For a three-qubit Heisenberg XX spin chain with the uniform magnetic field and magnetic impurity, dynamic evolution of pairwise entanglement are studied. We show that the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death (ESD) occurs in the evolution of entanglement for some initial states. We also find that magnetic impurity cannot only eliminate the phenomenon of ESD but also induce the ESD effects, which is different from the case of uniform magnetic field where the ESD can be depressed but cannot be eliminated by introducing the uniform magnetic field.

We study the dynamics of X-state for anisotropic Heisenberg spin system using quantum fidelity. It is shown that while Bell diagonal state, a special class of X-state, is stationary, there exists a set of two parametric states which are stationary in presence of external uniform magnetic field.
