Decoherence and Multipartite Entanglement

Andre R. R. Carvalho, Florian Mintert, Andreas Buchleitner

We study the dynamics of multipartite entanglement under the influence of decoherence. A suitable generalization of concurrence reveals distinct scaling of the entanglement decay rate of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger and W states, for various environments.

The decoherence dynamics of multipartite entanglement in a non-Markovian environment

Zhi He, Jian Zou, Bin Shao +1 more

We consider four two-level atoms interacting with independent non-Markovian reservoirs with detuning. We mainly investigate the effects of the detuning and the length of the reservoir correlation time on the decoherence dynamics of multipartite entanglement. We find that the time evolution of the entanglement of atomic and reservoir subsystems is determined by a parameter which is a function of the detuning and the reservoir correlation time. We also find that the decay and revival of the entanglement of the atomic and reservoir subsystems are closely related to the sign of the decay rate. We also show that the cluster state is the most robust to decoherence compared with Dicke, GHZ and W states for this decoherence channel.

Experimental Entanglement Redistribution under Decoherence Channels

G. H. Aguilar, Andrea Valdés-Hernández, L. Davidovich +2 more

When an initially entangled pair of qubits undergoes local decoherence processes, there are a number of ways in which the original entanglement can spread throughout the multipartite system consisting of the two qubits and their environments. Here, we report theoretical and experimental results regarding the dynamics of the distribution of entanglement in this system. The experiment employs an all optical setup in which the qubits are encoded in the polarization degrees of freedom of two photons, and each local decoherence channel is implemented with an interferometer that couples the polarization to the path of each photon, which acts as an environment. We monitor the dynamics and distribution of entanglement and observe the transition from bipartite to multipartite entanglement and back, and show how these transitions are intimately related to the sudden death and sudden birth of entanglement. The multipartite entanglement is further analyzed in terms of three- and four-partite entanglement contributions, and genuine four-qubit entanglement is observed at some points of the evolution.
