Maximal and total skew information for a two-qubit system using nonlinear interaction models
Hong-Gui Sun, Wanfang Liu, Chunjie Li
Abstract
Maximal and total skew information is studied. For symmetric pure states of two-qubit, they are closely related to the linear entropy, the concurrence, and the spin squeezing parameter. For a two-qubit system implemented in three nonlinear interaction models with an external field, we give the exact state vectors and the expectation value 〈Sz〉 at any time t. Based on 〈Sz〉2, we give the maximal and the total skew information and a condition in which the maximal and the total skew information can reach 1 and 2, respectively.
