Noise-induced dynamical localization and delocalization

Abstract

We investigate the effect of a two-level jump process or random telegraph noise on a square wave driven tight-binding lattice. In the absence of the noise, the system is known to exhibit dynamical localization for specific ratios of the amplitude and the frequency of the drive. We obtain an exact expression for the probability propagator to study the stability of dynamical localization against telegraph noise. Our analysis shows that in the presence of noise, a proper tuning of the noise parameters destroys dynamical localization of the clean limit in one case, while it induces dynamical localization in an otherwise delocalized phase of the clean model. Numerical results help verify the analytical findings. A study of the dynamics of entanglement entropy from an initially half-filled state offers complementary perspective.

Quantum dephasing dynamics in the presence of asymmetric random telegraph noise

Yanyan 言言 Feng 冯, Jing Ren, Xiang-Ji Cai +1 more

Abstract Random telegraph noise (RTN) has been widely used to describe the environmental effects on open quantum systems. In most cases, it is assumed that the environmental noise described by RTN has symmetric properties. However, in some important physical processes, the asymmetric characteristics of environmental noise play a crucial role in the dynamical evolution of the quantum systems. We theoretically study the dephasing dynamics of a two-level quantum system induced by RTN with asymmetric properties. Within the framework of the stochastic Liouville equation, we derive the exact expression of the decoherence function quantifying the coherence evolution of the quantum system. It is shown that, in contrast to the case of the symmetric RTN, the asymmetric RTN can induce a frequency shift and may lead to non-Markovian behavior in the decoherence dynamics of the quantum system. Furthermore, by adjusting the average transition rate, the transition rate difference, and the transition amplitude difference of the environmental noise, the decoherence dynamics of the quantum system can be effectively modulated.

Stochastic resets in the context of a tight-binding chain driven by an oscillating field

Sushanta Dattagupta, Debraj Das, Shamik Gupta

Abstract In this work, we study in the framework of the so-called driven tight-binding chain (TBC) the issue of quantum unitary dynamics interspersed at random times with stochastic resets mimicking non-unitary evolution due to interactions with the external environment, the driven TBC involves a quantum particle hopping between the nearest-neighbour sites of a one-dimensional lattice and subject to an external forcing field that is periodic in time. We consider the resets to be taking place at exponentially-distributed random times. Using the method of stochastic Liouville equation, we derive exact results for the probability at a given time for the particle to be found on different sites and averaged with respect to different realizations of the dynamics. We establish the remarkable effect of localization of the TBC particle on the sites of the underlying lattice at long times. The system in the absence of stochastic resets exhibits delocalization of the particle, whereby the particle does not have a time-independent probability distribution of being found on different sites even at long times, and, consequently, the mean-squared displacement of the particle about its initial location has an unbounded growth in time. One may induce localization in the bare model only through tuning the ratio of the strength to the frequency of the field to have a special value, namely, equal to one of the zeros of the zeroth order Bessel function of the first kind. We show here that localization may be induced by a far simpler procedure of subjecting the system to stochastic resets.

Quantum dephasing induced by non-Markovian random telegraph noise

Xiangji Cai

We theoretically study the dynamical dephasing of a quantum two level system interacting with an environment which exhibits non-Markovian random telegraph fluctuations. The time evolution of the conditional probability of the environmental noise is governed by a generalized master equation depending on the environmental memory effect. The expression of the dephasing factor is derived exactly which is closely associated with the memory kernel in the generalized master equation for the conditional probability of the environmental noise. In terms of three important types memory kernels, we discuss the quantum dephasing dynamics of the system and the non-Markovian character exhibiting in the dynamical dephasing induced by non-Markovian random telegraph noise. We show that the dynamical dephasing of the quantum system does not always exhibit non-Markovian character which results from that the non-Markovian character in the dephasing dynamics depends both on the environmental non-Markovian character and the interaction between the system and environment. In addition, the dynamical dephasing of the quantum system can be modulated by the external modulation frequency of the environment. This result is significant to quantum information processing and helpful for further understanding non-Markovian dynamics of open quantum systems.

Two-photon processes in the presence of phase- or frequency-telegraph noise: Experimental study

R. Boscaino, Rosario N. Mantegna

Stochastic fields with non-Gaussian Markovian phase or frequency jumplike noise are produced at microwave frequency and used to induce two-photon (TP) processes in a S=(1/2 spin system. The influence of the field statistics on the TP-induced second-order response is experimentally investigated in a system with very short relaxation times, in its stationary state and in the weak-field limit. In the case of frequency-telegraph noise the experimental spectra of the nonlinear response are found to reproduce roughly the spectral profiles of the corresponding driving fields but with a larger width. When the telegraph noise modulates the phase of the field, the relationship between input and output spectra depends on the phase-jump amplitude ${\ensuremath{\varphi}}_{0}$. For ${\ensuremath{\varphi}}_{0}$=\ensuremath{\pi}/4 the spectrum of the response is much broader than the input one, whereas it is much narrower for ${\ensuremath{\varphi}}_{0}$=\ensuremath{\pi}/2. The experimental results are interpreted using the calculation of the TP-induced second-order response worked out in the preceding paper [Boscaino and Mantegna, Phys. Rev. A 40, 5 (1989)].

Dynamical decoupling of random telegraph noise in a two-qubit gate

Antonio D’Arrigo, G. Falci, Elisabetta Paladino

Controlling the dynamics of entanglement and preventing its disappearance are central requisites for any implementation of quantum information processing. Solid state qubits are frequently affected by random telegraph noise due to bistable impurities of different nature coupled to the device. In this paper, we investigate the possibility to achieve an efficient universal two-qubit gate in the presence of random telegraph noise by periodic dynamical decoupling. We find an analytic form of the gate error as a function of the number of applied pulses valid when the gate time is much shorter then the telegraphic process correlation time. The analysis is further supplemented by exact numerical results demonstrating the feasibility of a highly-efficient universal two-qubit gate.

Non-Markovian dynamics of single- and two-qubit systems interacting with Gaussian and non-Gaussian fluctuating transverse environments

Matteo A. C. Rossi, Matteo G. A. Paris

We address the interaction of single- and two-qubit systems with an external transverse fluctuating field and analyze in detail the dynamical decoherence induced by Gaussian noise and random telegraph noise (RTN). Upon exploiting the exact RTN solution of the time-dependent von Neumann equation, we analyze in detail the behavior of quantum correlations and prove the non-Markovianity of the dynamical map in the full parameter range, i.e., for either fast or slow noise. The dynamics induced by Gaussian noise is studied numerically and compared to the RTN solution, showing the existence of (state dependent) regions of the parameter space where the two noises lead to very similar dynamics. We show that the effects of RTN noise and of Gaussian noise are different, i.e., the spectrum alone is not enough to summarize the noise effects, but the dynamics under the effect of one kind of noise may be simulated with high fidelity by the other one.
