Entanglement Evolution of Two-Coupled Spins in a Time-Dependent Rotating Magnetic Field

We study the dynamics evolution of a two-qubit Heisenberg XXX spin chain under a time-dependent rotating magnetic field. Based on the algebraic structure of the non-autonomous system, the exact solution of the Schrodinger equation is obtained by using the method of algebraic dynamics. Based on the time-dependent analytical solution, we further study the entanglement evolution between the two coupled spins for different initial states, and find that the entanglement is determined by the coefficients of the initial state and the coupling constant J of the system.

Entanglement evolution of three-qubit mixed states in multipartite cavity-reservoir systems

We analyze the multipartite entanglement evolution of three-qubit mixed states composed of a GHZ state and a W state. For a composite system consisting of three cavities interacting with independent reservoirs, it is shown that the entanglement evolution is restricted by a set of monogamy relations. Furthermore, as quantified by the negativity, the entanglement dynamical property of the mixed entangled state of cavity photons is investigated. It is found that the three cavity photons can exhibit the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death （ESD）. However, compared with the evolution of a generalized three-qubit GHZ state which has the equal initial entanglement, the ESD time of mixed states is later than that of the pure state. Finally, we discuss the entanglement distribution in the multipartite system, and point out the intrinsic relation between the ESD of cavity photons and the entanglement sudden birth of reservoirs.

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 cosθ｜00〉 ＋ sinθ ｜11〉 and cos Ф ｜01〉 ＋ sin Ф10〉 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 Ф ｜01〉 sinФ｜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.

Entanglement Evolution of a 2-Qutrit System Interacting with a Fermionic Bath

Based on the algebraic entanglement measure proposed [G. Vidal et al., Phys. Rev. A 65 (2002) 032314],we study the entanglement evolution of both pure quantum states and mixed ones of 2-qutrit system in a symmetrybroken environment consisting of a fermionic bath. Entanglement of states will decrease or remain constant under the influence of environment, and the class of states which remain unchanged has been found out.

Entanglement evolution and transfer in a double Tavis-Cumming model in cavity QED

We have studied entanglement evolution and transfer in a double Tavis-Cumming model where two pairs of entangled two-level atoms AB and CD interact with two single-mode cavity fields a and b. We show that the Bellwlike initial state of atoms AB can exhibit entanglement sudden death which should be independent of the initial entanglement of atoms CD. Also, we show that the initial entanglement of one atomic pair can be transferred into another pair, as well as the possible subsystems, that become entangled during evolution.

Entanglement Evolution of Three-Qubit States under Local Decoherence

By using negativity as entanglement measure,we have investigated the effect of local decoherence from anon-Markovian environment on the time evolution of entanglement of three-qubit states including the GHZ state,the Wstate,and the Werner state.From the results,we find that the entanglement dynamics depends not only on the couplingstrengths but also on the specific states of concern.Specifically,the entanglement takes different behaviors under weakor strong coupling and it varies with the quantum states under study.The entanglement of the GHZ state and theWerner state can be destroyed completely by the local decoherence,while the entanglement of the W state can survivethrough the local decoherence partially.

Effects of inhomogeneous couplings between atoms and a cavity field on entanglement dynamics

Based on the concept of concurrence, we have investigated the entanglement dynamics of two two-level atoms coupled to a single-mode cavity field with inhomogeneous couplings. We find that, for some initial states, the inho- mogeneous couplings not only induce but also enhance the entanglement in the process of its evolution. In addition, considering the intrinsic decoherence proposed by Milburn, we also find that a proper value of inhomogeneous couplings can enhance the stationary entanglement, and as a result, the destructive effect of intrinsic decoherence on entanglement can be moderated by the inhomogeneous couplings.

Structure formation of entanglement entropy in a system of two superconducting qubits coupled with an LC-resonator

This paper investigates theoretically the evolutions of the entanglement entropy of a system of two coupled-charge- qubits interacting with an LC-resonator. It is found that when the initial states of the two qubits are prepared in a given superposition excited state, the evolution of the von Neumann entropy of the system depends significantly on the coupling strength between the two Josephson charge qubits. With the variation of the coupling strength, the evolution of the entanglement entropy of the system forms some structures, especially the periodically bistable properties, which are the first discovered for such a system to our knowledge. It is found that the relative entropy entanglement of the system is also sensitive to the variation of the coupling strength between the two charge qubits, some novel ＇collective oscillations＇ of the relative entropy are found for the system.

Effect of Intrinsic Decoherence of Milburn's Model on Entanglement of Two-Qutrit States

We model of intrinsic analyze the time evolution of entanglement of two-qutrit system within the framework of Milburn＇s decoherence. The entanglement evolution relies not only on the parameters of system, but also on the concrete states either pure or mixed. The linear entropy used to measure the extent to which the intrinsic decoherenee affects quantum states is evaluated.
