A squeezed generalized amplitude damping (SGAD) channel is a quantum channel that models a general noise process incorporating the effects of bath squeezing, dissipation, and decoherence. In this paper, we analyze the dynamics of quantum entanglement and discord in the SGAD channel with memory. By obtaining a stochastic map defining this noisy quantum channel, we derive the concurrence and discord of Werner-like mixed states sent by successive uses of the channel. It is shown that these quantum correlations can be preserved or even generated depending on the initial channel input states, channel parameters, and the degree of channel memory. In particular, the squeezing effect does not contribute to the dynamics of quantum correlation for singlet-like states under correlated noise.

Abstract The inherent association between real quantum systems and their surrounding environment invariably results in decoherence, leading to the loss of entanglement. This diminution in entanglement coincides with a decline in the fidelity of transmitted information using the entangled quantum resource. This study scrutinizes the impact of the squeezed generalized amplitude damping (SGAD) channel on quantum Fisher information (QFI) parameters. The SGAD channel model, a versatile framework, is also employed to simulate other dissipative channels, including amplitude damping (AD) and generalized amplitude damping (GAD). Kraus operators facilitate the modeling of noisy channels. The results reveal that, within the SGAD channel, the QFI remains impervious to the squeezing variables (r and Φ Φ ). In the GAD channel, FθGAD F θ GAD undergoes enhancement to a constant value with an upswing in temperature (T), while the ϕ ϕ parameter in the GAD channel, FϕGAD F ϕ GAD , akin to the SGAD channel, surges around T = 2 before complete loss ensues. Concerning the AD channel, the θ θ component of the QFI initially experiences decoherence with an augmentation in the AD noise parameter ( λ λ ). Subsequently, it is restored to its initial value with a further escalation in λ λ . Conversely, the ϕ ϕ component of the QFI in the AD channel experiences decoherence with an elevation in the AD noise parameter ( λ λ ).
Nonlocal quantum correlations, such as quantum entanglement, quantum steering, and Bell nonlocality, are crucial resources for quantum information tasks. How to protect these quantum resources from decoherence is one of the most urgent problems to be solved. Here, we investigate the evolution of these correlations in the correlated squeezed generalized amplitude damping (SGAD) channel and propose a scheme to protect them with weak measurement (WM) and quantum measurement reversal (QMR). Compared with the results of the uncorrelated SGAD channel, we find that when [Formula: see text], correlation and squeezing effects can prolong the survival time of quantum entanglement, Bell nonlocality, and quantum steering by about 152 times, 207 times, and 10 times, respectively. In addition, local WM and QMR can effectively recover the disappeared nonlocal quantum correlations either in uncorrelated or completely correlated SGAD channels. Moreover, we find that these initial nonlocal quantum correlations could be drastically amplified under the correlated channel. And the steering direction can be flexibly manipulated either by changing the channel parameters or the strength of WM and QMR. These results not only make a step forward in suppressing decoherence and enhancing quantum correlation in noise channels, but also help to develop relevant practical applications.
We study genuine entanglement among three qubits undergoing a noisy process that includes dissipation, squeezing, and decoherence. We obtain a general solution and analyze the asymptotic quantum states. We find that most of these asymptotic states can be genuinely entangled depending upon the parameters of the channel, memory parameter, and the parameters of the initial states. We study Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states and W states, mixed with white noise, and determine the conditions for them to be genuinely entangled at infinity. We find that for these mixtures, it is possible to start with a bi-separable state (with a specific mixture of white noise) and end with genuine entangled states. However, the memory parameter μ must be very high. We find that in contrast to the two-qubit case, none of the three-qubit asymptotic states for n → ∞ are genuinely entangled.
We study the dynamics of quantum dissension for three qubit states in various dissipative channels such as amplitude damping, dephasing and depolarizing. Our study is solely based on Markovian environments where quantum channels are without memory and each qubit is coupled to its own environment. We start with mixed GHZ, mixed W, mixture of separable states, a mixed biseparable state, as the initial states and mostly observe that the decay of quantum dissension is asymptotic in contrast to sudden death of quantum entanglement in similar environments. This is a clear indication of the fact that quantum correlation in general is more robust against the effect of noise. However, for a given class of initial mixed states we find a temporary leap in quantum dissension for a certain interval of time. More precisely, we observe the revival of quantum correlation to happen for certain time period. This signifies that the measure of quantum correlation such as quantum discord, quantum dissension, defined from the information theoretic perspective is different from the correlation defined from the entanglement-separability paradigm and can increase under the effect of the local noise. We also study the effects of these channels on the monogamy score of each of these initial states. Interestingly, we find that for certain class of states and channels, there is change from negative values to positive values of the monogamy score with classical randomness as well as with time. This gives us an important insight in obtaining states which are freely sharable (polygamous state) from the states which are not freely sharable (monogamous). This is indeed a remarkable feature, as we can create monogamous states from polygamous states Monogamous states are considered to have more signatures of quantum ness and can be used for security purpose.
We investigate the average steered coherence (ASC) and maximal steered coherence (MSC) of two qubits in a squeezed generalized amplitude damping channel modeled by a squeezed thermal bath with dissipation and memory. By considering the input Bell states, it is shown that while the dissipation and thermal effects induce decay of the ASC and MSC in the output states, the squeezing effect suppresses their decay in the strong (full) squeezing region for the input even-parity (odd-parity) Bell states. Besides, the memory effect due to correlated actions of the channel can also be exploited for suppressing decay of the ASC and MSC.
We investigate properties of toric codes under realistic damping error channels, which include squeezing, thermal and non-Markovian effects. First, we map the decohered toric code under the generalized amplitude-damping (GAD) and the squeezed generalized amplitude-damping (SGAD) channels to the statistical-mechanical models using the double Hilbert-space formalism. Second, we map the action of the GAD and SGAD channels on the toric code to stochastic Pauli-type errors via Pauli twirling, yielding asymmetric depolarizing channels, and obtain the logical failure probabilities as a function of temperature and squeezing. In both cases, we relate the channel parameters of the GAD and SGAD channels to the spin-coupling constants of the statistical-mechanical model.
