Entropic uncertainty and entanglement dynamics in two superconducting qubits

Abstract

In this paper, we examine the dynamics of Entropic Uncertainty (EU) and concurrence entanglement (CN) in a two-qubit superconducting system influenced by external parameters such as energy biases, coupling strength, and an oscillating external magnetic field. The Hamiltonian includes a Josephson junction coupling term along the [Formula: see text]-direction. Our results show an inverse relationship between EU and CN: stronger coupling reduces EU and enhances CN, while higher energy biases increase EU and decrease CN. The intrinsic magnetic field strength modulates EU and CN, with higher magnetic field reducing EU and enhancing CN at specific phase angles. Temperature variations significantly impact quantum measures, with higher temperatures increasing EU and reducing CN, indicating that lower temperatures favor entanglement and minimize uncertainty. These findings highlight the sensitivity of quantum properties to external parameters, providing optimization for the quantum state control in superconducting qubit systems.

Dynamics of two superconducting qubits under thermal–classical environmental noise

Fazal Karam, Suliman Khan, Khushnood Shah +1 more

We investigate the time evolutions of purity, coherence and entanglement in two superconducting qubits coupled through Josephson junctions. The system is modeled by coupling strength, energy, Josephson energy and phase difference. Meanwhile, the structure is under the action of thermal field and classical Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (OU) noise. According to our findings, quantum correlations are notably developed governed by the system parameters. Purity and entanglement generally increase for the energetic qubit regimes. The state’s entanglement and purity degrade with increased coupling strength and temperature. On the other hand, the optimal preservation of quantum correlations reqires the adjustment to intermediate Josephson energies ([Formula: see text]) and phase differences ([Formula: see text]). The coherence measurement shows completely opposite traits compared to the entanglement and purity in the system. These results reveal that quantum states need proper parametrization for the considered state while providing optimization for the higher performance of superconducting qubits in quantum information processing.

Entropic uncertainty relation of a two-qutrit Heisenberg spin model in nonuniform magnetic fields and its dynamics under intrinsic decoherence

Zuo-Yuan Zhang, Daxiu Wei, Jin‐Ming Liu

Abstract The precision of measurements for two incompatible observables in a physical system can be improved with the assistance of quantum memory. In this paper, we investigate the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation for a spin-1 Heisenberg model in the presence of external magnetic fields, the systemic quantum entanglement (characterized by the negativity) is analyzed as contrast. Our results show that for the XY spin chain in thermal equilibrium, the entropic uncertainty can be reduced by reinforcing the coupling between the two particles or decreasing the temperature of the environment. At zero-temperature, the strong magnetic field can result in the growth of the entropic uncertainty. Moreover, in the Ising case, the variation trends of the uncertainty are relied on the choices of anisotropic parameters. Taking the influence of intrinsic decoherence into account, we find that the strong coupling accelerates the inflation of the uncertainty over time, whereas the high magnetic field contributes to its reduction during the temporal evolution. Furthermore, we also verify that the evolution behavior of the entropic uncertainty is roughly anti-correlated with that of the entanglement in the whole dynamical process. Our results could offer new insights into quantum precision measurement for the high spin solid-state systems.

Dynamics of quantum-memory assisted entropic uncertainty of a two-spin Heisenberg XXX model under the intrinsic decoherence effect

A-B A Mohamed, Atta Ur Rahman, F. M. Aldosari +1 more

Abstract In this study, the quantum-memory assisted entropic uncertainty (QM-EU) and entanglement dynamics of the two-qubit Heisenberg XXX chain have been explored in the presence of intrinsic decoherence. The effect of the x-component of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) and Kaplan-Shekhtman-Entin-Wohlman-Aharony (KSEA) interactions has been considered. The generation and preservation of quantum memory and entanglement have been examined for various values of the DM, KSEA, spin-spin, and spin coupling strengths. The uncertainty negatively affects the entanglement and both have anti-correlation. The absence and presence of intrinsic decoherence prevail in differing impacts on the dynamics of the system. In the first case, prolonged entanglement preservation, uncertainty suppression, and oscillatory dynamics have been observed. Moreover, in order to achieve the best-prolonged entanglement preservation and relative reduction of the entropic uncertainty, we have analyzed several parameter settings. We find that the effects of raising the DM, KSEA, and spin-spin interaction individually and simultaneously are different. The individual and simultaneous increase of the DM, KSEA, and spin-spin interaction parameters control the degree of entanglement, entropic uncertainty, and primarily the dynamics of the system.

Quantum memory assisted entropic uncertainty and entanglement dynamics in classical dephasing channels

Atta Ur Rahman, Nour Zidan

We investigate the dynamics of entropic uncertainty relations, tightness, and concurrence in two non-interacting qubits produced in the Werner state and subjected to classical channels. In two contexts, common and independent qubit-noise configurations, a Gaussian Ornstein Uhlenbeck process is used to control the noisy effects of the local external fields. Using parameter optimization, we establish long-term stability in two qubits while reducing the environment's disorder entropic impact and maintaining entanglement. Using entropic uncertainty relations, tightness and concurrence, we show that in the presence of Ornstein Uhlenbeck noise, two-qubit coherence and entanglement in local fields are both weak and readily lost. Despite this, longer entanglement and lower entropy can be predicted within a limited range of the noise parameter and the purity estimator of the two-qubit state. Furthermore, the measured rate of entropy rise outpaces the rate of disentanglement generation. In addition, we also utilized the tightness measure to estimate the uncertainty in the dynamics of bipartite entropic relations.

Entropic Uncertainty for Two Coupled Dipole Spins Using Quantum Memory under the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interaction

Ahmad N. Khedr, Abdel‐Baset A. Mohamed, Abdel‐Haleem Abdel‐Aty +3 more

-axis, the current study explores the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation (QMA-EUR), entropy mixedness and the concurrence two-spin entanglement. Quantum entanglement is reduced at increased temperature values, but inflation uncertainty and mixedness are enhanced. The considered quantum effects are stabilized to their stationary values at high temperatures. The two-spin entanglement is entirely repressed if the D-M interaction is disregarded, and the entropic uncertainty and entropy mixedness reach their maximum values for equal coupling rates. Rather than the concurrence, the entropy mixedness can be a proper indicator of the nature of the entropic uncertainty. The effect of model parameters (D-M coupling and dipole-dipole spin) on the quantum dynamic effects in thermal environment temperature is explored. The results reveal that the model parameters cause significant variations in the predicted QMA-EUR.
