Entanglement distribution over the subsystems and its invariance

Abstract

We study the entanglement dynamics of two qubits, each of which is embedded into its local amplitude-damping reservoir, and the entanglement distribution among all the bipartite subsystems including qubit-qubit, qubit-reservoir, and reservoir-reservoir. It is found that the entanglement can be stably distributed among all components, which is much different to the result obtained under the Born-Markovian approximation by C. E. L\'{o}pez et al., and particularly it also satisfies an identity. Our unified treatment includes the previous results as special cases. The result may give help to understand the physical nature of entanglement under decoherence.

Entanglement distribution and its invariance

Qingjun Tong, Hong‐Gang Luo, Changhun Oh

We study the entanglement dynamics of a two-qubit system, each of which is embedded into its local reservoir, and the entanglement distribution among all the bipartite subsystems including qubit-qubit, qubit-reservoir, and reservoir-reservoir. It is found that the entanglement can be stably distributed among all components and particularly it also satisfies an identity firstly given by Yonac, Yu and Eberly (J. Phys. B 40, S45 (2007)) for a double J-C model without decoherence. While the explicit distribution of the entanglement is dependent of the detail of the model, even the approximation used, the identity remains unchanged. Our unified treatment includes the previous results in the literature as special cases. The result reveals the profound nature of the entanglement and should have significant implications for quantum information processing. below) has been satisfied at any time. This may be not surprising since the double J-C model has no decoherence and any initial information can be preserved in the time evolution. However, it would be surprising if the identity is still valid in the presence of the decoherence, in which a non-equilibrium relaxation process is involved. In this paper, we show that it is indeed true for such a system consisted of two qubits locally interacting with two reser- voirs. We find that the distribution of the entanglement among the bipartite subsystems is dependent of the ex- plicit property of the environment and its coupling with the qubit. The rich dynamical behaviors obtained pre- viously in the literature can be regarded as the special cases of our present result or Markovian approximation. Particularly, we find that the entanglement can stably distribute among all the bipartite subsystems if the qubit and its environment can form a bound state and the non- Markovian effect is important. Irrespective of how dis- tributes the entanglement, it is found that the identity about the entanglement in the whole system can be sat- isfied at any time, which reveals the profound physics of the entanglement dynamics. We consider two qubits interacting with two uncorre- lated vacuum reservoirs. Due to the dynamical indepen- dence between the two local subsystems, we can firstly solve the single subsystem, then apply the result obtained to the double-qubit case. The Hamiltonian of each local subsystem is (16)

Statistical portrait of the entanglement decay of two-qubit memories

K. M. Fonseca-Romero, Julián Martínez-Rincón, Carlos Viviescas

We present an approach to the study of entanglement decay which focuses on collective properties. As an example, we investigate the entanglement decay of a two-qubit system produced by local identical reservoirs acting on the qubits for three experimentally and theoretically relevant cases. We study the probability distributions of disentanglement times, a quantity independent of the measure used to quantify entanglement, and the time-dependent probability distribution of concurrence. Analytical results are obtained for initially uniformly distributed pure states. The calculation of these probability distributions gives a complete insight into how different decoherence channels affect the entanglement initially contained in the set of two-qubit pure states. Numerical results are reported for randomly distributed initial mixed states. Although the paper focuses in Markovian noisy channels, we show that our results also describe nonautonomous and non-Markovian channels.

System-reservoir dynamics of quantum and classical correlations

Jonas Maziero, T. Werlang, F. F. Fanchini +2 more

We examine the system-reservoir dynamics of classical and quantum correlations in the decoherence phenomenon within a two-qubit composite system interacting with two independent environments. The most common noise channels (amplitude damping, phase damping, bit flip, bit-phase flip, and phase flip) are analyzed. By analytical and numerical analyses we find that, contrary to what is usually stated in the literature, decoherence may occur without entanglement between the system and the environment. We also show that, in some cases, the bipartite quantum correlation initially present in the system is completely evaporated and not transferred to the environments.

Decoherence dynamics of open qubit systems

Qingjun Tong

The thesis is contributed to the study of the decoherence dynamics of dissipative qubit systems. We reveal the profound impact of the formation of a bound state between the qubit and its local environment on the decoherence dynamics of qubit system in non-Markovian regime. We find that the decoherence can be suppressed greatly under the non-Markovian dynamics when the bound state is formed. Consequently, the entanglement can be partially preserved in the steady state. A criterion on this decoherence/disentanglement suppression is given explicitly. It can give a useful guideline on the decoherence control in experiment. We also find that the entanglement can be stably distributed among all components and particularly it always satisfies an identity. Our unified treatment includes the previous results in the literatures as special cases. The result reveals the profound nature of the entanglement and should have significant implications for quantum information processing.

Dephasing-Induced distribution of entanglement in tripartite quantum systems

Sovik Roy, Md. Manirul Ali, Abhijit Mandal +1 more

We investigate the distribution of entanglement in tripartite quantum systems under the influence of noisy environment. Entanglement distribution is an important concept to understand the robustness of entanglement in multipartite systems, while preserving multipartite entanglement amid decoherence remains a major challenge. Measuring multipartite entanglement in mixed states under decoherence is challenging. We quantify tripartite entanglement using relative entropy due to its applicability to both pure and mixed states. In this work, we explore how entanglement is distributed among the qubits of multipartite states when the three qubits are exposed to multipartite dephasing setting. In our study we use various pure and mixed tripartite states subjected to both Markovian and non-Markovian Local/Common bosonic reservoir at finite temperature. We show that the robustness of tripartite systems to decoherence depends on the distribution of entanglement and its interaction with various configurations and parameters of the bath.
