Abstract The effects of classical correlations and associated decoherence on the fidelity dynamics of two qubits initially prepared in maximally entangled (ME) and coherent states are examined. In both the Markovian and non-Markovian regimes, the dynamics of fidelity in a correlated dephasing channel is probed. We show that fidelity decreases over time but does not disappear completely, implying that the output state does not become quite dissimilar from the input state under the effects of dephasing correlated channel. The ME state, in comparison, is more tolerant of the dephasing effects of the correlated channel than that of the maximally coherent state. Fidelity of the quantum states is significantly influenced by the degree of classical correlations between successive actions of the channel on the two qubits. As the amount of classical correlations in the implementation of the channel increases, the fidelity of the quantum states can be noticeably enhanced.

Abstract We investigate how the classical correlations between successive actions of a colored dephasing channel affect the decoherence of a two-qubit system. Our calculation shows that the l 1 norm of coherence, the relative entropy of coherence, and the robustness of coherence can be noticeably enhanced by increasing the strength of classical correlations in the whole time interval during which the two qubits pass through the channel, while the coherence weight is enhanced only when exceeds a critical value. Moreover, in the infinite-time limit, all the coherence measures reach their steady values which are determined only by .
Decoherence of quantum information of qubits is investigated under the influence of the non-Markovian quantum channel, where the correlation time of reservoir variables takes a finite value. Degradation of purity, distinguishability and entanglement of qubit states are evaluated. It is found that the non-Markov effect makes the coherence time of quantum information longer than that obtained for the Markovian quantum channel. Furthermore, the quantum teleportation and quantum dense coding of qubits are considered under the influence of non-Markov channels. The fidelity between teleported and original states and the Holevo capacity are obtained.
Abstract We study the quantumness of gravitational cat states in correlated dephasing channels. Our focus is on exploring how classical correlations between successive actions of a dephasing channel influence the decoherence of two gravitational cats (two qubits) at a thermal regime. The results show that the quantum coherence, local quantum Fisher information, and Bell non-locality can be significantly enhanced by augmenting classical correlations throughout the entire duration when the two qubits pass the channel. However, the gravitational interaction and energy gap between states exhibit intricate impacts on the quantum characteristics of gravitational cats. New features are reported that can be significant for both gravitational physics and quantum information processing.
The uncertainty principle limits the ability for observer to precisely measure two incompatible observables, and plays a crucial role in quantum precision measurement in the quantum information science. When quantum systems interact with their surroundings, they inevitably result in decoherence, which increases the uncertainty of the system. In the process of quantum information processing, the effective regulation of uncertainty becomes a key problem that needs to be solved. In this work, we investigate the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation of a two-qubit system under correlated channels with dephasing colored noise. We demonstrate that it is possible to control the entropic uncertainty, U, and its lower bound, Ub, by combining correlations between successive uses of channels and the non-Markovianity of the dynamical evolution. Firstly, the evolutionary characteristics of the trace distance are employed to distinguish between Markovianity and non-Markovianity of the channel. Subsequently, the system is selected to be either a maximally entangled state or separated state initially. By adjusting the strength η of the correlations, we find that with the increase of η, the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound decrease. Especially, if the channel is fully correlated (η = 1), the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound remain constant under the channel, indicating that decoherence is completely suppressed. A comparison of Markovian channel with non-Markovian channel reveals that the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound exhibit oscillatory behaviour under non-Markovian channels. The combination of correlations and non-Markovianity of the channel demonstrates that the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound can be reduced under fully correlated channels where the non-Markovianity has no effect. This is because fully correlated channels suppress decoherence to a greatest extent. Under partially correlated channels, the combination of correlations and non-Markovianity can more effectively reduce the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound. Under such channels, correlations of the channel reduce the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound during the whole evolution, while the non-Markovianity contributes to their oscillations and reduce them in some specific time. Furthermore, the results show that the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound reach steady values that depend only on the strength of the correlations after long-time evolution. In other words, the stronger the correlations, the lower the entropy uncertainty and its lower bound of steady states will be. Finally, we analyse the physical nature of the decrease of the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound, and it is found that the decrease of the entropic uncertainty and its lower bound originate from the increase of the quantum correlations in the system.
Abstract We address the time evolution of quantum correlations (QCs) such as entanglement, purity, and coherence for a model of two non-interacting qubits initially prepared as a maximally entangled bipartite state. We contrast the comparative potential of the classical fields to preserve these QCs in the noisy and noiseless realms. We also disclose the characteristic dynamical behavior of the QCs of the two-qubit state under the static noise effects originating from the common and different configuration models. We show that there is a direct connection between the fluctuations allowed by an environment and the preservation of QCs. Due to the static noise dephasing effects, the QCs are suppressed, resulting in the separability of the two-qubit entangled state after a finite duration. For bipartite QCs preservation, we show that the common configuration is more resourceful than the different configuration. Furthermore, this protection of the QCs under static noise for large intervals is entirely attributable to the existence of the entanglement sudden death and birth phenomenon. Most importantly, we found the bipartite QCs less fragile than the tripartite ones in comparison under the static noise. In addition, we find the concurrence measure to show more evident revivals of entanglement in comparison.
"We investigate the dynamics of quantum correlation of two qubits under local dephasing channels. We demonstrate the constancy of quantum correlation for long interval of times despite the detrimental effects of the environments. The natural protection of quantum correlation is accompanied by losses of classical correlation. At a sharp time, quantum and classical correlations exchange their roles: quantum corre- lation starts to decay while classical correlations become constant. We have called this phenomenon “sudden transition between classical and quantum decoherence” [Physical Review Letters 104, 200401 (2010)] . Such a dynamical feature is not the result of the Markovian approximation, but it appears in a much richer way also in the non-Markovian scenario."
