On atomic state purity operator, degree of state purity and concurrence in the JC and anti-JC models

Joseph Akeyo Omolo

Published Jul 6, 2022• 0 citations

Abstract

The state of an atom in a bipartite qubit, Jaynes-Cummings (JC) or anti-Jaynes-Cummings (aJC) interaction is described by a reduced density operator. The purity of the state has been measured by taking the trace of the square of the reduced density operator. In this article, we define the square of the reduced density operator as the state purity operator, composed of a completely pure state part and a completely mixed state part. The coefficient of the completely mixed state part is the mixed state measure, formally obtained as the determinant of the reduced density operator and it is therefore directly related to tangle, the square of concurrence of the bipartite system. Expressed in various equivalent forms, the mixed state measure provides all the characteristic elements of state purity or entanglement, such as eigenvalues of the reduced density operator, nonclassicality measures and a state purity complex amplitude. The argument of the state purity complex amplitude in polar form is the phase of the state purity measure, which defines the degree of purity of the state. We find that the degree of purity and concurrence are complementary quantifiers satisfying a complementarity relation.

Concurrence-based entanglement measures for isotropic states

Pranaw Rungta, Carlton M. Caves

We discuss properties of entanglement measures called I-concurrence and tangle. For a bipartite pure state, I-concurrence and tangle are simply related to the purity of the marginal density operators. The I-concurrence (tangle) of a bipartite mixed state is the minimum average I-concurrence (tangle) of ensemble decompositions of pure states of the joint density operator. Terhal and Vollbrecht [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 2625 (2000)] have given an explicit formula for the entanglement of formation of isotropic states in arbitrary dimensions. We use their formalism to derive comparable expressions for the I-concurrence and tangle of isotropic states.

Establishment of an entangled atom-field state in the Jaynes-Cummings model

Simon J. D. Phoenix, P. L. Knight

We use the eigenstates of the reduced density operators to give an explicit form of the entangled atom-field state in the Jaynes-Cummings model. We relate the expansion coefficients to physical quantities and discuss the effect of atomic coherence on this entangled state.

Entanglement of bipartite partly non-orthogonal 1 2 -spin coherent states

Mostafa Mansour, Zakaria Dahbi

Abstract We investigate the entanglement of a bipartite partly non-orthogonal state of the form | ϕ ⟩ = u | ξ ⟩ 1 ⊗ | 1 ⟩ 2 + v | ξ ⟩ 1 ⊗ | 0 ⟩ 2 + w | ξ ′ ⟩ 1 ⊗ | 1 ⟩ 2 + z | ξ ′ ⟩ 1 ⊗ | 0 ⟩ 2 through 1 2 -spin coherent states by adopting the concurrence as a measure to quantify the degree of entanglement of the two-qubit system. After, we study the amount of entanglement of mixed states represented by a statistical mixture of partly non-orthogonal bipartite pure states. We also express the lower and upper bounds of the squared concurrence of mixed states in terms of the amplitudes of spin coherent states.

Bipartite concurrence and localized coherence

Chang‐shui Yu, He‐Shan Song

Based on a proposed coherence measure, we show that the local coherence of a bipartite quantum pure state (coherence of its reduced density matrix) is exactly the same as the minimal average coherence with all potential pure-state realizations under consideration. In particular, it is shown that bipartite concurrence of pure states just captures the maximal difference between local coherence and the average coherence of one subsystem induced by local operations on the other subsystem with the assistance of classical communications, which provides an alternative operational meaning for bipartite concurrence of pure states. The relation between concurrence and the proposed coherence measure can also be extended to bipartite mixed states.

Coherence, entanglement, and complementarity in mixed classical light

Asma Al-Qasimi

The classical analogues of quantum correlations have been the subject of considerable interest in the past few years; however, all of these investigations consider the classical analogue of only pure quantum mechanical states. In this work, we study mixed classical light states and derive relations between the polarization coherence of the field and the (classical) entanglement between its degrees of freedom. We show, for a specific model of mixed states, where the purity is determined by a single parameter, how the coherence shared between polarization and entanglement shrinks as the level of purity decreases. The sum of the square of polarization and entanglement remains constant, a behavior consistent with previous results [Phys. Rev. Lett.117, 153901 (2016)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.117.153901] of pure states, even though the constant for the mixed-state case is now smaller in value.

Negativity as entanglement degree of the Jaynes–Cummings model

Seyed Javad Akhtarshenas, M Farsi

In this paper, by using the notion of negativity, we study the degree of entanglement of a two-level atom interacting with a quantized radiation field, described by the Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM). We suppose that initially the field is in a pure state and the atom is in a general mixed state. In this case the negativity fully captures the entanglement of the JCM. We investigate the case that the initial state of the field is a coherent state. The influences of the detuning on the degree of entanglement are also examined.
