A minimum spanning tree( MST)-based quantum distribution algorithm( QDMST) is presented to construct the mesh backbone network. First, the articulation points are found,and for each connected block uncovered by the articulation points, the general centers are solved. Then, both articulation points and general centers are classified as backbone nodes and an M ST is formed. The quantum path between every two neighbor nodes on the MST is calculated. The nodes on these paths are also classified as backbone nodes. Simulation results validate the advantages of QDMST in the average backbone nodes number and average quantum channel distance compared to the existing random selection algorithm under multiple network scenarios.展开更多

For the antiferromagnet, increasing coupling strength or decreasing temperature under critical point increases the entanglement. Based on the thermal entanglement as quantum channel, entanglement and information of an input entangled state are transferred via partial teleportation. We find that the entanglement transferred will be lost du~ing the process, and for the entanglement fidelity the partial teleportation is superior to classical communication as concurrence of entangled channel beyond 1/4. We show that both correlation information in input entangled state and individual information of the teleported particle are linearly dissipated. With more entanglement in quantum channel, more entanglement and correlation information can be transferred.展开更多

The two cavity fields are both initially prepared in the coherent states, and the two two-level atoms are initially prepared in the singlet state |ψ^-〉 =(|eg〉 - |ge〉 ) / √2. We investigate the influence of the damping constant n, the intensity of the external sources F, and the relative difference of the atomic couplings r on the entanglement between the two atoms. In the dispersive approximation, we find that the entanglement between the two atoms decreases with the time evolution, and the decreasing rate of entanglement depends on the values of F/k, k/ω, and r. For the given small values of F/k and k/ω, on the one hand, the increasing of r favors entanglement decreasing of the atomic system, on the other hand, when r → 1 the entanglement decreasing becomes slower. With the increasing of the value of k/ω, the influence of r on the decreasing rate of entanglement becomes smaller, and gradually disappears for the big value of k/ω.展开更多

In the scheme each atom is resonantly coupled with the respective cavity mode and driven by a strong classical field. The detection of a photon decaying from the cavities and passing through a beam-splitter collapses the atoms to an entangled state. The required atom-field interaction time is very short and thus the decoherence effect is suppressed. Our scheme is within the reach of presently available cavity QED techniques.展开更多

The question is answered in this paper. First, we propose a quantum network coding protocol over a butterfly network with two hidden channels. Second, we investigate a more generaJ situation, where d-level quantum letters are transmitted through the network containing arbitrarily distributed hidden channels, and prove that quantum network coding on such networks is still achievable.展开更多

It is found that the entropy of the integrable dimer is periodic for weak coupling strength cl and small squeezing parameter r, and there exists a beat phenomenon for strong el and large r. Moreover, the entropy of the small molecules is quasi-periodic for small r, &nd the begt phenomenon occurs in the entropy evolution of the two molecules C2D2 and S02 for large r.
