Entanglement in Anisotropic Heisenberg Model with Non-Uniform External Fields

Abstract

We study entanglement properties of the three-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg model with both uniform and non-uniform external magnetic fields. Analytic expressions for the measures of entanglement at the ground state are obtained. We show that the pairwise entanglement and global entanglement of the system at the ground state clearly depend on the strength and configuration of external fields. The entanglement between some pairs can be enhanced by non-uniform external fields.

ENTANGLEMENT IN THE XY SPIN CHAIN WITH NONUNIFORM EXTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELDS

JUNPENG CAO, Z. Z. Sun, YIN SUN +2 more

We study the entanglement in the three-site Heisenberg XY model with nonuniform external magnetic fields and obtain analytic expressions for the measures of entanglement in the system with both the periodic and the open boundary conditions. We show that both the ground state and the excited states of the system possess remarkable entanglement properties and the entanglement clearly depends on the magnitude of external fields. We obtain the pairwise thermal entanglement of the system. We also discuss the boundary effects on the entanglement.

ENTANGLEMENT IN THE XY HEISENBERG MODEL

Xin Tian, Jia-tih Lin, Liang Liu +1 more

We investigate the thermal entanglement of two-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg XY model in the presence of an external nonuniform magnetic field B along the z-axis. Concurrence, the measure of entanglement is calculated and its property is studied in different cases. Two best models, Ising model under a uniform magnetic and isotropic model in a nonuniform magnetic field, are discovered. In the two models, the critical temperature Tc (above which there is no entanglement) can be enhanced and its concurrence is maximal.

Pairwise entanglement in the XX model with a magnetic impurity

Hong‐Chen Fu, A. I. Solomon, Xiaoguang Wang

For a three-qubit Heisenberg model in a uniform magnetic field, the pairwise thermal entanglement of any two sites is identical due to the exchange symmetry of sites. In this paper we consider the effect of a non-uniform magnetic field on the Heisenberg model, modelling a magnetic impurity on one site. Since pairwise entanglement is calculated by tracing out one of the three sites, the entanglement clearly depends on which site the impurity is located. When the impurity is located on the site which is traced out, that is, when it acts as an external field of the pair, the entanglement can be enhanced to the maximal value 1; while when the field acts on a site of the pair the corresponding concurrence can only be increased from 1/3 to 2/3.

Pairwise Entanglement in the Four-qubit Heisenberg XX Open Chain

Wanqiang Cao

The pairwise entanglement in the four-qubit Heisenberg XX open chain with external magnetic fields is calculated,and the analytical expressions for the measures of entanglement Concurrence are obtained.It is found that the entanglement between the boundary qubits can reach the value of 0.28 in the system with uniform external magnetic fields.In addition,in the Heisenberg XX model with external magnetic fields on the two boundary qubits,the two non-boundary qubits will be in the maximal entanglement by increasing the magnetic field at low temperature.

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.
