow for nonlocal correlations to be generated and maintained for extended periods of time.

Nonlocal quantum correlations in a bipartite quantum system coupled to a bosonic non-Markovian reservoir

Samira Elghaayda, Zakaria Dahbi, A.‐B. A. Mohamed +1 more

In this paper, we explore the dynamics of nonlocal correlations in a two-qubit system, that is, first prepared in a Gisin state and then interacts with a bosonic non-Markovian environment. We employ uncertainty-induced nonlocality (UIN) and the Horodecki measure (Bell function) to characterize the degree of nonclassical correlations and quantum nonlocality in the system, taking into account the influence of the non-Markovian reservoir. The dynamics of the UIN and the Bell nonlocality are next examined using the various parameters that define the non-Markovian reservoir and the initial Gisin state. Our results show that the amount of nonlocal correlations and the degree of violation of Bell’s inequality can be modulated by varying the physical parameters characterizing the non-Markovian reservoir and the initial Gisin state. We also show that in some specific cases, the system exhibits nonclassical correlations while the evolved Gisin state does not violate Bell’s inequality. Our results also confirm that UIN is robust than Bell’s nonlocality in the presence of decoherence induced by the interaction with the non-Markovian reservoir.

Robustness of quantum correlations in photonic systems under non-Markovian dephasing: theoretical analysis in the experimental range

K. Berrada, Smail B. Bougouffa

We investigate the preservation and dynamics of entanglement and Bell nonlocality in a two-photon system subject to local dephasing, particularly emphasizing environments exhibiting non-Markovian memory effects. By analyzing the interplay between entanglement, as measured by concurrence, and Bell inequality violation, we identify time regions where Bell inequality is not violated, even when concurrence remains high. This indicates that strongly entangled states do not always exhibit nonclassical correlations with certainty. Our study further explores the effects of refractive index variations, spectral width, and interaction symmetry, demonstrating how structured environments and controlled environmental interactions can mitigate decoherence and enhance the resilience of quantum correlations. We propose that these theoretical predictions can be tested using modifications of recent experimental optical setups. These findings provide valuable insights into the conditions under which quantum correlations remain irreproducible by classical local hidden-variable models, with direct implications for quantum communication, quantum information processing, and foundational studies in quantum mechanics. Furthermore, our findings highlight the crucial importance of quantum coherence in maintaining entanglement and nonlocality over extended time evolution. These results show remarkable alignment with the experimental observations, demonstrating high accuracy and consistency within the expected parameter range.

Enhanced quantum nonlocality induced by the memory of a thermal-squeezed environment

Po‐Wen Chen, Md. Manirul Ali, Shiaw-Huei Chen

Abstract We investigate the transient non-Markovian dynamics of quantum nonlocality for a pair of two-level atoms coupled to a common thermal-squeezed environment. We use Bell-CHSH inequality, steering inequality, and entanglement as theoretical tools to investigate the nonlocality dynamics. We see significant differences between the non-Markovian nonlocality dynamics and its Markovian counterpart. We mainly focus on quantum steering nonlocality which has gained much interest recently. An enhanced quantum nonlocality is shown through the violation of steering inequality and entanglement in the non-Markovian regime of the structured environment. A close correspondence is shown between steering nonlocality and entanglement dynamics.

Dynamics of nonlocality in bipartite quantum systems subjected to global noise environment

Fan‐Zhen Kong, Junlong Zhao

Abstract We investigate the Bell nonlocality dynamics of bipartite quantum systems under three distinct types of global decoherence environments: global amplitude damping noise, globally correlated classical noise, and global phase-damping noise. By combining numerical optimization techniques over Bell inequalities—specifically the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt inequality—and describing the global noise-evolution process of a two-qubit system with the Kraus operator formalism, we systematically characterize the evolution of quantum nonlocality in a two-qubit system. Our results demonstrate that, under a global amplitude damping noise environment, precise temporal modulation of the amplitude damping channel enables the composite system to retain maximal Bell-nonlocal correlations in its final state. In contrast, globally correlated classical noise fields induce exponential suppression of Bell inequality violations. Remarkably, the systems subjected to global phase-damping noise exhibit pronounced robustness to nonlocality. These findings highlight the critical role of global noise in nonlocality dynamics.

Nonlocality with ultracold atoms in a lattice

Sophie Pelisson, Luca Pezzè, Augusto Smerzi

We study the creation of nonlocal states with ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice. We show that these states violate Bell inequality by measuring one- and two-body correlations. Our scheme only requires beam-splitting operations and global phase shifts, and can be realized within the current technology, employing single-site addressing. This proposal paves the way to study multipartite nonlocality and entanglement in ultracold-atomic systems.

Nonlocal correlation dynamics of two qubits interacting with a cavity coherent field: time-dependent atomic location effects

Mostafa Hashem, Fahad Aljuaydi, Atta Ur Rahman +1 more

Abstract This work delves into the nonlocal correlation dynamics of the maximum-Bell nonlocality (MBN), uncertainty-induced nonlocality (UIN), and concurrence of two two-level atoms having time-dependent atomic locations within Tavis-Cummings model. By considering a scenario where the pure two qubits resonantly interact with an even coherent cavity field through a two-photon transition, we explore the nonlocal correlation dynamics of both moving and stationary two-atom configurations under varying conditions and coupling parameters. Our findings reveal that the coherent cavity induces the successful generation of nonlocal correlations between atoms in both modes, with moving atoms exhibiting higher and symmetrical nonlocal correlations. Interestingly, dynamical maps showcase distinct behaviors for atoms at rest, exhibiting precocity at higher atom-cavity strengths. Moreover, equal coupling strength results in lower quantum correlations. The UIN measure emerges as the most robust quantum function, showing enhancements with sustained unequal coupling strengths, contrasting with the MBN and concurrence. These insights offer a nuanced understanding of nonlocal correlations in the Tavis-Cummings model, essential for advancing quantum information science and technology.
