Abstract

Quantum correlations typically decrease with increasing noise, although classical correlators (CCors) may rise for a particular class of states with noise. To analyse the behavior of classical correlation (CC) in the presence of local noise, we scrutinize the set of classical correlators, axiomatic CC measures like classical discord, and local work for Haar uniformly generated states. Like quantum correlation measures, we illustrate that when noise levels rise, the average value of the CC measures for noisy output states obtained from random input states decreases for most of the channels. We also demonstrate a connection between the CCors of the noise-affected multipartite states that are produced and the CCors of the initial states that exhibit exponential, polynomial, and constant behavior as the noise level changes. Moreover, based on CCors of the generalised N-qubit W state as input, we determine a method to discriminate between the quantum channels, namely phase damping, depolarizing, and amplitude damping channels. We also relate classical, quantum, and total correlation measures that exhibit a comparable reaction to decoherence for generic states.

A study of Quantum Correlation for Three Qubit States under the effect of Quantum Noisy Channels

Pratik K. Sarangi, Indranil Chakrabarty

We study the dynamics of quantum dissension for three qubit states in various dissipative channels such as amplitude damping, dephasing and depolarizing. Our study is solely based on Markovian environments where quantum channels are without memory and each qubit is coupled to its own environment. We start with mixed GHZ, mixed W, mixture of separable states, a mixed biseparable state, as the initial states and mostly observe that the decay of quantum dissension is asymptotic in contrast to sudden death of quantum entanglement in similar environments. This is a clear indication of the fact that quantum correlation in general is more robust against the effect of noise. However, for a given class of initial mixed states we find a temporary leap in quantum dissension for a certain interval of time. More precisely, we observe the revival of quantum correlation to happen for certain time period. This signifies that the measure of quantum correlation such as quantum discord, quantum dissension, defined from the information theoretic perspective is different from the correlation defined from the entanglement-separability paradigm and can increase under the effect of the local noise. We also study the effects of these channels on the monogamy score of each of these initial states. Interestingly, we find that for certain class of states and channels, there is change from negative values to positive values of the monogamy score with classical randomness as well as with time. This gives us an important insight in obtaining states which are freely sharable (polygamous state) from the states which are not freely sharable (monogamous). This is indeed a remarkable feature, as we can create monogamous states from polygamous states Monogamous states are considered to have more signatures of quantum ness and can be used for security purpose.

Behaviour of Quantum Correlations and Violation of Bell Inequalities in some Noisy Channels

Volkan Erol

Quantum Correlations are studied extensively in quantum information domain. Entanglement Measures and Quantum Discord are good examples of these actively studied correlations. Detection of violation in Bell inequalities is also a widely active area in quantum information theory world. In this work, we revisit the problem of analyzing the behavior of quantum correlations and violation of Bell inequalities in noisy channels. We extend the problem defined in a recent study by observing the changes in negativity measure, quantum discord and a modified version of Horodecki measure for violation of Bell inequalities under amplitude damping, phase damping and depolarizing channels. We report different interesting results for each of these correlations and measures. All these correlations and measures decrease under decoherence channels, but some changes are very dramatical comparing to others. We investigate also separability conditions of example studied states.

Correlation dynamics of two-parameter qubit—qutrit states under decoherence

Hao Yuan, Lian-Fu Wei

We investigate the dynamics of correlations for two-parameter qubit-qutrit states under various local decoherence channels including depahsing, phase-flip, bit- and trit-flip, bit- and trit-phase-flip, and depolarizing channels. We find that, under certain conditions, the classical correlations may not be affected by the noise or decay monotonically. The quantum correlations measured by measurement-induced disturbance (MID) show three types of dynamical behaviors: (i) monotonic decay to zero, (ii) monotonic decay to a nonzero steady value, (iii) increase from zero and then decrease to zero in a monotonic way. Consequently, we find that, differing from the dynamics of entanglement, the present classical and quantum correlations do not reveal sudden death behavior.

Probing correlations in two-mode bosonic fields via Gaussian noise channels

Huihui Li, Nan Li, Shunlong Luo

Gaussian noise channels arise naturally in many physical situations and play an important role in information transmission involving continuous-variable quantum systems. In this work we employ Gaussian noise channels to probe and characterize correlations in two-mode bosonic fields. Based on the fact that local channels often cause more decoherence for global states than for local states due to correlations, we introduce a notion of conditional coherence relative to a local channel, which is defined as the difference between the global and local decoherence caused by the channel. We discuss its connections with quantum discord and relative quantum Fisher information and propose a class of correlation quantifiers for two-mode bosonic states in terms of conditional coherence relative to local Gaussian noise channels. We prove that any nonproduct state exhibits such correlations and show that these correlation quantifiers are measures of total correlations, which may include both classical and quantum parts. We further illustrate these correlation quantifiers through several typical two-mode bosonic states and make a comparative study between these correlation quantifiers and other known ones such as entanglement and discord.

Restrictions on shareability of classical correlations for random multipartite quantum states

Saptarshi Roy, Shiladitya Mal, Aditi Sen

Unlike quantum correlations, the shareability of classical correlations (CCs) between two parties of a multipartite state is assumed to be free since there exist states for which CCs for each of the reduced states can simultaneously reach their algebraic maximum value. However, when one randomly picks out states from the state space, we find that the probability of obtaining those states possessing the algebraic maximum value is vanishingly small. Therefore, the possibility of a nontrivial upper bound on the distribution of CCs that is less than the algebraic maxima emerges. We explore this possibility by Haar uniformly generating random multipartite states and computing the frequency distribution for various CC measures, conventional classical correlators, and two axiomatic measures of classical correlations, namely, the classical part of quantum discord and local work of work-deficit. We find that the distributions are typically Gaussian-like and their standard deviations decrease with the increase in number of parties. It also reveals that, among the multiqubit random states, most of the reduced density matrices possess a low amount of CCs which can also be confirmed by the mean of the distributions, thereby showing a kind of restrictions on the shareability of classical correlations for random states. Furthermore, we also notice that the maximal value for random states is much lower than the algebraic maxima obtained for a set of states, and the gap between the two increases further for states with a higher number of parties. We report that, for a higher number of parties, the classical part of quantum discord and local work can follow a monogamy-based upper bound on shareability while classical correlators have a different upper bound. The trends of shareability for classical correlation measures in random states clearly demarcate between the axiomatic definition of classical correlations and the conventional ones.
