Quantum Correlations in a Family of Two-Qubit Separable States

Quantum correlations in a family of two-qubit separable classical-quantum correlated states are intensively studied with four diferent approaches,namely,quantum discord[Phys.Rev.Lett.88(2002)017901],measurementinduced 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 diferent approaches are compared and discussed so that their three distinct features are exposed.

量子关联与原子间相互作用距离关系的研究

本文将两个二能级原子注入一个腔中,用共生纠缠的方法来度量两原子之间的纠缠并推出它们之间的量子失协,还给出了原子与环境之间的共生纠缠与量子失协的计算公式,讨论了原子自发衰变率的变化对量子纠缠及失协的影响,及不同的初始状态情况下,纠缠及失协随原子距离的演化情况。结果表明：原子自发衰变率减小,原子与环境之间的量子纠缠及失协增加;选择不同的初态,可以控制原子间出现纠缠死亡的现象或量子失协为零的状态。

非马尔科夫环境中各向异性海森堡自旋链的量子失协

利用量子失协方法研究在非马尔科夫环境中具有时变磁场的两比特各向异性海森堡XYZ模型量子失协的动力学演化。海森堡XYZ系统的初始态为最大纠缠态 $left|psi_{A B}rightrangle=(1 / sqrt{2})(|11rangle+|00rangle)$ , 利用非马尔科夫量子态扩散方法解析求解非马尔科夫主方程, 得出系统的约化密度矩阵; 然后代入量子失协公式得出系统量子失协的演化动力学。讨论自旋耦合强度、环境关联系数γ和余弦磁场强度B对量子失协动力学的影响。研究发现: 当环境关联系数γ较小时, 系统的量子失协明显呈现上升趋势, 因此可以表明非马尔科夫环境具有增加系统量子失协的作用。同时较大的自旋耦合系数J和J_Z以及余弦磁场强度B也具有增加系统量子失协的作用。     

Characterizing Quantum Correlations in Arbitrary-Dimensional Bipartite Systems Using Hurwitz's Theory

Quantum correlations play vital roles in the quantum features in quantum information processing tasks. Among the measures of quantum correlations, quantum discord （QD） and entanglement of formation （EOF） axe two significant ones. Recent research has shown that there exists a relation between QD and EOF, which makes QD more significant in quantum information theory. However, until now, there exists no general method of chaxaeterizing quantum discord in high-dimensional quantum systems. In this paper, we have proposed a general method for calculating quantum discord in axbitraxy-dimensionM bipaxtite quantum systems in terms of Hurwitz＇s theory. Applications including the Werner state, the spin-1 XXZ model thermal equilibrium state, the Horodecki state, and the separable-bound-free entanglement state are investigated. We present the method of obtaining the EOF of axbitraxy-dimensional bipaxtite quantum states via purification, and the relations.hip between QD and EOF.     

Quantum correlation of a three-particle-class state under quantum decoherence

We investigate the quantum characteristics of a three-particle W-class state and reveal the relationship between quantum discord and quantum entanglement under decoherence.We can also identify the state for which discord takes a maximal value for a given decoherence factor,and present a strong bound on quantum entanglement–quantum discord.In contrast,a striking result will be obtained that the quantum discord is not always stronger than the entanglement of formation in the case of decoherence.Furthermore,we also theoretically study the variation trend of the monogamy of quantum correlations for the three-particle W-class state under the phase flip channel,and find that the three-particle W-class state could transform from polygamous into monogamous,owing to the decoherence.

Investigations into quantum correlation of coupled qubits in a squeezed vacuum reservoir

In this paper,we investigate the quantum correlation of coupled qubits which are initially in maximally entangled mixed states in a squeezed vacuum reservoir.We compare and analyze the effects of squeezed parameters on quantum discord and quantum concurrence.The results show that in a squeezed vacuum reservoir,the quantum discord and quantum concurrence perform with completely opposite behaviors with the change of squeezed parameters.Quantum discord survives longer with the increase of squeezed amplitude parameter,but entanglement death is faster on the contrary.The results also indicate that the classical correlation of the system is smaller than quantum discord in a vacuum reservoir,while it is bigger than quantum discord in a squeezed vacuum reservoir.The quantum discord and classical correlation are more robust than quantum concurrence in the two reservoir environments,which indicates that the entanglement actually is easily affected by decoherence and quantum discord has a stronger ability to avoid decoherence in a squeezed vacuum reservoir.
