Abstract

We consider the optimal parameter estimation for a two-level system coupled to multiple bosonic reservoirs. By using quantum Fisher information (QFI), we investigate the effect of the Markovian reservoirs’ number N on QFI in both weak and strong coupling regimes for a two-level system surrounded by N zero-temperature reservoirs of field modes initially in the vacua. The results show that the dynamics of QFI non-monotonically decays to zero with revival oscillations at some time in the weak coupling regime depending on the reservoirs’ parameters. Furthermore, we also present the relations between the QFI flow, the flows of energy and information, and the sign of the decay rate to gain insight into the physical processes characterizing the dynamics.

Modulating quantum Fisher information of qubit in dissipative cavity by coupling strength

Danping Lin, Yu Liu, Hong-Mei Zou

By using the non-Markovian master equation, we investigate the effect of the cavity and the environment on the quantum Fisher information (QFI) of an atom qubit system in a dissipation cavity. We obtain the formulae of QFI for two different initial states and analyze the effect of the atom–cavity coupling and the cavity–reservoir coupling on the QFI. The results show that the dynamic behavior of the QFI is obviously dependent on the initial atomic states, the atom–cavity coupling, and the cavity–reservoir coupling. The stronger the atom–cavity coupling, the quicker the QFI oscillates, and the slower the QFI decreases. In particular, the QFI will tend to be a stable value rather than zero if the atom–cavity coupling is large enough. On the other hand, the smaller the cavity–reservoir coupling, the stronger the non-Markovian effect, and the slower the QFI decays. In other words, choosing the best parameter can improve the accuracy of the parameter estimation. In addition, the physical explanation of the dynamic behavior of the QFI is given by means of the QFI flow.

Relation between quantum probe and entanglement in n-qubit systems within Markovian and non-Markovian environments

Hossein Rangani Jahromi

We address in detail the process of parameter estimation for an n-qubit system dissipating into a cavity in which the qubits are coupled to the single-mode cavity field via coupling constant g which should be estimated. In addition, the cavity field interacts with an external field considered as a set of continuum harmonic oscillators. We analyse the behaviour of the quantum Fisher information (QFI) for both weak and strong coupling regimes. In particular, we show that in strong coupling regime, the memory effects are dominant, leading to an oscillatory variation in the dynamics of the QFI and consequently information flowing from the environment to the quantum system. We show that when the number of the qubits or the coupling strength rises, the oscillations, signs of non-Markovian evolution of the QFI, increase. This indicates that in the strong-coupling regime, increasing the size of the system or the coupling strength remarkably enhances the reversed flow of information. Moreover, we find that it is possible to retard the QFI loss during the time evolution and therefore enhance the estimation of the parameter using a cavity with a larger decay rate factor. Furthermore, analysing the dynamics of the QFI and negativity of the probe state, we reveal a close relationship between the entanglement of probes and their capability for estimating the parameter. It is shown that in order to perform a better estimation of the parameter, we should avoid measuring when the entanglement between the probes is maximized.

Non-Markovianity of a two-level system transversally coupled to multiple bosonic reservoirs

Zhong‐Xiao Man, Nguyen Ba An, Yun‐Jie Xia

Dynamics of a two-level open system transversally coupled to a single zero-temperature bosonic reservoir may be Markovian or non-Markovian, depending on whether the system-reservoir coupling is weak or strong. In this paper, we show that when the system is simultaneously coupled to $N$ reservoirs its dynamics is always non-Markovian, provided that $N\ensuremath{\ge}{N}_{\mathrm{cr}},$ with ${N}_{\mathrm{cr}}$ a critical number depending on the reservoirs' parameters. Quantitatively, the non-Markovianity $\mathcal{N}$ is shown proportional to the number of contributed reservoirs. We explain our results in terms of the pseudomode theory, finding out that when $N\ensuremath{\ge}{N}_{\mathrm{cr}}$ the pseudomodes of all the reservoirs can always partially return information back to the system, no matter how strong the couplings between the system and each individual reservoir.

Dynamical Change of Quantum Fisher Information of Cavity-Reservoir Systems*

Jiang Huang, Qin Xie

Abstract We study the quantum Fisher information (QFI) dynamics of the phase parameter in the enlarged cavity-reservoir systems at zero temperature under two situations of large N limit and non-Markovian environment, respectively. We find an important relation that the total quantities of QFI of the cavity and reservoir are equal to unit during the dynamical evolution. The lost QFI of the cavity transfers to its corresponding reservoir with the same quantities simultaneously. Moreover, we also find that the detuning parameter and non-Markovian effect are two significant factors to affect the preservation of QFI.

Dynamics of quantum Fisher information from a time-local non-Markovian master equation with decoherence rates and operators depending on the estimated parameter

Mihaela Vatasescu

We analyze the dynamics of the quantum Fisher information (QFI) in the case of a two-dimensional open quantum system obeying a time-local non-Markovian master equation in the canonical form, characterized by canonical decoherence rates and operators that depend on the parameter to be estimated. This last condition brings a framework in which the information about the parameter is structurally encoded not only in the open system, but also in the system-environment interaction or/and correlations, and in some environment properties. We derive analytical formulas for the decompositions of the QFI flow and of the purity dynamics in terms associated to the canonical decoherence rates. In contrast to the results presented in X.-M. Lu et al. [Phys. Rev. A 82, 042103 (2010)], we show that, in this extended framework, the QFI flow contains not only the subflows corresponding to the decoherence rates, but also supplementary terms which originate in the state dependence on the estimated parameter; moreover, the signs of the QFI subflows associated to the decoherence rates are not correlated to the signs of the rates. We show that a pertinent connection between the QFI flow and non-Markovianity can be realized using the canonical measures defined from the negative canonical decoherence rates. We employ this theoretical framework to explore the QFI flow and its subflows in two cases of quantum evolutions directed by master equations with decoherence rates or/and operators depending on the estimated parameter: (i) the Markovian nonunital time evolution of a qubit under the generalized amplitude damping channel; (ii) the non-Markovian time evolution of a two-dimensional electronic subsystem entangled with its vibrational environment in a molecule.
