Increasing Quantum Correlations Based on Measurement-Induced Disturbance via a Swapping Procedure with Two-Qubit Mixed States

Abstract

In this paper, quantum correlation (QC) swapping for certain separable two-qubit mixed states is treated. A QC quantifier, measurement-induced disturbance (MID) (Luo in Phys Rev A 77:022301, 2008), is employed to characterize and quantify QCs in the relevant states. Properties of all QCs in the swapping process are revealed. Particularly, it is found that MID can be increased through QC swapping for certain separable two-qubit mixed states.

Quantum correlation swapping between Werner and separable states

Chuanmei Xie, Zhanjun Zhang, Jianlan Chen +1 more

Abstract In this paper we study quantum correlation (QC) swapping between two different kinds of quantum-correlated states. To be concrete, one is the famous Werner state while another is a kind of separable state. We employ measurement-induced disturbance (Luo 2008 Phys. Rev. A 77 02230) as the quantifier to characterize and quantify QC. We work out QCs in all the concerned states and concretely analyze their behaviors and properties such monotony features and thresholds. We find that a long-distance shared QC can be generated from two short-distance ones via intermediate measure. Moreover, the amount of the long-distance shared QC cannot reach that in the Werner state but that in the separable state.

Quantum Correlation Swapping between Two Werner States Undergoing Local and Nonlocal Unitary Operations

Chuanmei Xie, Zhanjun Zhang, Jianlan Chen +1 more

In this paper, quantum correlation (QC) swapping between two Werner-like states, which are transformed from Werner states undergoing local and nonlocal unitary operations, are studied. Bell states measures are performed in the middle node to realize the QC swapping and correspondingly final correlated sates are obtained. Two different QC quantifiers, i.e., measurement-induced disturbance (MID) and ameliorated MID, are employed to characterize and quantify all the concerned QCs in the swapping process. All QCs in the concerned states are evaluated analytically and numerically. Correspondingly, their characteristics and properties are exposed in detail. It is exposed that, through the QC swapping process, one can obtain the long-distance QC indeed. Moreover, the similarities of monotony features of MID and AMID between the initial states and final states are exposed and analyzed.

Quantum correlation swapping between qutrit states

Chuanmei Xie, Zhanjun Zhang, Jianlan Chen +2 more

Abstract In this study, the qubit quantum correlation swapping (QCS) is generalized to the qutrit case. To be concrete, two qutrit Werner states are taken as the research objects and the complete set of qutrit Bell states are utilized as the intermediate two-qutrit measure to implement QCS. The popular quantum correlation measure, i.e. quantum discord (Ollivier and Zurek 2001 Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 017901), is employed to characterize and quantify quantum correlations in the concerned states. The properties of the variance and threshold of quantum correlations occurring in the swapping process are revealed, and two distinct QCS phenomena are thus observed. Moreover, it is found that the maximal amount of quantum correlations in the final state can not exceed the minimal one of these in the initial states.

Quantum Correlations in a Family of Bipartite Qubit-Qutrit Separable States

Biao‐Liang Ye, Yimin Liu, Xiansong Liu +1 more

Quantum correlations in a family of bipartite separable qubit-qutrit quantum-classical correlated states are investigated by using two popular measures, i.e., the original quantum discord (OQD) method by Ollivier and Zurek [ Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 (2001) 017901 ] and the measurement-induced disturbance (MID) method by Luo [ Phys. Rev. A 77 (2008) 022301 ]. It is found that both of them are functions of a parameter partially characterizing the concerned states, however, quantum correlations evaluated via the convenient MID method are somewhat overestimated.

Quantum Correlations in a Family of Two-Qubit Separable States

Biao‐Liang Ye, Yi-Min Liu, Chunjie Xu +2 more

Quantum correlations in a family of two-qubit separable classical-quantum correlated states are intensively studied with four different approaches, namely, quantum discord [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 (2002) 017901], measurement-induced disturbance (MID) [ Phys. Rev. A 77 (2008) 022301 ], ameliorated MID [ J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44 (2011) 352002 ] and quantum dissonance [ Phys. Rev. Lett. 104 (2010) 080501 ]. Quantum correlations captured with different approaches are compared and discussed so that their three distinct features are exposed.

Faithful nonclassicality indicators and extremal quantum correlations in two-qubit states

Davide Girolami, Mauro Paternostro, Gerardo Adesso

The state disturbance induced by locally measuring a quantum system yields a signature of nonclassical correlations beyond entanglement. Here, we present a detailed study of such correlations for two-qubit mixed states. To overcome the asymmetry of quantum discord and the unfaithfulness of measurement-induced disturbance (severely overestimating quantum correlations), we propose an ameliorated measurement-induced disturbance as nonclassicality indicator, optimized over joint local measurements, and we derive its closed expression for relevant two-qubit states. We study its analytical relation with discord, and characterize the maximally quantum-correlated mixed states, that simultaneously extremize both quantifiers at given von Neumann entropy: among all two-qubit states, these states possess the most robust quantum correlations against noise.
