Restoration of Quantum Entanglement Via Environment-Assisted Error Correction

Abstract

In this talk, I will present an explicit scheme to fully recover a multiple-qubit state subject to a phase damping noise. We establish the theoretical framework and the operational procedure to restore an unknown initial quantum state for an N-qubit model interacting with either individual baths or a common bath. We give an explicit construction of the random unitary (RU) Kraus decomposition for an N-qubit model interacting with a common bath. We also demonstrate how to use only one unitary reversal operation to restore an arbitrary state with phase damping noise. In principle, the initial state can always be recovered with a success probability of 1. Interestingly, we found that non-RU decomposition can also be used to restore some particular entangled states. This may open a new path to restore a quantum state beyond the standard RU scheme.

Restoration of a quantum state in a dephasing channel via environment-assisted error correction

Xinyu Zhao, Samuel R. Hedemann, Ting Yu

In this paper, we propose an environment-assisted error correction scheme to fully recover a multiple-qubit state subject to a phase damping noise. We establish the theoretical framework and the operational procedure to restore an unknown initial quantum state for an $N$-qubit model interacting with either individual baths or a common bath. We give an explicit construction of the random unitary (RU) Kraus decomposition for an $N$-qubit model interacting with a common bath. We also demonstrate how to use only one unitary reversal operation to restore an arbitrary state with phase damping noise. In principle, the initial state can always be recovered with a success probability of 1. Interestingly, we found that non-RU decomposition can also be used to restore some particular entangled states. This may open a new path to restore a quantum entangled state beyond the standard RU scheme.

Environment-assisted error correction of single-qubit phase damping

Benjamin Trendelkamp-Schroer, Julius Helm, Walter T. Strunz

Open quantum system dynamics of random unitary type may in principle be fully undone. Closely following the scheme of environment-assisted error correction proposed by Gregoratti and Werner [J. Mod. Opt. 50, 915 (2003)], we explicitly carry out all steps needed to invert a phase-damping error on a single qubit. Furthermore, we extend the scheme to a mixed-state environment. Surprisingly, we find cases for which the uncorrected state is closer to the desired state than any of the corrected ones.

Robust Quantum Mixed State Recovery from Amplitude Damping

Saeideh Shahrokh Esfahani

Several instructions need to be considered in order to transfer classical error correction techniques to the quantum regime. The quantum error correction field has been developed to face these issues. One of the common source of errors in quantum systems is environment decoherence. Due to interaction with the environment, the quantum states of a system entangle with the environment and are subject to decoherence. In this thesis, we mainly focused on the amplitude damping which is one of the most important models of decoherence processes. We showed that general two-qubit mixed states undergoing an amplitude damping, can be almost completely restored using a reversal procedure. This reversal procedure through CNOT and Hadamard gates could also protect the entanglement of two-qubit mixed states from general amplitude damping. Concurrence and fidelity are two measurements used in order to examine how our proposed scheme performs. Furthermore, to give generality to our scheme, we proposed a robust recovery scheme to protect the quantum states when the decay parameters or the input quantum states are not completely known.

Environment-assisted quantum state restoration via weak measurements

Kelvin C. P. Wang, Xinyu Zhao, Ting Yu

In this paper, a quantum state restoration scheme is proposed based on the environment-assisted error correction (EAEC) scheme. By introducing a weak measurement reversal (WMR) operation, we will show how to recover an initial state of a quantum open system without invoking random unitary decompositions which are known to be absent in many important physical systems. We illustrate our scheme and compare it with a scheme purely based on the WMR operation in the case of a dissipative channel. In the proposed scheme, the successful probability for recovering an unknown initial state can be significantly improved when the information obtained from an environment measurement is taken into account. Moreover, we show that the applicable range of our proposed scheme is wider than the EAEC scheme. Finally, the optimization of the successful probability for possible Kraus decompositions is discussed.

Classical simulation of arbitrary quantum noise

Seyyed M. H. Halataei

I present an explicit classical simulation of arbitrary quantum noise for quantum models in which one qubit interacts with a quantum bath. The classical model simulates the interaction of the bath and the qubit by random unitary evolutions. I show that any arbitrary quantum dynamics, including quantum dissipation, recurrence, and dephasing, can be simulated classically when one allows the unitary operators in the classical model to depend on the initial state of the system and bath. For initial mixed states of the system and nonproduct states of the system and bath, I demonstrate that random unitary expansion is still possible, in terms of a set of pure states.

Environment-assisted qubit–qutrit entanglement restoration via weak measurement reversal

Yang Leng

Abstract Based on the quantum technique of environment-assisted measurement and reversal (EMR), we propose a scheme to restore the entanglement from amplitude damping decoherence. In particular, we examine two typical families of initially entangled qubit–qutrit states and derive the exact analytical expressions of the optimal final restoration, showing explicitly that the EMR does indeed can recovery qubit–qutrit entanglement. This sheds new light on the protection of high-dimensional quantum entanglement in complex quantum environment.
