Entanglement with three oscillators

Zuriati Ahmad Zukarnain, A. Konstadopoulou, Apostol Vourdas

Published Jan 1, 2005• 0 citations

Abstract

A system consist of three oscillators A, B and C are considered. It is assumed that the oscillators B and C are interacting with each other where as the oscillators A and C
are entangled despite of the fact that they have never interacted with each other.

Entanglement dynamics of many-body systems: Analytical results

A. L. de Paula, J. G. G. de Oliveira, J. G. Peixoto de Faria +2 more

We consider a many-body system consisting of a harmonic oscillator linearly coupled to $N$ others and solve the corresponding dynamical problem analytically. Initially, the main oscillator is prepared in a superposition of two coherent states and the $N$ others in the ground states. We divide this system in arbitrary three partitions and the entanglement dynamics between any of these partitions is quantified. We show that the residual entanglement of the tripartite system is always present. Besides, the concurrence of any two partitions depends on the overlap between the two coherent states forming the initial superposition of the main oscillator and the distribution of excitations in the partitions. Finally, we obtain a hierarchy of entanglement between the central oscillator and partitions formed by the other oscillators. For long times the excitations of the main oscillator are completely transferred to the $N$ others and these are found entangled.

Quantum entanglement of linearly coupled quantum harmonic oscillators

Dmitry N. Makarov, K. A. Makarova

Quantum harmonic oscillators coupled through coordinates and momenta, represented by the Hamiltonian $\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{H}={\ensuremath{\sum}}_{i=1}^{2}(\frac{{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{p}}_{i}^{2}}{2{m}_{i}}+\frac{{m}_{i}{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{i}^{2}}{2}{x}_{i}^{2})+{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{H}}_{\text{int}}$, where the interaction of two oscillators ${\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{H}}_{\text{int}}=i{k}_{1}{x}_{1}{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{p}}_{2}+i{k}_{2}{x}_{2}{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{p}}_{1}+{k}_{3}{x}_{1}{x}_{2}\ensuremath{-}{k}_{4}{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{p}}_{1}{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{p}}_{2}$, are found in many applications of quantum optics, nonlinear physics, molecular chemistry, and biophysics. Despite this, there is currently no general solution to the Schr\"odinger equation for such a system. This is especially relevant for quantum entanglement of such a system in quantum optics applications. Here this problem is solved and it is shown that quantum entanglement depends on only one coefficient, $R\ensuremath{\in}(0,1)$, which includes all the parameters of the system under consideration. It has been shown that quantum entanglement can be very large at certain values of this coefficient. The results obtained have a fairly simple analytical form, which facilitates analysis.

Correlations in a chain of three oscillators with nearest neighbour coupling

Bahari Idrus, A. Konstadopoulou, Timothy P. Spiller +1 more

A chain of three oscillators A, B, C with nearest neighbour coupling, is considered. It is shown that the correlations between A, C (which are not coupled directly) can be stronger than the correlations between A, B. Also in some cases various witnesses of entanglement show that A, C are entangled but they cannot lead to any conclusion about A, B.

Dynamics of Quantum Correlations in a Qubit-Oscillator System Interacting via a Dissipative Bath

R. Badveli, V. Jagadish, S. Akshaya +2 more

The entanglement dynamics in a bipartite system consisting of a qubit and a harmonic oscillator interacting only through their coupling with the same bath is studied. The considered model assumes that the qubit is coupled to the bath via the Jaynes-Cummings interaction, whilst the position of the oscillator is coupled to the position of the bath via a dipole interaction. We give a microscopic derivation of the Gorini–Kossakowski–Sudarshan–Lindblad equation for the considered model. Based on the Kossakowski matrix, we show that non-classical correlations including entanglement can be generated by the considered dynamics. We then analytically identify specific initial states for which entanglement is generated. This result is also supported by our numerical simulations.

Entanglement in a Classical System

David W. Snoke

This chapter presents the surprising mathematical result that classical systems can indeed have entanglement. However, the degree to which they can be entangled is strictly limited, while quantum systems have no limit to their amount of entanglement.

Coherent repopulation of the components of a three-level quantum system in the field of a pulsed bichromatic radio frequency wave

Д.Ф. Зарецкий, S. B. Sazonov

The coherent repopulation of a quantum system consisting of three nonequidistant levels in the field of a resonant bichromatic rf wave is studied. The atoms are assumed to have an impulsive interaction with the rf wave in which the pulse duration is less than any of the relaxation times. The hyperfine structure of gas atoms and a system of atomic oscillator levels in a magnetic trap are considered as examples of such a quantum system. It is shown that in the second case, the coherent repopulation effect can be used to cool neutral atoms in magnetic traps.
