Abstract

Abstract The uncertainty principle is one of the most comprehensive and fundamental concepts in quantum theory and it states that it is not possible to simultaneously measure two incompatible observables with high accuracy. In particular, we show that the entropic uncertainty relation that uses quantum memory is one of the most useful entropic uncertainty relations. In this work, we consider a quantum dot system as a solid-state system which is in the thermal regime, and we then probe the quantum correlations and the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty bound in this type of system. Interestingly, our results show that there are some system parameters that can be adjusted to suppress the entropic uncertainty bound and improve quantum correlations.

Quantum correlations and quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation in a quantum dot system

Soroush Haseli

The uncertainty principle is one of the comprehensive and fundamental concept in quantum theory. This principle states that it is not possible to simultaneously measure two incompatible observatories with high accuracy. Uncertainty principle has been formulated in various form. The most famous type of uncertainty relation is expressed based on the standard deviation of observables. In quantum information theory the uncertainty principle can be formulated using Shannon and von Neumann entropy. Entropic uncertainty relation in the presence of quantum memory is one of the most useful entropic uncertainty relations. Due to their importance and scalability, solid state systems have received considerable attention nowadays. In this work we will consider a quantum dot system as a solid state system. We will study the quantum correlation and quantum memory assisted entropic uncertainty in this typ of system. We will show that the temperature in of quantum dot system can affect the quantum correlation and entropic uncertainty bound. It will be observed that the entropic uncertainty bound decreases with decreasing temperature and quantum correlations decreases with increasing the temperature.

Effects of detuning on entropic uncertainty bound and quantum correlations in dissipative environments

Shahram Mehrmanesh, Maryam Hadipour, Soroush Haseli

Abstract One of the fundamental arguments in quantum information theory is the uncertainty principle. According to this principle, two incompatible observables cannot be measured with high precision at the same time. In this work, we will use the entropic uncertainty relation in the presence of quantum memory. Considering a dissipative environment, the effects of the detuning between the transition frequency of a quantum memory and the center frequency of a cavity on entropic uncertainty bound and the quantum correlation between quantum memory and measured particle will be studied. It is shown that by increasing the detuning, quantum correlation is maintained. As a result, due to the inverse relationship between the uncertainty bound and quantum correlations, the measurement results are guessed more accurately.

Probing entropic uncertainty and quantum correlations in a quadruple quantum dot device for two charge qubits

Hao Wang

Abstract We analyze the quantum correlations, the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty (QMA-EUR), and its lower bound in a quadruple quantum dot device for two charge qubits. Herein, we select incompatible Pauli operators σ ^ x and σ ^ z as a pair of observables of interest for the measurement of particle A, and the uncertainty can be predicted from the entanglement of particle A with quantum memory B . We explore the dynamics of quantum discord and QMA-EUR, taking into account the effects of electron temperature, energy offsets, tunneling coupling, and the strength of coupling (i.e., the Coulomb interaction between electrons). Interestingly, our results indicate that there are certain adjustable parameters that can be tuned to suppress the entropy uncertainty bound and enhance quantum correlations.

Quantum correlation and entropic uncertainty in a quantum-dot system

We explore the dynamical behaviors of the measurement uncertainty and quantum correlation for a vertical quantum-dot system in the presence of magnetic field, including electron-electron interaction and Coulomb-blocked systems. Stemming from the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation, the uncertainty of interest is associated with temperature and parameters related to the magnetic field. Interestingly, the temperature has two kinds of influences on the variation of measurement uncertainty with respect to the magnetic-field-related parameters. We also discuss the relation between the lower bound of Berta et al. and the quantum discord. It is found that there is a natural competition between the quantum discord and the entropy min Π i B S Π i B ( ρ A | B ) . Finally, we bring in two improved bounds to offer a more precise limit to the entropic uncertainty.

Exploration of entropic uncertainty bound in a symmetric multi-qubit system under noisy channels

Mohammad Reza Pourkarimi, Saeed Haddadi, Soroush Haseli

Abstract Considering one of the particles as a quantum memory in a bipartite system can remarkably improve the measurement accuracy for two incompatible observables. Herein, we study quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty bound for an arbitrary two-qubit X-state, and then we get a clear formula as the entropic uncertainty bound. In the following, we examine analytically and numerically the dynamics of entropic uncertainty bound in a symmetric multi-qubit system under four types of noisy channels, i.e. phase-flip, amplitude damping, phase-damping, and depolarizing channels. Our results show that the entropic uncertainty bound dynamics is related to the number of particles and especially the noise channel used. Noteworthy, our remarks reveal that under the amplitude damping channel, the entropic uncertainty bound can be suppressed during the time. It turns out that under an amplitude damping channel, these results can be important in practical goals where the minimum uncertainty is required such as quantum computation.
