Threshold effect and entanglement enhancement through local squeezing of initial separable states in continuous-variable systems

Abstract

We investigate the dynamical enhancement of entanglement by means of local squeezing of initial separable Gaussian states in two coupled harmonic oscillator systems. Interestingly, the maximum generation of entanglement between the two modes is not a monotonically increasing function of the squeezing parameter. Instead, there exists a critical degree of squeezing r c for the maximum entanglement to be enhanced. For the coupled oscillator systems considered, we have derived the analytical expressions of r c .

Environment-assisted creation and enhancement of two-mode entanglement in a joint decoherent model

Shao-Hua Xiang, Bin Shao, Kehui Song

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of two modes in a common squeezed thermal environment by means of the characteristic function method and the logarithmic negativity. When the two modes are prepared initially in separable squeezed states, we find that the external environment can not only induce but also enhance the two-mode entanglement if their initial squeezing parameters are suitably chosen. When the two modes are initially in a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, we find that whether the initial entanglement is degraded or increased depends strongly on the difference between the squeezing parameters of the considered bath and of a quantum state. Finally, we give a condition of all two-mode entangled Gaussian states to be the decoherence-free state in a given squeezed bath.

The dynamic of quantum entanglement of two dimensional harmonic oscillator in non-commutative space

Azangue Koumetio Armel, Yiande Deuto Germain, Alain Giresse Tene +1 more

Abstract In the present paper, we study the influence of non-commutativity on entanglement in a system of two oscillators-modes in interaction with its environment. The considered system is a two-dimensional harmonic oscillator in non-commuting spatial coordinates coupled to its environment. The dynamics of the covariance matrix, the separability criteria for two Gaussian states in non-commutative space coordinates, and the logarithmic negativity are used to evaluate the quantum entanglement in the system, which is compared to the commutative space coordinates case. The result is applied for two initially entangled states, namely the squeezed vacuum and squeezed thermal states. It can be observed that the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death appears more early in the system for the case of squeezed vacuum state than in the case of squeezed thermal state. Thereafter, it is also observed that non-commutativity effects lead to an increasing of entanglement of initially entangled quantum states, and reduce the separability in the open quantum system. It turns out that a separable state in the usual commutative quantum mechanics might be entangled in non-commutative extension.

Enhancement of Gravitationally Induced Entanglement via Quantum Squeezing

Sijo K. Joseph

Gravitational generation of quantum entanglement on squeezed coherent states in a system of two quantum mechanical particles is explored. The particles are modeled as harmonic oscillators, and their gravitational interaction is described by an interaction potential. Dynamics of the gravi- tationally induced entanglement is explored using the linear entropy of entanglement. An analytical expression for the linear entropy is obtained via Gaussian integration and covariance method. In the short-time weakly coupled regime, it is observed that the entanglement is proportional to the square of the time interval, square of the interaction strength, and proportional to the squeezing parameters of the modes. These results provide insights into the effects of quantum squeezing on entanglement generation in systems with gravitational interactions. Analytically and numerically it is shown that momentum squeezing can enhance gravitationally induced quantum entanglement.

Dynamical Relation between Quantum Squeezing and Entanglement in Coupled Harmonic Oscillator System

Lock Yue Chew, Ning Ning Chung

In this paper, we investigate into the numerical and analytical relationship between the dynamically generated quadrature squeezing and entanglement within a coupled harmonic oscillator system. The dynamical relation between these two quantum features is observed to vary monotically, such that an enhancement in entanglement is attained at a fixed squeezing for a larger coupling constant. Surprisingly, the maximum attainable values of these two quantum entities are found to consistently equal to the squeezing and entanglement of the system ground state. In addition, we demonstrate that the inclusion of a small anharmonic perturbation has the effect of modifying the squeezing versus entanglement relation into a nonunique form and also extending the maximum squeezing to a value beyond the system ground state.

Exact dynamics and squeezing in two harmonic modes coupled through angular momentum

N. Canosa, Swapan Mandal, R. Rossignoli

Abstract We investigate the exact dynamics of a system of two independent harmonic oscillators coupled through their angular momentum. The exact analytic solution of the equations of motion for the field operators is derived, and the conditions for dynamical stability are obtained. As for the application, we examine the emergence of squeezing and mode entanglement for an arbitrary separable coherent initial state. It is shown that close to instability, the system develops considerable entanglement, which is accompanied with simultaneous squeezing in the coordinate of one oscillator and the momentum of the other oscillator. In contrast, for weak coupling away from instability, the generated entanglement is small, with weak alternating squeezing in the coordinate and momentum of each oscillator. Approximate expressions describing these regimes are also provided.

Gravitationally Induced Entanglement Between Particles in Harmonic Traps: Limits for Gaussian States

Julia Tokarska, Andrzej Dragan

Gravitationally induced entanglement has been proposed as a probe of the quantum nature of gravity. This work analyzes a system of two particles in harmonic traps interacting only through gravity, considering thermal and two-mode squeezed initial states. For thermal states, a maximum temperature is identified above which entanglement cannot be generated, and for fixed system parameters an optimal trap frequency that maximizes the logarithmic negativity is found. Squeezing the initial state does not further enhance the entanglement generation, but increases the temperature range over which it can be observed. Extending the analysis to general Gaussian states, an upper bound on the achievable entanglement is derived and shown to be saturated, for example, by ground and squeezed states. The results show that the amount of entanglement generated in this setup is extremely small, highlighting the experimental challenges of observing gravitationally induced quantum effects.
