Single-photon scattering and quantum entanglement of two giant atoms with azimuthal angle differences in a waveguide system

We theoretically investigate coherent scattering of single photons and quantum entanglement of two giant atoms with azimuthal angle differences in a waveguide system.Using the real-space Hamiltonian,analytical expressions are derived for the transport spectra scattered by these two giant atoms with four azimuthal angles.Fano-like resonance can be exhibited in the scattering spectra by adjusting the azimuthal angle difference.High concurrence of the entangled state for two atoms can be implemented in a wide angle-difference range,and the entanglement of the atomic states can be switched on/off by modulating the additional azimuthal angle differences from the giant atoms.This suggests a novel handle to effectively control the single-photon scattering and quantum entanglement.

Structural Foundation and Geometry of the Material Singularity (and Its Quantum Entanglement)

In this paper we develop and study, as the second part of one more general development, the energy transmutation equation for the material singularity, previously obtained through the symmetrisation of a wave packet, that is, we develop the correlation between the terms of this equation, which accounts for the formation of matter from a previous vibrational state, and the different possible energy species. These energetic species are ascribed, in a simplified form, to the equation E¯ω=E¯k+E¯f, which allows us, through its associated phase factor, to gain an insight into the wave character of the kinetic energy and thus to attain the basis of the matter-wave, and all sorts of related phenomenologies, including that concerning quantum entanglement. The formation of the matter was previously identified as an energetic process, analogous to the kinetic one, in which finally the inertial mass is consolidated as a mass in a different phase, now, in addition, the mass of the material singularity is identified as a volumetric density of waves of toroidal geometry created in the process of singularisation or energy transfer between species, which makes it possible to establish the real relation or correspondence between the corpuscular and photonic energy equation (E=mc2=hν), i.e. to explain through m the intimate sense of the first equivalence, which explains what νis in the second one.

Effects of quantum quench on entanglement dynamics in antiferromagnetic Ising model

We study the relationship between quench dynamics of entanglement and quantum phase transition in the antiferromagnetic Ising model with the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya(DM)interaction by using the quantum renormalization-group method and the definition of negativity.Two types of quench protocols(i)adding the DM interaction suddenly and(ii)rotating the spins around x axis are considered to drive the dynamics of the system,respectively.By comparing the behaviors of entanglement in both types of quench protocols,the effects of quench on dynamics of entanglement are studied.It is found that there is the same characteristic time at which the negativity firstly reaches its maximum although the system shows different dynamical behaviors.Especially,the characteristic time can accurately reflect the quantum phase transition from antiferromagnetic to saturated chiral phases in the system.In addition,the correlation length exponent can be obtained by exploring the nonanalytic and scaling behaviors of the derivative of the characteristic time.

Entanglement and thermalization in the extended Bose–Hubbard model after a quantum quench: A correlation analysis

Exploring the role of entanglement in quantum nonequilibrium dynamics is important to understand the mechanism of thermalization in an isolated system. We study the relaxation dynamics in a one-dimensional extended Bose–Hubbard model after a global interaction quench by considering several observables: the local Boson numbers, the nonlocal entanglement entropy, and the momentum distribution functions. We calculate the thermalization fidelity for different quench parameters and different sizes of subsystems, and the results show that the degree of thermalization is affected by the distance from the integrable point and the size of the subsystem. We employ the Pearson coefficient as the measurement of the correlation between the entanglement entropy and thermalization fidelity, and a strong correlation is demonstrated for the quenched system.

Nonreciprocal mechanical entanglement in a spinning optomechanical system

Quantum entanglement between distant massive mechanical oscillators is an important resource in sensitive measurements and quantum information processing.We achieve the nonreciprocal mechanical entanglement in a compound optomechanical device consisting of two mechanical oscillators and a spinning whispering-gallery mode(WGM)optical microresonator.It is found that obvious nonreciprocal mechanical entanglement emerges in this system in the presence of the Sagnac effect which is induced by the rotation of the WGM resonator,and the nonreciprocal region can be controlled by tuning the angular velocity of the rotation.The nonreciprocity originates from the breaking of the time-reversal symmetry of this multimode system due to the presence of the Sagnac effect.The optomechanical coupling and the mechanical interaction provide cooling channels for the first and second mechanical oscillators,respectively.Two mechanical oscillators can be cooled simultaneously.The simultaneous cooling and the mechanical coupling of two mechanical oscillators ensure the generation of mechanical entanglement.Furthermore,an optimal mechanical entanglement can be achieved when the moderate optical frequency detuning and the driving power are chosen.The thermal noise of the mechanical environment has a negative effect on mechanical entanglement.Our scheme provides promising opportunities for research of quantum information processing based on phonons and sensitive measurements.

Detecting the quantum phase transition from the perspective of quantum information in the Aubry–André model

We investigate the effectiveness of entropic uncertainty, entanglement and steering in discerning quantum phase transitions(QPTs). Specifically, we observe significant fluctuations in entropic uncertainty as the driving parameter traverses the phase transition point. It is observed that the entropic uncertainty, entanglement and quantum steering, based on the electron distribution probability, can serve as indicators for detecting QPTs. Notably, we reveal an intriguing anticorrelation relationship between entropic uncertainty and entanglement in the Aubry–André model. Moreover, we explore the feasibility of detecting a QPT when the period parameter is a rational number. These observations open up new and efficient avenues for probing QPTs.

Design and Implementation of Quantum Repeaters:Insights on Quantum Entanglement Purification

Quantum communication is a groundbreaking technology that is driving the future of information transmission and communication technologies to a new paradigm.It relies on quantum entanglement to facilitate the transmission of quantum states between parties.Quantum repeaters are crucial for facilitating long-distance quantum communication.These quantum devices act as intermediaries between adjacent communication channel segments within a fragmented quantum network,allowing for entanglement swapping between the channel segments.This entanglement swapping process establishes entanglement links between the endpoints of adjacent segments,gradually creating a continuous entanglement connection over the entire length of the transmission channel.The established quantum link can be utilized for secure and efficient quantum communication between distant sender and receiver nodes.This study focuses on quantum entanglement purification,a protocol aimed at maintaining high fidelity entangled states above the operational threshold of the communication channel.This study investigates the optimal stage for executing the purification protocol and applies optimization schemes to evaluate various purification protocols.We use IBM Qiskit for circuit implementation and simulation.The results offer valuable insights into future approaches to implementing practical quantum repeaters and shed light on existing and anticipated challenges.

Delayed-measurement one-way quantum computing on cloud quantum computer

One-way quantum computation focuses on initially generating an entangled cluster state followed by a sequence of measurements with classical communication of their individual outcomes.Recently,a delayed-measurement approach has been applied to replace classical communication of individual measurement outcomes.In this work,by considering the delayed-measurement approach,we demonstrate a modified one-way CNOT gate using the on-cloud superconducting quantum computing platform:Quafu.The modified protocol for one-way quantum computing requires only three qubits rather than the four used in the standard protocol.Since this modified cluster state decreases the number of physical qubits required to implement one-way computation,both the scalability and complexity of the computing process are improved.Compared to previous work,this modified one-way CNOT gate is superior to the standard one in both fidelity and resource requirements.We have also numerically compared the behavior of standard and modified methods in large-scale one-way quantum computing.Our results suggest that in a noisy intermediate-scale quantum(NISQ)era,the modified method shows a significant advantage for one-way quantum computation.

Generation of macroscopic entanglement in ensemble systems based on silicon vacancy centers

Entanglement in macroscopic systems,as a fundamental quantum resource,has been utilized to propel the advancement of quantum technology and probe the boundary between the quantum and classical realms.This study focuses on a unique hybrid quantum system comprising of an ensemble of silicon vacancy(SiV)centers coupled to phononic waveguides in diamond via strain interactions.By employing two sets of time-dependent,non-overlapping driving fields,we investigate the generation process and dynamic properties of macroscopic quantum entanglement,providing fresh insights into the behavior of such hybrid quantum systems.Furthermore,it paves the way for new possibilities in utilizing quantum entanglement as an information carrier in quantum information processing and quantum communication.

Quantum Entanglement Could Be the Result of Leptons, Quarks and Photons Simultaneously Experiencing 4-D Space as (3 + 1)-D Spacetime

We propose that quantum entanglement occurs because the fundamental particles, such as electrons, quarks, and photons, simultaneously experience both the 4th real spatial dimension in R4 as well as the time dimension in (3 + 1)-D spacetime. Consequently, the entangled particles can never become separated in the 4th spatial dimension no matter how far they have moved apart in the other 3 spatial dimensions. Because the quark and lepton families represent specific different discrete symmetry binary subgroups of SU(2), we can establish that the quantum states of the fundamental particles are defined in 4 spatial dimensions, so there is then no need for a spacetime communication from one detector (or particle) to inform the other detector (or particle) of the physical state of the first detected entangled particle. A clever experiment needs to determine whether the fundamental particles actually experience a 4th spatial dimension, and if so, whether they experience the 4th spatial dimension as the time dimension simultaneously. Apparently, if a Casimir-like test reveals that virtual particles have a non-zero mass, there are claims that a 4th spatial dimension does not exist.

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.

Quantum entanglement in the system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field

The entanglement properties of the system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field are explored. The quantum entanglement between two two-level atoms and a single-mode vacuum field is investigated by using the quantum reduced entropy; the quantum entanglement between two two-level atoms, and that between a single two-level atom and a single-mode vacuum field are studied in terms of the quantum relative entropy. The influences of the atomic dipole-dipole interaction on the quantum entanglement of the system are also discussed. Our results show that three entangled states of two atoms-field, atom-atom, and atom-field can be prepared via two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field.

Protecting the entanglement of two-qubit over quantum channels with memory via weak measurement and quantum measurement reversal

Based on the quantum technique of the weak measurement and quantum measurement reversal(WMR),we propose a scheme to protect entanglement for an entangled two-qubit pure state from four typical quantum noise channels with memory,i.e.,the amplitude damping channel,the phase damping channel,the bit flip channel,and the depolarizing channel.For a given initial state |Ψ>=a |00>+d|11>,it is found that the WMR operation indeed helps to protect entanglement from the above four quantum channels with memory,and the protection effect of WMR scheme is better when the coefficient a is small.For the other initial state |φ>=b|01>+c|10>,the effect of the protection scheme is the same regardless of the coefficient b and the WMR operation can protect entanglement in the amplitude damping channel with memory.Moreover,the protection of entanglement in quantum noise channels without memory in contrast to the results of the channels with memory is more effective.For |Ψ> or |φ>,we also find that the memory parameters play a significant role in the suppression of entanglement sudden death and the initial entanglement can be drastically amplified.Another more important result is that the relationship between the concurrence,the memory parameter,the weak measurement strength,and quantum measurement reversal strength is found through calculation and discussion.It provides a strong basis for the system to maintain maximum entanglement in the nosie channel.

Generation of the nonlocal quantum entanglement of three three-level particles by local operations

We propose a scheme to realize the nonlocal quantum entanglement of three three-level particles by using a threeparticle entangled state of three levels as a quantum channel with the aid of some local unitary transformations. This scheme can be directly generalized to the nonlocal quantum entanglement of N three-level particles.

Partially secret broadcasting,partially secret splitting with quantum entanglement

In this paper, we propose a classical secret broadcasting and splitting joint protocol in a quantum scenario. With those genuinely entangled states, the boss can always broadcast some of his secrets and split some others to multi- receivers at the same time. The efficiency of the joint protocol is also compared with that of two separate ones which realise classical secret broadcasting and classical secret splitting respectively, and based on the comparison we can see the promising advantage of our joint protocol is that it can realise the two tasks more efficiently and more conveniently.

Quantum speed limit time and entanglement in a non-Markovian evolution of spin qubits of coupled quantum dots

Quantum speed limit time and entanglement in a system composed of coupled quantum dots are investigated.The excess electron spin in each quantum dot constitutes the physical system(qubit).Also the spin interaction is modeled through the Heisenberg model and the spins are imposed by an external magnetic field.Taking into account the spin relaxation as a non-Markovian process,the quantum speed limit and entanglement evolution are discussed.Our findings reveal that increasing the magnetic field leads to the faster quantum evolution.In addition,the temperature increment causes the longer quantum speed limit time as well as the entanglement degradation.

Reversion of weak-measured quantum entanglement state

We theoretically study the reversible process of quantum entanglement state by means of weak measurement and corresponding reversible operation.We present a protocol of the reversion operation in two bodies based on the theory of reversion of single photon and then expend it in quantum communication channels.The theoretical results demonstrate that the protocol does not break the information transmission after a weak measurement and a reversible measurement with the subsequent process in the transmission path.It can reverse the perturbed entanglement intensity evolution to its original state.Under the condition of different weak measurement intensity the protocol can reverse the perturbed quantum entanglement system perfectly.In the process we can get the classical information described by information gain from the quantum system through weak measurement operation.On the other hand,in order to realize complete reversibility,the classical information of the quantum entanglement system must obey a limited range we present in this paper in the reverse process.

Quantum entanglement and quantum nonlocality for N-photon entangled states

Quantum entanglement and quantum nonlocality of N-photon entangled states ｜ψNm） m Cm [cos γ｜N - m） 1 ｜m）2 ＋ e^iθm sinγ｜m）1｜N- m）2] and their superpositions are studied. We point out that the relative phase θm affects the quantum nonlocality but not the quantum entanglement for the state ｜ψNm）. We show that quantum nonlocality can be controlled and manipulated by adjusting the state parameters of ｜ψNm）, superposition coefficients, and the azimuthal angles of the Bell operator. We also show that the violation of the Bell inequality can reach its maximal value under certain conditions. It is found that quantum superpositions based on ｜ψNm） can increase the amount of entanglement, and give more ways to reach the maximal violation of the Bell inequality.

Conservation issue of pairwise quantum discord and entanglement of two coupled qubits in a two-mode vacuum cavity

The conservation issues of pairwise quantum discord and entanglement of two qubits coupled to a two-mode vacuum cavity are investigated by considering the dipole^tipole interaction between two qubits. It is found that the sum of the square of the pairwise quantum discords and the sum of the square of the pairwise concurrences are both conserved in the strong dipole-dipole interaction limit. However, in the middle dipole-dipole and weak dipole-dipole interaction limits, the sum of the square of the pairwise concurrences is still conserved while the sum of the square of the pairwise discords is not. The crucial reason for this is that the quantum discords are not equivalent if the measurements are performed on different subsystems in a general situation. So it is very important for quantum computation depending on the quantum discord to select the target performed by the measurements.

Quantum Teleportation of One-to-Many Using （n ＋ 1）-Particle Entanglement

In this paper, quantum teleportatlon of one-to-many using （n ＋1）-particle entanglement is presented. If the sender （Alice） wants to transmit an unknown quantum state to a distant receiver （Bob）, similar to the previous schemes, Alice performs Bell-state measurement on particles belonging to herself and informs the receiver the results through the classical channel. After that, it needs to perform the Hadamard operation on the other （n - 1） particles and measure them as well. With the aid of the measurement results, Bob can operate a corresponding unitary transformation on his particle to reconstruct the original state. Of course, the reconstruction may realize at either location of n, but it cannot realize at all locations at the same time.
