General Properties of Thermal Entanglement in an Arbitrary-Length Heisenberg Spin Chain

Abstract

We investigate general properties of thermal entanglement in arbitrary-length 1D Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain based on classifications of its eigenstates. The influences of magnetic field and temperature on entanglement are qualitatively discussed and three features are presented. The conclusions hold for both bipartite and multipartite entanglement, and are in agreement with the results numerically proven by Arnesen et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 59 (2001) 017901].

The thermal entanglement in a spin-1 Heisenberg XXZ chain

Ni Hui-Ying, Jianxing Fang, Xiaoyan Zhou +1 more

In this paper, the entanglement in a spin-1 Heisenberg XXZ chain with uniform and nonuniform external magnetic field is investigated in the terms of the measure of entanglement called 'negativity'. The effects of the external magnetic field, the anisotropy parameter and the temperature on the negativity are discussed respectively. It can be seen that the entanglement in this spin chain for any temperature is symmetric with respect to zero magnetic field. We calculate the partially transposed density matrix and give qualitatively results at different temperatures. In order to show the results clearly, the behavior of negativity is presented for five different cases. It can be found that the temperature and the external magnetic field can effect the feature of the thermal entanglement significantly. In addition, under certain condition, the negativity may be enhanced under a nonuniform magnetic field.

Ground State Entanglement in Spin Systems

Hironori Yano, Hidetoshi Nishimori

We study the entanglement between arbitrary two spins in the XY and the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin chains in a uniform magnetic field.The entanglement of pairwise qubits in these models is obtained as a function of magnetic field by exact and numerical calculations.We find that the behavior of entanglement in the isotropic XY model is qualitatively the same as that in the Heisenberg model.Properties of entanglement length are also discussed.

Thermal entanglement of spins in the Heisenberg model at low temperatures

M. Asoudeh, Vahid Karimipour

We calculate the entanglement between two spins in the ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain at low temperatures, and show that when only the ground state and the one-particle states are populated, the entanglement profile is a Gaussian with a characteristic length depending on the temperature and the coupling between spins. The magnetic field affects only the amplitude of the profile and not its characteristic length.

Natural Thermal and Magnetic Entanglement in the 1D Heisenberg Model

M. C. Arnesen, Sougato Bose, Vlatko Vedral

We investigate the entanglement between any two spins in a one dimensional Heisenberg chain as a function of temperature and the external magnetic field. We find that the entanglement in an antiferromagnetic chain can be increased by increasing the temperature or the external field. Increasing the field can also create entanglement between otherwise disentangled spins. This entanglement can be confirmed by testing Bell's inequalities involving any two spins in the solid.

Thermal entanglement properties of N-qubit quantum Heisenberg chain in a two-component magnetic field

Ümit Akıncı, Erol Vatansever, Yusuf Yüksel

We elucidate the finite temperature entanglement properties of $N=9$ qubits Heisenberg $XX$ and $XXZ$ models under the presence of a polarized magnetic field in $xz$ plane by means of concurrence concept. We perform a systematic analysis for a wide range of the system parameters. Our results suggest that the global phase regions which separate the entangled and non-entangled regions sensitively depend upon the spin-spin interaction term of the $z-$ component of two neighboring spins $J_{z}/J_{x}$, temperature as well as polarized magnetic field components. Thereby, we think that polarized magnetic field can be used a control parameter to determine the amount of thermal entanglement between pair of qubits for different temperatures and spin-spin interaction terms. Moreover, it has been found that the nearest-neighbor pair of qubits does not point out a re-entrant type entanglement character when one only deals with the nearest-neighbor pair of qubits. However, as one considers next-nearest neighbor pair of qubits, it is possible to see the evidences of re-entrant type entanglement behaviors.
