Abstract

Geometric quantum discord (GQD) and Berry phase between two charge qubits coupled by a quantum transmission line are investigated. We show how GQDs evolve and investigate their dependencies on the parameters of the system. We also calculate the energy and the Berry phase and compare them with GQD, finding that there are close connections between them.

Dynamics of quantum discord and geometric quantum discord in multiqubit interacting system

Xiao-Di 晓迪 Cheng 程, Ya‐Jun Zheng, Meng-Jie 梦杰 Ran 冉 +1 more

Abstract Using quantum discord (QD) and geometric quantum discord (GQD), quantum correlation dynamics is investigated for two coupled qubits within a multiqubit interacting system in the zero-temperature bosonic reservoir, under both weak and strong qubit-reservoir coupling regimes. The multiqubit system is connected with either a common bosonic reservoir (CBR) or multiple independent bosonic reservoirs (IBRs). In the CBR case, our findings indicate that both QD and GQD can be strengthened by increasing the number of qubits in the multiqubit system. Furthermore, we study the steady state QD and GQD in the strong coupling regime, and find that the stable value in the long-time limit is determined exclusively by the number of qubits. The evolution period of QD and GQD gets longer as the dipole–dipole interaction (DDI) strength increases, which helps prolong the correlation time and thus preserves the quantum correlation under the weak coupling regime. Further analysis reveals notable differences between the CBR and IBRs scenarios. In the IBRs case, the decay of QD and GQD becomes slower compared to the CBR case, with both measures tending to zero at a reduced rate. Moreover, GQD consistently exhibits lower values than QD in both scenarios. These findings provide valuable insights into the selection of appropriate correlation measurement techniques for quantifying quantum correlations.

Quantum discord in the system of atoms interacting with coupled cavities

Rui-Qi Li, LU Dao-ming

The geometrical quantum discord (GQD) is an effective measure of quantum correlation in quantum systems. We have studied GQD dynamics of the system comprising two two-level atoms resonantly interacting with two coupled cavities. GQD between atoms and that between cavities are investigated. The influences of coupling constant between cavities and initial entanglement between atoms on GQD are discussed. Results obtained using a numerical method show that GQD between atoms is strengthened, and GQD between cavities is weakened with increasing initial entanglement between atoms. On the other hand, the evolution regularity of GQD between atoms and that between cavities are all strengthened with increasing coupling constant between cavities.

Non-classical correlations in the general state of two SC-qubit with a phase damping: non-local correlation and geometric discord

Abdel‐Baset A. Mohamed, H. A. Hessian

A system consists of two charged qubits are initially prepared in a maximum entangled Bell state and having no mutual interaction, where each qubit interacts independently with a superconducting transmission line resonator. An analytical solution of the time evolution of the final state of the system with the effect of a phase decoherence is found. In previous works, quantum correlations are only investigated in X-state for the models which are as our model. In this work, the analytical formulas of the geometric quantum discord (GQD) and measurement-induced non-locality (MIN) are introduced for a general state of two-qubit (non-X-state). Quantum correlations are studied via GQD and MIN with quantum entanglement (QE). It is found that a sudden disappearance only occurs for QE, while MIN and GQD still exist. Due to the increase in the amplitude of the coherent states, the intervals of the sudden disappearance of QE increase and MIN and GQD decrease. It is interesting to note that initial correlations can be lost and they reach their stationary correlations with the increase in the intrinsic decoherence. The stationary correlation of MIN can be destroyed, it reach zero value, when both the decoherence effect and detuning are present simultaneously. By starting with different types of Bell-like states, the stationary correlations as well as the time intervals of sudden disappearance have notable changes. It is possible to control the quantum correlations with certain parameter sets.

Geometric discord of any arbitrary dimensional bipartite system and its application in quantum key distribution

Rashi Jain, Satyabrata Adhikari

Abstract Entangled quantum states are regarded as a key resource in quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols. However, quantum correlations, other than entanglement can also play a significant role in the QKD protocols. In this work, we will focus on one such measure of quantum correlation, known as geometric quantum discord (GQD). Firstly, we derive an analytical expression of GQD for two-qutrit quantum systems and further generalize it for d 1 ⨂ d 2 dimensional systems. Next, we apply the concept of GQD in studying QKD. In particular, if the shared resource state is an entangled state constructed with the linear combination of the tensor product of the Bell pair and the state σ i ’s, i = 0, 1, 2, 3, then we have shown that under some assumption on σ i ’s, the lower bound for a distillable secret key rate K D can be expressed in terms of GQD of σ 0 + σ 1 2 and σ 2 + σ 3 2 . Thus, the distillable key rate depends upon the GQD of σ 0 + σ 1 2 and σ 2 + σ 3 2 , when the communicating parties uses private states for generating a secret key in presence of an eavesdropper. Further, for a certain range of GQD of σ 0 + σ 1 2 and σ 2 + σ 3 2 <

Geometric quantum discords of interacting qubits in thermal reservoir

Zhao Li, Xiaomin Wang, Wu Zhou +1 more

We examined decay dynamics of various geometric quantum discords (GQDs) for two interacting qubits described by the Heisenberg XY model and further coupled independently to their respective thermal reservoirs. Compared to the case of noninteracting qubits, our results showed that decay rates of the GQDs can be retarded apparently by properly choosing system parameters of the interaction term. In the long-time limit, the asymptotic values of the GQDs are enhanced evidently by tuning anisotropy of the model and strength of the transverse magnetic field. We further illuminated the relations between different GQDs on characterizing quantum correlations, and observed multiple sudden change behaviors of their dynamics.
