Multiple Entropy Measures for Multi-particle Pure Quantum Statet

We propose to use a set of averaged entropies, the multiple entropy measures （MEMS）, to partially quantify quantum entanglement of multipartite quantum state. The MEMS is vector-like with m = [N/2] components： [S1, S2,..., Sm], and the i-th component Si is the geometric mean of i-qubits partial entropy of the system. The Si measures how strong an arbitrary i qubits from the system are correlated with the rest of the system. It satisfies the conditions for a good entanglement measure. We have analyzed the entanglement properties of the GHZ-state, the W-states, and cluster-states under MEMS.     

Extremal Entangled Four-Qubit Pure States with Respect to Multiple Entropy Measures

Entanglement Entropy Signature of Quantum Phase Transitions in a Multiple Spin Interactions Model

Through the Jordan-Wigner transformation, the entanglement entropy and ground state phase diagrams of exactly solvable spin model with alternating and multiple spin exchange interactions are investigated by means of Green's function theory. In the absence of four-spin interactions, the ground state presents plentiful quantum phases due to the multiple spin interactions and magnetic fields. It is shown that the two-site entanglement entropy is a good indicator of quantum phase transition (QPT). In addition, the alternating interactions can destroy the magnetization plateau and wash out the spin-gap of low-lying excitations. However, in the presence of four-spin interactions, apart from the second order QPTs, the system manifests the first order QPT at the tricritical point and an additional new phase called ``spin waves', which is due to the collapse of the continuous tower-like low-lying excitations modulated by the four-spin interactions for large three-spin couplings.     

Entropy product measure for multipartite pure states

An entanglement measure for multipartite pure states is formulated using the product of the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density matrices of the constituents. Based on this new measure, all possible ways of the maximal entanglement of the triqubit pure states are studied in detail and all types of the maximal entanglement have been compared with the result of ‘the average entropy’. The new measure can be used to calculate the degree of entanglement, and an improvement is given in the area near the zero entropy.     

Quantum Generalized Measurement and Deterministic Generation of Maximum Entangled Pure State

We propose the concept of the quantum generalized projector measurcment (QGPM) for finite-dimensional quantum systems by studying the quantum generalized measurement. This research reveals a distinguished property of this quantum generalized measurement: no matter what the system state is prior to the measurement and what the result of the measurement occurs, the state of the system after the measurement can be collapsed into any specified pure state, i.e., the state of quantum system can be deterministically reduced to any specified pure state just by a single QGPM. Subsequently, QGPM can be used to deterministically generate the maximum entangled pure state for quantum systems. We give three concrete theoretic schemes of generating the maximum quantum entangled pure stazes for two 2-level particles, three 2-level particles and two 3-level particles, respectively.

Unitarity as Preservation of Entropy and Entanglement in Quantum Systems

The logical structure of Quantum Mechanics (QM) and its relation to other fundamental principles of Nature has been for decades a subject of intensive research. In particular, the question whether the dynamical axiom of QM can be derived from other principles has been often considered. In this contribution, we show that unitary evolutions arise as a consequences of demanding preservation of entropy in the evolution of a single pure quantum system, and preservation of entanglement in the evolution of composite quantum systems. ⁶ We would also like to dedicate this work to the memory of Asher Peres, whose contributions and sharp comments guided the first steps of the present article.     

Probabilistic Teleportation of Multi-particle d-Level Quantum State

The general scheme for teleportation of a multi-particle d-level quantum state is presented when m pairs of partially entangled particles are utilized as quantum channels. The probabilistic teleportation can be achieved with a successful probability of $ \prod \limits_{N=0}^{d-1} ({C_0^N})^2/{d^M}$, which is determined by the smallest coefficients of each entangled channels.     

Perfect Biparticle Teleportation by Using Multi-particle Quantum Channel with Joint Measurement

In this paper, we reinvestigate the faithful quantum teleportation of an arbitrary two-qubit state by a multi-particle channel with multi-particle joint measurements. The relationship between multi-particle quantum channel and the multi-particle joint measurement bases has been found. In addition, we show how to construct the multi-particle joint measurement bases.     

On Quantum Entropy

Quantum physics, despite its intrinsically probabilistic nature, lacks a definition of entropy fully accounting for the randomness of a quantum state. For example, von Neumann entropy quantifies only the incomplete specification of a quantum state and does not quantify the probabilistic distribution of its observables; it trivially vanishes for pure quantum states. We propose a quantum entropy that quantifies the randomness of a pure quantum state via a conjugate pair of observables/operators forming the quantum phase space. The entropy is dimensionless, it is a relativistic scalar, it is invariant under canonical transformations and under CPT transformations, and its minimum has been established by the entropic uncertainty principle. We expand the entropy to also include mixed states. We show that the entropy is monotonically increasing during a time evolution of coherent states under a Dirac Hamiltonian. However, in a mathematical scenario, when two fermions come closer to each other, each evolving as a coherent state, the total system’s entropy oscillates due to the increasing spatial entanglement. We hypothesize an entropy law governing physical systems whereby the entropy of a closed system never decreases, implying a time arrow for particle physics. We then explore the possibility that as the oscillations of the entropy must by the law be barred in quantum physics, potential entropy oscillations trigger annihilation and creation of particles.     

Entropy of Field Interacting With Two Atoms in Bell State

In this paper, we investigate entropy properties of the single-mode coherent optical field interacting with the two two-level atoms initially in one of the four Bell states. It is found that the different initial states of the two atoms lead to different evolutions of field entropy and the intensity of the field plays an important role for the evolution properties of field entropy.     

Alternative Entropy Measures and Generalized Khinchin–Shannon Inequalities

The Khinchin–Shannon generalized inequalities for entropy measures in Information Theory, are a paradigm which can be used to test the Synergy of the distributions of probabilities of occurrence in physical systems. The rich algebraic structure associated with the introduction of escort probabilities seems to be essential for deriving these inequalities for the two-parameter Sharma–Mittal set of entropy measures. We also emphasize the derivation of these inequalities for the special cases of one-parameter Havrda–Charvat’s, Rényi’s and Landsberg–Vedral’s entropy measures.

Switching and Swapping of Quantum Information: Entropy and Entanglement Level

Information switching and swapping seem to be fundamental elements of quantum communication protocols. Another crucial issue is the presence of entanglement and its level in inspected quantum systems. In this article, a formal definition of the operation of the swapping local quantum information and its existence proof, together with some elementary properties analysed through the prism of the concept of the entropy, are presented. As an example of the local information swapping usage, we demonstrate a certain realisation of the quantum switch. Entanglement levels, during the work of the switch, are calculated with the Negativity measure and a separability criterion based on the von Neumann entropy, spectral decomposition and Schmidt decomposition. Results of numerical experiments, during which the entanglement levels are estimated for systems under consideration with and without distortions, are presented. The noise is generated by the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and the intrinsic decoherence is modelled by the Milburn equation. This work contains a switch realisation in a circuit form—built out of elementary quantum gates, and a scheme of the circuit which estimates levels of entanglement during the switch’s operating.     

Entanglement Entropy of Reissner-Nordström Black Hole and Quantum Isolated Horizon

Based on the work of Ghosh and Pereze, who view the black hole entropy as the logarithm of the number of quantum states on the Quantum Isolated Horizon (QIH)^§ the entropy of Reissner-Nordström black hole is studied. According to the Unruh temperature, the statistical entropy of quantum fields under the background of Reissner-Nordström spacetime is calculated by means of quantum statistics. In the calculations we take the integral from the position of QIH to infinity, so the obtained entropy is the entanglement entropy outside the QIH. In Reissner-Nordström spacetime it is shown that if only the position of QIH is properly chosen the leading term of logarithm of the number of quantum states on the QIH is equal to the leading term of the entanglement entropy outside the black hole horizon, and both are the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. The results reveal the relation between the entanglement entropy of black hole and the logarithm of the number of quantum states.
