Influence of dephasing on the entanglement teleportation via a two-qubit Heisenberg XYZ system

We study the entanglement dynamics of an anisotropic two-qubit Heisenberg XYZ system in the presence of intrinsic decoherence. The usefulness of such a system for performance of the quantum teleportation protocol T₀\mathcal{T}_0 and entanglement teleportation protocol T₁\mathcal{T}_1 is also investigated. The results depend on the initial conditions and the parameters of the system. The roles of system parameters such as the inhomogeneity of the magnetic field b and the spin-orbit interaction parameter D, in entanglement dynamics and fidelity of teleportation, are studied for both product and maximally entangled initial states of the resource. We show that for the product and maximally entangled initial states, increasing D amplifies the effects of dephasing and hence decreases the asymptotic entanglement and fidelity of the teleportation. For a product initial state and specific interval of the magnetic field B, the asymptotic entanglement and hence the fidelity of teleportation can be improved by increasing B. The XY and XYZ Heisenberg systems provide a minimal resource entanglement, required for realizing efficient teleportation. Also, in the absence of the magnetic field, the degree of entanglement is preserved for the maximally entangled initial states $\left| {\psi \left. {\left( 0 \right)} \right\rangle = \frac{1} {{\sqrt 2 }}\left( {\left| {\left. {00} \right\rangle \pm } \right|\left. {11} \right\rangle } \right)} \right.$\left| {\psi \left. {\left( 0 \right)} \right\rangle = \frac{1} {{\sqrt 2 }}\left( {\left| {\left. {00} \right\rangle \pm } \right|\left. {11} \right\rangle } \right)} \right.. The same is true for the maximally entangled initial states $\left| {\psi \left. {\left( 0 \right)} \right\rangle = \frac{1} {{\sqrt 2 }}\left( {\left| {\left. {01} \right\rangle \pm } \right|\left. {10} \right\rangle } \right)} \right.$\left| {\psi \left. {\left( 0 \right)} \right\rangle = \frac{1} {{\sqrt 2 }}\left( {\left| {\left. {01} \right\rangle \pm } \right|\left. {10} \right\rangle } \right)} \right., in the absence of spin-orbit interaction D and the inhomogeneity parameter b. Therefore, it is possible to perform quantum teleportation protocol T₀\mathcal{T}_0 and entanglement teleportation T₁\mathcal{T}_1, with perfect quality, by choosing a proper set of parameters and employing one of these maximally entangled robust states as the initial state of the resource.     

Effects of phase decoherence on the entanglement of a two-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg XYZ chain with an in-plane magnetic field

We investigate the phase decoherence effects on the entanglement of a two-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg model with a nonuniform magnetic field in the x–z-plane. As a measure of the entanglement, the concurrence of the system is calculated. It is shown that when the magnetic field is along the z-axis, the nonuniform and uniform components of the field have no influence on the entanglement for the cases of and , respectively. But when the magnetic field is not along the z-axis, both the uniform and the nonuniform components of the field will introduce the decoherence effects. It is found that the effects of the Heisenberg chain's anisotropy in the Z-direction on the entanglement are dependent on the direction of the field. Moreover, the larger the initial concurrence is, the higher value it will exhibit during the time evolution of the system for a proper set of the parameters ν, Δ, θ, γ , B and b.     

Various Correlations in a Two-Qubit Heisenberg XXZ Spin System Both in Thermal Equilibrium and Under the Intrinsic Decoherence

In this paper we discuss various correlations measured by the concurrence (C), classical correlation (CC), quantum discord (QD), and geometric measure of discord (GMD) in a two-qubit Heisenberg XXZ spin system in the presence of external magnetic field and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) anisotropic antisymmetric interaction. Based on the analytically derived expressions for the correlations for the cases of thermal equilibrium and the inclusion of intrinsic decoherence, we discuss and compare the effects of various system parameters on the correlations in both cases. We also found that there is not a definite ordering of these quantities in thermal equilibrium, whereas there is a descending order of the CC, C, GMD and QD under the intrinsic decoherence with a nonnull B when the initial state is $|\varPsi_{2}(0) \rangle = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} (|00 \rangle + |11 \rangle)$ .     

Entanglement evolution in an anisotropic two-qubit Heisenberg XYZ model with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

This paper investigates the entanglement evolution of a two-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg XYZ chain in the presence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction.The time evolution of the concurrence is studied for the initial pure entangled states cos θ |00 + sin θ |11 and cos |01 + sin |10 at zero temperature.The influences of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction D,anisotropic parameter and environment coupling strength γ on entanglement evolution are analysed in detail.It is found that the effect of noisy environment obviously suppresses the entanglement evolution,and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction D acts on the time evolution of entanglement only when the initial state is cos |01 + sin |10.Finally,a formula of steady state concurrence is obtained,and it is shown that the stable concurrence,which is independent of different initial states and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction D,depends on the anisotropic parameter and the environment coupling strength γ.     

Effects of Anisotropy on Entanglement in a Two-Qubit Heisenberg XYZ Chain with Intrinsic Decoherence

Taking the intrinsic decoherence effect into account, the entanglement ofa two-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg XYZ chain in the presence of the Dzyaloshinski Moriya （DM） anisotropic antisymetric interaction is investigated in this paper. Concurrence, the measurement of entanglement, is calculated. Compared with the anisotropic in XY plane, the DM interaction is another kind of anisotropic antisymmetrie exchange interaction. It is shown that the intrinsic decoherence obviously suppresses the time evolution of the entanglement. The DM interaction only acts on the time evolution of the entanglement when the initial state is [ψ（0）〉 = cosα｜01〉 ＋ sinα｜10〉 and weakens the degree of entanglement. The anisotropic in XY plane merely impacts on the time evolution of the entanglement when the system ＆ initially in a state ｜ψ（0）〉 = cos α｜00〉 ＋ sin α｜11 〉. The sufficiently weak anisotropic in XY plane can effectively enhance the degree of entanglement.     

The transfer of the quantum correlation from two-mode nonclassical state field to the supercurrents in two distant SQUID rings

We have considered two distant mesoscopic superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) rings A and B in the presence of two-mode nonclassical state fields and investigated the correlation of the supercurrents in the two rings using the normalized correlation function $C_{\rm AB}$. We show that when the parameter $\alpha$ is very small for the separable state with the density matrix $\hat {\rho } = (\left| {\alpha , - \alpha } \right\rangle \left\langle {\alpha , - \alpha } \right| + \left| { - \alpha ,\alpha } \right\rangle \left\langle { - \alpha ,\alpha } \right|) / 2$ and entangled coherent state (ECS) $\left| u \right\rangle = N_1 (\left| {\alpha , - \alpha } \right\rangle + \left| { - \alpha ,\alpha } \right\rangle )$ fields, the dynamic behaviours of the normalized correlation function $C_{\rm AB}$ are similar, but it is quite different for the entangled coherent state $\left| {u}' \right\rangle = N_2 (\left| {\alpha , - \alpha } \right\rangle - \left| { - \alpha ,\alpha } \right\rangle )$ field. When the parameter $\alpha $ is very large, the dynamic behaviours of $C_{\rm AB}$ are almost the same for the separable state, entangled coherent state $\left| u \right\rangle $ and $\left| {u}' \right\rangle $ fields. For the two-mode squeezed vacuum state field the maximum of $C_{\rm AB}$ increases monotonically with the squeezing parameter $r$, and as $r \to \infty $, $C_{\rm AB} \to 1$. This means that the supercurrents in the two rings A and B are quantum mechanically correlated perfectly. It is concluded that not all the quantum correlations in the two-mode nonclassical state field can be transferred to the supercurrents; and the transfer depends on the state of the two-mode nonclassical state field prepared.     

Controlling on Entangled Decoherence by the Interaction Model Between Qubit and Environment

The entangling evolution of the coupled qubits interacting with non-Markov environment is investigated in terms of concurrence. The results show that the entanglement of quantum systems depends on not only the initial state of system but also the coupling ways between qubit and environment. It shows that: (1) when the system is initially in ( | 00 ?±| 11 ?)/?2( | 00 \rangle\pm| 11 \rangle)/\sqrt{2} state or in the mixed state which is produced by the state, if we can control the coupling between the qubits and the environment in a asymmetrical state, we can make the quantum system always in the entangled state. (2) For an initial state ( | 01 ?±| 10 ?)/?2( | 01 \rangle\pm| 10 \rangle)/\sqrt{2} or in its mixed state, in contrast, there will not be entangled death under the symmetric coupling. We also find that, in ( | 01 ?±| 10?)/?2( | 01 \rangle\pm| 10\rangle)/\sqrt{2} or in its mixed state, the stronger the interaction between qubits is, the better to struggle against entanglement sudden death is.     

Creating large NOON states with imperfect phase control

Optical NOON states ${{\left( {\left| {\left. {N,0} \right\rangle + } \right|\left. {0,N} \right\rangle } \right)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\left( {\left| {\left. {N,0} \right\rangle + } \right|\left. {0,N} \right\rangle } \right)} {\sqrt 2 }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\sqrt 2 }}${{\left( {\left| {\left. {N,0} \right\rangle + } \right|\left. {0,N} \right\rangle } \right)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\left( {\left| {\left. {N,0} \right\rangle + } \right|\left. {0,N} \right\rangle } \right)} {\sqrt 2 }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\sqrt 2 }} are an important resource for Heisenberg-limited metrology and quantum lithography. The only known methods for creating NOON states with arbitrary N via linear optics and projective measurements seem to have a limited range of application due to imperfect phase control. Here, we show that bootstrapping techniques can be used to create high-fidelity NOON states of arbitrary size.     

Amplitude-squared squeezing in superposed coherent states

We study amplitude-squared squeezing of the Hermitian operator Z_θ=Z₁ cosθ+Z₂ sin θ, in the most general superposition state , of two coherent states and . Here operators Z_1,2 are defined by , a is annihilation operator, θ is angle, and complex numbers C_1,2 , α, β are arbitrary and only restriction on these is the normalization condition of the state . We define the condition for a state to be amplitude-squared squeezed for the operator Z_θ if squeezing parameter , where N=a⁺a and . We find maximum amplitude-squared squeezing of Z_θ in the superposed coherent state with minimum value 0.3268 of the parameter S for an infinite combinations with α- β= 2.16 exp [±i(π/4) + iθ/2], and with arbitrary values of (α+β) and θ. For this minimum value of squeezing parameter S, the expectation value of photon number can vary from the minimum value 1.0481 to infinity. Variations of the parameter S with different variables at maximum amplitude-squared squeezing are also discussed.     

Decoherence Effect in An Anisotropic Two-Qubit Heisenberg XYZ Model with Inhomogeneous Magnetic Field

Taking the decoherence effect into account, the entanglement evolution of a two-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg XYZ chain in the presence of inhomogeneous magnetic field is investigated. The time evolution of concurrence is studied for the initial state cos θ｜01） ＋ sin θ｜10） at zero temperature. The influences of inhomogeneous magnetic field, anisotropic parameter and decoherence on entanglement dynamic are addressed in detail, and a concurrence formula of the steady state is found. It is shown that the entanglement sudden death （ESD） and entanglement sudden birth （ESB） appear with the decoherence effect, and the stable concurrence depends on the uniform magnetic field B, anisotropic parameter △ and environment coupling strength γ, which is independent of different initial states and nonuniform magnetic field b.     

New two-mode intermediate momentum-coordinate representation with quantum entanglement and its application

We construct four linear composite operators for a two-particle system and give common eigenvectors of those operators. The technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators is employed to prove that those common eigenvectors are complete and orthonormal. Therefore, a new two-mode intermediate momentum-coordinate representation which involves quantum entanglement for a two-particle system is proposed and applied to some two-body dynamic problems. Moreover, the pure-state density matrix | ξ ₁ ,ξ ₂ >_C,DC,D< ξ ₁ ,ξ ₂ | is a Radon transform of Wigner operator.

One-dimensional random Ising systems with interaction decayr −(1+ɛ): A convergent cluster expansion

WE consider a one-dimensional random Ising model with Hamiltonian $$H = \sum\limits_{i\ddag j} {\frac{{J_{ij} }}{{\left| {i - j} \right|^{1 + \varepsilon } }}S_i S_j } + h\sum\limits_i {S_i } $$ , where ε>0 andJ _ij are independent, identically distributed random variables with distributiondF(x) such that i) $$\int {xdF\left( x \right) = 0} $$ , ii) $$\int {e^{tx} dF\left( x \right)< \infty \forall t \in \mathbb{R}} $$ . We construct a cluster expansion for the free energy and the Gibbs expectations of local observables. This expansion is convergent almost surely at every temperature. In this way we obtain that the free energy and the Gibbs expectations of local observables areC ^∞ functions of the temperature and of the magnetic fieldh. Moreover we can estimate the decay of truncated correlation functions. In particular for every ε′>0 there exists a random variablec(ω)m, finite almost everywhere, such that $$\left| {\left\langle {s_0 s_j } \right\rangle _H - \left\langle {s_0 } \right\rangle _H \left\langle {s_j } \right\rangle _H } \right| \leqq \frac{{c\left( \omega \right)}}{{\left| j \right|^{1 + \varepsilon - \varepsilon '} }}$$ , where 〈 〉 _H denotes the Gibbs average with respect to the HamiltonianH.     

Continuum variable entangled state generated by an asymmetric beam splitter

For an asymmetric beam-splitter a new kind of entangled state is introduced, we then derive the integration measure with which such states can make up a complete and orthonormal representation in two-mode Fock space. We then show how to use in finding new squeezing operator and new squeezed state, whose generation can relies on the asymmetric beamsplitter.     

Remeasurement of the magnetic moment of the antiproton

A high-precision measurement of the finestructure splitting in the circular 11→10 X-ray transition of \(\bar p^{208} Pb\) was performed. The experimental value of 1199(5) eV is in agreement with QED calculations. From that value the magnetic moment of the antiproton was deduced to be ?2.8005(90)μ _nucl. With this result the uncertainty of the previous world average value was reduced by a factor of ≈2. A comparison with the corresponding quantity of the proton now yields: \({{\left( {\mu _p - \left| {\left\langle {\mu _{\bar p} } \right\rangle } \right|} \right)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\left( {\mu _p - \left| {\left\langle {\mu _{\bar p} } \right\rangle } \right|} \right)} {\mu _p }}} \right. \kern-0em} {\mu _p }} = \left( { - 2.4 \pm 2.9} \right) \times 10^{ - 3} \) .

Influence of Magnetic Field on Qutrit Teleportation under Intrinsic Decoherence

We study qutrit teleportation through a qutrit xyz chain, in the presence of intrinsic decoherence and a non-homogeneous magnetic field. We study the effects of intrinsic phase change, magnetic field and entanglement of the initial state of the channel. It is observed that while the intrinsic phase change and the non-homogeneity of the magnetic field have adverse effects on the teleportation fidelity, the entanglement of the initial state of the channeled enhances the latter. Moreover, the intrinsic decoherence may remove the ripples from the time curve that is delivered by the Schrödinger channel.

     

Wigner functions and tomograms of the photon-depleted even and odd coherent states

Using the coherent state representation of Wigner operator and the technique of integration within an ordered product （IWOP） of operators, this paper derives the Wigner functions for the photon-depleted even and odd coherent states （PDEOCSs）. Moreover, in terms of the Wigner functions with respect to the complex parameter a the nonclassical properties of the PDEOCSs are discussed. The results show that the nonclassicality for the state ｜β, m〉o （or ｜β,m〉e） is more pronounced when m is even （or odd）. According to the marginal distributions of the Wigner functions, the physical meaning of the Wigner functions is given. Further, the tomograms of the PDEOCSs are calculated with the aid of newly introduced intermediate coordinate-momentum representation in quantum optics.     

Options for angular momentum projection II: A finite sum representation of the Hill-Wheeler projector

An exact and finite sum representation of the Hill-Wheeler projection operator is obtained under the provision that the state on which the operator acts can be expanded as $$\left| {\psi _\alpha } \right\rangle = \sum\limits_{J = J_{\min } }^{J_{\max } } {c_J^\alpha \left| {J,\alpha } \right\rangle .} $$ The result provides a definite advantage over numerical integration methods, especially if high spin states are considered.     

The entropic squeezing of superposition of two arbitrary coherent states

In this paper the superpositions of two arbitrary coherent states ｜ψ〉 = α ｜β｜ ＋ be^iψ ｜mβe^iδ〉 are constructed by using the superposition principle of quantum mechanics. The entropic squeezing effects of the quantum states are studied. The numerical results indicate that the amplitudes, the ratio between the amplitudes of two coherent states, the phase difference between the two components and the relative phase of the two coefficients play important roles in the squeezing effects of the position entropy and momentum entropy.
