Dynamics of entanglement under decoherence in noninertial frames

In this paper,we investigate the entanglement dynamics of a two-qubit entangled state coupled with its noisy environment,and plan to utilize weak measurement and quantum reversal measurement to study the entanglement dynamics under different decoherence channels in noninertial frames.Through the calculations and analyses,it is shown that the weak measurement can prevent entanglement from coupling to the amplitude damping channel,while the system is under the phase damping and flip channels.This protection protocol cannot prevent entanglement but will accelerate the death of entanglement.In addition,if the system is in the noninertial reference frame,then the effect of weak measurement will be weakened for the amplitude damping channel.Nevertheless,for other decoherence channels,the Unruh effect does not affect the quantum weak measurement,the only exception is that the maximum value of entanglement is reduced to√2/2of the original value in the inertial frames.     

Tetrapartite entanglement measures of W-class in noninertial frames

We present the entanglement measures of a tetrapartite W-class entangled system in a noninertial frame, where the transformation between Minkowski and Rindler coordinates is applied.Two cases are considered.First, when one qubit has uniform acceleration whilst the other three remain stationary.Second, when two qubits have nonuniform accelerations and the others stay inertial.The 1–1 tangle, 1–3 tangle, and whole entanglement measurements π_4 and Π_4, are studied and illustrated with graphics through their dependence on the acceleration parameter r_d for the first case and r_c and r_d for the second case.It is found that the negativities(1–1 tangle and 1–3 tangle) and π-tangle decrease when the acceleration parameter r_d or in the second case r_c and r_d increase, remaining a nonzero entanglement in the majority of the results.This means that the system will be always entangled except for special cases.It is shown that only the 1–1 tangle for the first case vanishes at infinite accelerations, but for the second case the 1–1 tangle disappears completely when r 0.472473.An analytical expression for the von Neumann information entropy of the system is found and we note that it increases with the acceleration parameter.     

Teleportation of three-dimensional single particle state in noninertial frames

Considering the spin degree of freedom of the Dirac field, we study the entanglement behavior of a different class of communication channel and teleportation of three-dimensional single particle state in noninertial frames. Numerical analysis shows that the communication channel in our scheme can offer enough distillable entanglement for the teleportation protocol. Moreover, the teleportation protocol could work well if Rob＇s acceleration is not very big, but the fidelity of the teleportation is still reduced due to the Unruh effect.     

Entanglement Property of Tripartite GHZ State in Different Accelerating Observer Frames

According to the single-mode approximation applied to two different mo des, each associated with different uniformly accelerating reference frames, we present analytical expression of the Minkowski states for both the ground and first excited states. Applying such an approximation, we study the entanglement property of Bell and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states formed by such states. The corresponding entanglement properties are described by studying negativity and von Neumann entropy. The degree of entanglement will be degraded when the acceleration parameters increase. We find that the greater the number of particles in the entangled system, the more stable the system that is studied by the von Neumann entropy. The present results will be reduced to those in the case of the uniformly accelerating reference frame.

Entanglement measures of a new type pseudo-pure state in accelerated frames

In this work we analyze the characteristics of quantum entanglement of the Dirac field in noninertial reference frames in the context of a new type pseudo-pure state, which is composed of the Bell states. This will help us to understand the relationship between the relativity and quantum information theory. Some states will be changed from entangled states into separable ones around the critical value F = 1/4, but there is no such a critical value for the variable y related to acceleration a. We find that the negativity N_ABI (ρ^TA_ABI) increases with F but decreases with the variable y, while the variation of the negativity N_BIBII(ρ^TA_ABI) is opposite to that of the negativity N_ABI (ρ^TA_ABI). We also study the von Neumann entropies S(ρ_ABI) and S(ρ_BIBII). We find that the S(ρ_ABI) increases with variable y but S(ρ_BIBII) is independent of it. However, both S(ρ_ABI) and S(ρ_BIBII) first decreases with F and then increases with it. The concurrences C(ρ_ABI) and C(ρ_BIBII) are also discussed. We find that the former decreases with y while the latter increases with y but both of them first increase with F and then decrease with it.     

Quantum secure direct communication with Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-type state （GHZ state） over noisy channels

We propose a quantum error-rejection scheme for direct communication with three-qubit quantum codes based on the direct communication of secret messages without any secret key shared in advance. Given the symmetric and independent errors of the transmitted qubits, our scheme can tolerate a bit of error rate up to 33.1%, thus the protocol is deterministically secure against any eavesdropping attack even in a noisy channel.     

多粒子GHZ纠缠实验中Fisher信息的保真度方法获取

保真度与Fisher信息在量子精密测量和量子纠缠判定中充当着非常重要的角色。本文从概率统计和量子力学的角度出发,阐明了两者之间的区别与联系,给出了保真度方法获取Fisher信息的数学表达式;基于量子测量中常见的宇称测量模型,我们对多粒子Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)纠缠产生实验中Fisher信息的获取开展了保真度方法研究,通过对实验数据的蒙特卡洛模拟,二阶或高阶曲线拟合获取了系统的Fisher信息,并将其与理论计算结果进行对比,结果表明保真度方法可以有效地获取量子系统的Fisher信息,当体系粒子数目较少时,宜采用二阶拟合方法获取系统的Fisher信息,而当粒子数目较多时,需考虑高阶拟合项的影响。此外,我们还将多光子GHZ纠缠实验中Fisher信息的保真度获取结果与海林格距离方法的获取结果进行对比,发现二者是一致的,这也进一步验证了保真度方法获取Fisher信息的有效性。本文的研究也为开展与Fisher信息相关的量子拓扑学和量子相变的研究提供了新的途径。     

A simple scheme for generating multi-atom GHZ state via cavity QED

This paper proposes a simple scheme for generating a three-atom GHZ state via cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED). The task can be achieved through the interaction between two EPR states, which can be prepared easily with current technology. In this scheme, the cavity field is only virtually excited during the interaction process, and no quantum information transfer between the atoms and the cavity is required. Thus it greatly prolongs the efficient decoherent time. Moreover, this scheme is also applicable for generating an N-atom GHZ state.

Tripartite entanglement of fermionic system in accelerated frames

The dynamics of tripartite entanglement of fermionic system in noninertial frames through linear contraction criterion when one or two observers are accelerated is investigated. In one observer accelerated case the entanglement measurement is not invariant with respect to the partial realignment of different subsystems and for two observers accelerated case it is invariant. It is shown that the acceleration of the frame does not generate entanglement in any bipartite subsystems. Unlike the bipartite states, the genuine tripartite entanglement does not completely vanish in both one observer accelerated and two observers accelerated cases even in the limit of infinite acceleration. The degradation of tripartite entanglement is fast when two observers are accelerated than when one observer is accelerated. It is shown that tripartite entanglement is a better resource for quantum information processing than the bipartite entanglement in noninertial frames.

We propose a scheme to generate polarization-entangled multiphoton Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states based on weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity and subsequent homodyne measurement. It can also be generalized to produce maximally N-qubit entangled states. The success probabilities of our schemes are almost equal to 1.     

Teleportation of N-Particle Entangled GHZ State via Entanglement Swapping

In this scheme, N non-maximally entangled particle pairs are used as quantum channel to teleport an unknown N-particle entangled GHZ state via entanglement swapping. In order to realize this teleportation, the sender Alice operates Bell-state measurement on particles belonging to herself. Then she informs the results to the receiver Bob through classical communication. According to the results, Bob operates corresponding transformation to reconstruct the initial state. The advantage of this scheme is that it needs only one common unitary matrix for Alice‘s different results, which has a more general meaning. As a special case, teleporting an unknown three-particle entangled GHZ state is proposed.

Precise detection of multipartite entanglement in fourqubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger diagonal states

We propose a method of constructing the separability criteria for multipartite quantum states on the basis of entanglement witnesses. The entanglement witnesses are obtained by finding the maximal expectation values of Hermitian operators and then optimizing over all possible Hermitian operators. We derive a set of tripartite separability criteria for the four-qubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) diagonal states. The derived criterion set contains four criteria that are necessary and sufficient for the tripartite separability of the highly symmetric four-qubit GHZ diagonal states; the criteria completely account for the numerically obtained boundaries of the tripartite separable state set. One of the criteria is just the tripartite separability criterion of the four-qubit generalized Werner states.
