Relation between initial conditions and entanglement sudden death for two-qubit extended Werner-like states

Baiyuan Yang, Mao-Fa Fang, Jiang Huang

Abstract

In this paper, the dynamical behavior of entanglement of an uncoupled two-qubit system, which interacts with independent identical amplitude damping environments and is initially prepared in the extended Werner-like (EWL) states, is investigated. The results show that whether entanglement sudden death (ESD) of an EWL state will occur or not depends on initial purity and concurrence. The boundaries between ESD states and ESD-free states for two kinds of EWL states are found to be different. Furthermore, some regions are shown where ESD states can be transformed into ESD-free states by local unitary operations.

Entanglement Dynamics of Two-Qubit System in Different Types of Noisy Channels

Shan Chuan-Jia, Jibing Liu, Cheng Wei-Wen +3 more

In this paper, we study entanglement dynamics of a two-qubit extended Werner-like state locally interacting with independent noisy channels, i.e., amplitude damping, phase damping, and depolarizing channels. We show that the purity of initial entangled state has direct impacts on the entanglement robustness in each noisy channel. That is, if the initial entangled state is prepared in mixed instead of pure form, the state may exhibit entanglement sudden death (ESD) and/or be decreased for the critical probability at which the entanglement disappear.

Entanglement for Two-Qubit Extended Werner-Like States: Effect of Non-Markovian Environments

Shan Chuan-Jia, Ji-Bing Liu, Tao Chen +4 more

We investigate the sudden birth and sudden death of entanglement of two qubits interacting with un-correlated structured reservoirs. The system is initially prepared in two-qubit extended Werner-like state. We work out the dependence of the entanglement dynamics on both non-Markovian environments and the purity of initial state, and show that non-Markovian environments and the purity can control the time of the two-qubit entanglement sudden death and the reservoirs' entanglement sudden birth. Furthermore, under the conditions of different purity and initial entanglement, the revival of qubits' entanglement can manifest before, simultaneously or even after the disentanglement of their corresponding reservoirs.

Sudden birth versus sudden death of entanglement for the extended Werner-like state in a dissipative environment

Shan Chuan-Jia, Tao Chen, Ji-Bing Liu +4 more

In this paper, we investigate the dynamical behaviour of entanglement in terms of concurrence in a bipartite system subjected to an external magnetic field under the action of dissipative environments in the extended Werner-like initial state. The interesting phenomenon of entanglement sudden death as well as sudden birth appears during the evolution process. We analyse in detail the effect of the purity of the initial entangled state of two qubits via Heisenberg XY interaction on the apparition time of entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth. Furthermore, the conditions on the conversion of entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth can be generalized when the initial entangled state is not pure. In particular, a critical purity of the initial mixed entangled state exists, above which entanglement sudden birth vanishes while entanglement sudden death appears. It is also noticed that stable entanglement, which is independent of different initial states of the qubits (pure or mixed state), occurs even in the presence of decoherence. These results arising from the combination of the extended Werner-like initial state and dissipative environments suggest an approach to control and enhance the entanglement even after purity induced sudden birth, death and revival.

The entanglement dynamics of the bipartite quantum system: toward entanglement sudden death

Wei Cui, Zairong Xi, Yu Pan

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of the bipartite quantum system between two qubits with the dissipative environment. We begin with the standard Markovian master equation in the Lindblad form and the initial state which is prepared in the extended Werner-like state: ρ Φ AB (0). We examine the conditions for entanglement sudden death (ESD) and calculate the corresponding ESD time by the Wootters concurrence. We observe that ESD is determined by the parameters such as the mean occupation number of the environment N , amount of initial entanglement α and the purity r . For N = 0, we get the analytical expressions of both ESD condition and ESD time. For N > 0 we give a theoretical analysis that ESD always occurs, and simulate the concurrence as a function of γ 0 t and one of the parameters N , α and r .

Entanglement sudden death induced by the Dzialoshinskii–Moriya interaction

Zeng Hong-Fang, Shao Bin, Linguang Yang +2 more

In this paper, we study the entanglement dynamics of two-spin Heisenberg XYZ model with the Dzialoshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction. The system is initially prepared in the Werner state. The effects of purity of the initial state and DM coupling parameter on the evolution of entanglement are investigated. The necessary and sufficient condition for the appearance of the entanglement sudden death (ESD) phenomenon has been deduced. The result shows that the ESD always occurs if the initial state is sufficiently impure for the given coupling parameter or the DM interaction is sufficiently strong for the given initial state. Moreover, the critical values of them are calculated.

Schemes to avoid entanglement sudden death of decohering two qubit system

C. V. Namitha, S. V. M. Satyanarayana

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of two interacting qubits in a common vacuum environment. The inevitable environment interaction leads to entanglement sudden death (ESD) in a two qubit entangled state system. The entanglement dynamics can be modified by the use of local unitary operations (quantum gates), applied on the system during its evolution. We show that these operations not only delays or avoids the ESD but also advances the entanglement revival with high concurrence value depending on the time of operation. We have analytically found out different time windows for switching with different quantum gates so that the ESD can be completely avoided in the subsequent evolution of the system. Our result offers practical applications in the field of quantum information processing where the entanglement is a necessary resource.
