Abstract

By using principal minor method, which is developed from the Peres-Horodecki criterion for the separability of a quantum state, we derive the necessary and sufficient conditions for the entanglement sudden death of a two-qubit state under amplitude damping and phase damping.

Sudden death of entanglement of two-qubit X-states in thermal reservoirs

Mazhar Ali, G. Alber, A. R. P. Rau

Manipulation of sudden death of entanglement (ESD) of two qubits interacting with statistically uncorrelated thermal reservoirs is investigated. It is shown that for initially prepared X-states of the two qubits a simple (necessary and sufficient) criterion for ESD can be derived with the help of the Peres-Horodecki criterion. This criterion implies that, in contrast to the zero-temperature case, at finite temperature of at least one of the reservoirs all initially prepared two-qubit X-states exhibit ESD. General conditions are derived under which ESD can be hastened, delayed, or averted.

Manipulating entanglement sudden death of two-qubit X-states in zero- and finite-temperature reservoirs

We report a summary of our work on management of entanglement sudden death (ESD) through initial conditions. ESD phases are shown for a generic two-qubit system that undergoes local but unbalanced amplitude damping dissipations.

Decoherence-Induced Sudden Death of Entanglement and Bell Nonlocality

Dong-Gil Im, Yoon-Ho Kim

Decoherence due to the unwanted interaction between a quantum system and environment leads to the degradation of quantum coherence. In particular, for an entangled state, decoherence makes a loss of entanglement and Bell nonlocality known as entanglement sudden death (ESD), and Bell nonlocality sudden death (BNSD). Here, we theoretically investigate the entanglement and Bell nonlocality of a bipartite entangled state under three types of decoherence, amplitude damping, phase damping, and depolarizing. Our result provides the bound of decoherence strength that does not lose the entanglement and Bell nonlocality. In addition, we find two interesting features. One is that the entanglement can survive even though one of the entangled qubits is affected by a large strength of decoherence if the other qubit is affected by a small enough strength of decoherence except for the depolarizing. The second one is that when a specific form of entangled state is under amplitude damping, the Bell nonlocality shows an asymmetric behavior respect to the decoherence strengths on each qubit. Our work provides comprehensive information on ESD and BNSD for the bipartite entangled state which will be useful to implement quantum information processing in the presence of decoherence.

Simultaneous amplitude and phase damping of x−p symmetric Gaussian states and their separability

Xiaoyu Chen

We give the time evolution solution of simultaneous amplitude and phase damping for any continuous variable state. For the simultaneous amplitude and phase damping of two-mode $x\text{\ensuremath{-}}p$ symmetric entangled Gaussian states, two analytical conditions of the separability are given. One is the sufficient condition of separability. The other is the condition of positive partial transpose (PPT) separability where the Peres-Horodecki criterion is applied. Between the two conditions there may exist bound entanglement. The simplest example is the simultaneous amplitude and phase damping of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state. The damped state is non-Gaussian.

Entanglement dynamics of two-qubit systems in different quantum noises

潘长宁, Jian-Shu Fang, 方见树

The entanglement dynamics of two-qubit systems in different quantum noises are investigated by means of the operator-sum representation method. We find that, except for the amplitude damping and phase damping quantum noise, the sudden death of entanglement is always observed in different two-qubit systems with generalized amplitude damping and depolarizing quantum noise.
