Influence of Composite Effect from Quantum Channels on Entanglement

The dynamics of entanglement between two qubits in the local damping two-sided channel and single-sided channel are compared through non-Markovian process and Markovian process. The entanglement between two qubits is found to be longer in the single-sided channel case due to the weakening of the dissipative effects. In the two-sided channel, influenced by the entanglement between qubits, the previous independent dissipative channels incline to the composite effect of the Markovian process. This composite effect results in the dissipative effect of one channel affecting the qubits in the other channel, especially inhibiting the backflow effect in the non-Markovian channel, which is disadvantageous to the entanglement maintenance between qubits. In the Markovian channel, the composite effect of the damping two-sided channels is more obvious since there is no backflow effect, thus more disadvantageous to the entanglement maintenance.

Correlation and Information in Quantum Channels

Quantum and classical correlations in quantum channels are investigated by means of an entangled pure state and a separable state which is closest to an entangled pure state. The coherent information and the separable information are used to estimate how much correlation is transmitted through a quantum channel. As the examples, the linear dissipative channel of qubits and the quantum erasure channel are considered.     

Entanglement Dynamics of Quantum States Undergoing Decoherence from a Driven Critical Environment

In this paper,we have investigated the quantum entanglement of quantum states undergoing decoherence from a spin environment which drives a quantum phase transition.From our analysis,we find that the entanglement dynamics depends not only on the coupling strength but also on the external magnetic field and the number of the freedom degrees of the environment.Specially,our results imply that the decay of the entanglement can be enhanced by the quantum phase transition of the environment when the system is coupled to the environment weakly.Additionally,the discussion of the case of the multipartite states with high dimensions is made.     

Effect of Induced Transition on the Quantum Entanglement and Coherence in Two-Coupled Double Quantum Dot System

Studying quantum properties in solid-state systems is a significant avenue for research. In this scenario, double quantum dots appear as a versatile platform for technological breakthroughs in quantum computation and nanotechnology. This work inspects the thermal entanglement and quantum coherence in two-coupled DODs, where the system is exposed to an external stimulus that induces an electronic transition within each subsystem. The results show that the introduction of external stimulus induces a quantum level crossing that relies upon the Coulomb potential changing the degree of quantum entanglement and coherence of the system. Thus, the quantum properties of the system can be tuned by changing the transition frequency, leading to the enhancement of its quantum properties.

Dynamics of Quantum Entanglement in Reservoir with Memory Effects

The non-Markovian dynamics of quantum entanglement is studied by the Shabani-Lidar master equation when one of entangled quantum systems is coupled to a local reservoir with memory effects.The completely positive reduced dynamical map can be constructed in the Kraus representation.Quantum entanglement decays more slowly in the non-Markovian environment.The decoherence time for quantum entanglement can be markedly increased with the change of the memory kernel.It is found out that the entanglement sudden death between quantum systems and entanglement sudden birth between the system and reservoir occur at different instants.     

Many-Agent Controlled Teleportation of Multi-qubit Quantum Information via Quantum Entanglement Swapping

We present a method to teleport multi-qubit quantum information in an easy way from a sender to a receiver via the control of many agents in a network. Only when all the agents collaborate with the quantum information receiver can the unknown states in the sender＇s qubits be fully reconstructed in the receiver＇s qubits. In our method, agents＇s control parameters are obtained via quantum entanglement swapping. As the realization of the many-agent controlled teleportation is concerned, compared to the recent method [G.P. Yang, et al., Phys. Rev. A 70 （2004） 022329], our present method considerably reduces the preparation difficulty of initial states and the identification difficulty of entangled states, moreover, it does not need local Hadamard operations and it is more feasible in technology.     

Property of Quantum Correlations with Correlated Noise

We analyze the classical and quantum correlation properties of the standard and so-called quasiclassical depolarizing channel with correlated noise and non-Markovian dephasing channel, specifically we use the quantum discord, entanglement, and measurement-induced disturbance （MID） to measure the quantum correlations. For the depolarizing channel, we find that the memory effect has more influence on the MID and quantum discord than entanglement. For the dephasing channel, we show that the non-Markovian dephasing channel is more robust than Markovian dephasing channel against deeoherence. We also find that at first MID and quantum discord take different values, and then after a specific time they will take almost the same value and both decay monotonically in the same way.

Multi-state Quantum Teleportation via One Entanglement State

A multi-sender-controlled quantum teleportation scheme is proposed to teleport several secret quantum states from different senders to a distance receiver based on only one Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen （EPR） pair with controlled-NOT （CNOT） gates. In the present scheme, several secret single-qubit quantum states are encoded into a multi-qubit entangled quantum state. Two communication modes, i.e., the detecting mode and the message mode, are employed so that the eavesdropping can be detected easily and the teleported message may be recovered efficiently. It has an advantage over teleporting several different quantum states for one scheme run with more efficiency than the previous quantum teleportation schemes.

Spatial Entanglement of Fermions in One-Dimensional Quantum Dots

The time-dependent quantum Monte Carlo method for fermions is introduced and applied in the calculation of the entanglement of electrons in one-dimensional quantum dots with several spin-polarized and spin-compensated electron configurations. The rich statistics of wave functions provided by this method allow one to build reduced density matrices for each electron, and to quantify the spatial entanglement using measures such as quantum entropy by treating the electrons as identical or distinguishable particles. Our results indicate that the spatial entanglement in parallel-spin configurations is rather small, and is determined mostly by the spatial quantum nonlocality introduced by the ground state. By contrast, in the spin-compensated case, the outermost opposite-spin electrons interact like bosons, which prevails their entanglement, while the inner-shell electrons remain largely at their Hartree–Fock geometry. Our findings are in close correspondence with the numerically exact results, wherever such comparison is possible.

Continuous-Variable Entanglement in Tunnel-Coupled Double Quantum Wells

This paper investigates the generation and evolution of continuous-variable entanglement in an asymmetric coupled-quantum well （CQW） system. Our numerical results show that this CQW system can be regarded as a source of macroscopic entangled light over a wide range of initial states of the cavity field. This investigation can be used for achieving the macroscopic entangled light in the CQW solid-state medium, which is much more praeticaJ than that in an atomic medium because of its flexible design and the controllable interference strength.     

Non-Markovian Effects on Entanglement Dynamics of Three Qubits

We investigate entanglement dynamics of three independent qubits each locally interacting with a zerotemperature non-Markovian reservoir. The effects of environment＇s amount of non-Markovianity or parameters in initial states on the three-qubit entanglement dynamics are presented in detail. It is found that the entanglement of such a system revives after a finite dark period when a proper degree of non-Markovian is present. A deep comparison to that in two-qubit system is also made.     

Entanglement and decoherence of coupled superconductor qubits in a non-Markovian environment

The sudden death of entanglement is investigated for the non-Markovian dynamic process of a pair of interacting flux qubits under a thermal bath. The results show that, for initially two-qubit entangled states, entanglement sudden death (ESD) always happens in the thermal reservoir, where its appearance strongly depends on the environment. In particular, ESD of the qubits occurs more easily for the non-Markovian process than for the Markovian one.     

Entanglement Preserving in Quantum Copying of Three-Qubit Entangled State

We study the degree to which quantum entanglement survives when a three-qubit entangled state iscopied by using local and non-local processes, respectively, and investigate iterating quantum copyingfor the three-qubitsystem. There may exist inter-three-qubit entanglement and inter-two-qubit entanglement for the three-qubit system.We show that both local and non-local copying processes degrade quantum entanglement in the three-particle systemdue to a residual correlation between the copied output and the copying machine. We also show that the inter-two-qubitentanglement is preserved better than the inter-three-qubit entanglement in the local cloning process. We find thatnon-local cloning is much more efficient than the local copying for broadcasting entanglement, and output state vianon-local cloning exhibits the fidelity better than local cloning.
