Tuning mechanical behaviors of highly entangled hydrogels with the random distribution of mobile entanglements

Highly entangled hydrogels exhibit excellent mechanical properties,including high toughness,high stretchability,and low hysteresis.By considering the evolution of randomly distributed entanglements within the polymer network upon mechanical stretches,we develop a constitutive theory to describe the large stretch behaviors of these hydrogels.In the theory,we utilize a representative volume element(RVE)in the shape of a cube,within which there exists an averaged chain segment along each edge and a mobile entanglement at each corner.By employing an explicit method,we decouple the elasticity of the hydrogels from the sliding motion of their entanglements,and derive the stress-stretch relations for these hydrogels.The present theoretical analysis is in agreement with experiment,and highlights the significant influence of the entanglement distribution within the hydrogels on their elasticity.We also implement the present developed constitutive theory into a commercial finite element software,and the subsequent simulations demonstrate that the exact distribution of entanglements strongly affects the mechanical behaviors of the structures of these hydrogels.Overall,the present theory provides valuable insights into the deformation mechanism of highly entangled hydrogels,and can aid in the design of these hydrogels with enhanced performance.

Genuine entanglement under squeezed generalized amplitude damping channels with memory

We study genuine entanglement among three qubits undergoing a noisy process that includes dissipation, squeezing,and decoherence. We obtain a general solution and analyze the asymptotic quantum states. We find that most of these asymptotic states can be genuinely entangled depending upon the parameters of the channel, memory parameter, and the parameters of the initial states. We study Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger(GHZ) states and W states, mixed with white noise,and determine the conditions for them to be genuinely entangled at infinity. We find that for these mixtures, it is possible to start with a bi-separable state(with a specific mixture of white noise) and end with genuine entangled states. However, the memory parameter μ must be very high. We find that in contrast to the two-qubit case, none of the three-qubit asymptotic states for n → ∞ are genuinely entangled.

Quantum Computingvia Entanglement in Geometric Algebra Approach

The superiority of hypothetical quantum computers is not due to faster calculations but due to different scheme of calculations running on special hardware. At the same time, one should realize that quantum computers would only provide dramatic speedups for a few specific problems, for example, factoring integers and breaking cryptographic codes in the conventional quantum computing approach. The core of quantum computing follows the way a state of a quantum system is defined when basic things interact with each other. In the conventional approach, it is implemented through the tensor product of qubits. In the suggested geometric algebra formalism simultaneous availability of all the results for non-measured observables is based on the definition of states as points on a three-dimensional sphere, which is very different from the usual Hilbert space scheme.

Entanglement properties of GHZ and W superposition state and its decayed states

We use the generalized Wootters formula, the positive partial transpose(PPT) criterion and the matched entanglement witness, to detect entanglement of three-qubit GHZ and W superposition state and its decayed states. It shows that the results of the generalized Wootters formula in the part near the W state are tight. In the other parts, the PPT criterion is superior to the generalized Wootters formula. Furthermore, we investigate the relationship between entanglement and coherence.

Transformation relation between coherence and entanglement for two-qubit states

Entanglement and coherence are two important resources in quantum information theory. A question naturally arises:Is there some connection between them? We prove that the entanglement of formation and the first-order coherence of twoqubit states satisfy an inequality relation. Two-qubit pure state reaches the upper bound of this inequality. A large number of randomly generated states are used to intuitively verify the complementarity between the entanglement of formation and the first-order coherence. We give the maximum accessible coherence of two-qubit states. Our research results will provide a reliable theoretical basis for conversion of the two quantum resources.

Potential Power of the Pyramidal Structure VII: Effects of Pyramid Power and Bio-Entanglement on the Circadian Rhythm of Biosensors

We have demonstrated the existence of a pyramid power and have revealed its characteristics by strictly scientific experiments using biosensors. We also revealed the existence of a Bio-Entanglement, an entangled relationship between biosensors. A parallel study of biosensors (edible cucumber slices) had also been conducted, and we found that the circadian rhythm of gas concentrations emitted from biosensors changes seasonally. The pyramid power and Bio-Entanglement did not change the number of cycles in the periodic approximation curve representing circadian rhythm. Therefore, in this paper we analyzed the influence of the pyramid power and Bio-Entanglement, i.e., their influence on the phase, amplitude, and correlation coefficient of the periodic approximation curve representing the circadian rhythm of emitted gas concentrations. The main results are as follows. 1) The pyramid power shifted the phase of the periodic approximation curve representing the circadian rhythm by 43 minutes. 2) The amplitude of the periodic approximation curve changed with the pyramid power and the Bio-Entanglement. The effect on the lower and upper sections of the biosensors stacked in two layers was different, with a tendency to increase the amplitude of the lower layer and decrease the amplitude of the upper layer. 3) The pyramid power and the Bio-Entanglement affected the correlation coefficient between gas concentration and the periodic approximation curve representing the circadian rhythm of gas concentration. The effect on the lower and upper layers of the biosensors was different, with a tendency for the lower layer correlation coefficient to be larger and the upper layer correlation coefficient to be smaller. Previously we demonstrated that the pyramid power and the Bio-Entanglement affect the ratio of gas concentration, i.e., psi index Ψ. In this paper we demonstrate for the first time that the pyramid power and the Bio-Entanglement affect time, i.e., phase difference.

Algorithm for evaluating distance-based entanglement measures

Quantifying entanglement in quantum systems is an important yet challenging task due to its NP-hard nature.In this work,we propose an efficient algorithm for evaluating distance-based entanglement measures.Our approach builds on Gilbert's algorithm for convex optimization,providing a reliable upper bound on the entanglement of a given arbitrary state.We demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm by applying it to various examples,such as calculating the squared Bures metric of entanglement as well as the relative entropy of entanglement for GHZ states,W states,Horodecki states,and chessboard states.These results demonstrate that our algorithm is a versatile and accurate tool that can quickly provide reliable upper bounds for entanglement measures.

Parameterized monogamy and polygamy relations of multipartite entanglement

Monogamy and polygamy relations are important properties of entanglement,which characterize the entanglement distribution of multipartite systems.We explore monogamy and polygamy relations of entanglement in multipartite systems by using two newly derived parameterized mathematical inequalities,and establish classes of parameterized monogamy and polygamy relations of multiqubit entanglement in terms of concurrence and entanglement of formation.We show that these new parameterized monogamy and poelygamy inequalities are tighter than the existing ones by detailed examples.

Unified entropy entanglement with tighter constraints on multipartite systems

Monogamy and polygamy relations characterize the distributions of entanglement in multipartite systems.We provide a characterization of multiqubit entanglement constraints in terms of unified-(q,s)entropy.A class of tighter monogamy inequalities of multiqubit entanglement based on theα-th power of unified-(q,s)entanglement forα≥1 and a class of polygamy inequalities in terms of theβ-th power of unified-(q,s)entanglement of assistance are established in this paper.Our results present a general class of the monogamy and polygamy relations for bipartite entanglement measures based on unified-(q,s)entropy,which are tighter than the existing ones.What is more,some usual monogamy and polygamy relations,such as monogamy and polygamy relations based on entanglement of formation,Renyi-q entanglement of assistance and Tsallis-q entanglement of assistance,can be obtained from these results by choosing appropriate parameters(q,s)in unified-(q,s)entropy entanglement.Typical examples are also presented for illustration.

A New HARQ Scheme for 5G Systems via Interleaved Superposition Retransmission

Within the framework of the 5G new radio(NR),we propose a new hybrid automatic repeat request(HARQ)scheme to improve the throughput performance.The difference between the proposed scheme and the conventional one lies in the first retransmission,where the erroneous coded block group is interleaved and superimposed(XORed)onto a fresh coded block group.At the receiver,an iterative message-passing decoding algorithm can be employed to recover the target erroneous code block group(CBG).Only when the superposed retransmission fails,the conventional incremental redundancy(IR)or repetition redundancy(RR)retransmission is initiated.In any case,since the first retransmission is along with but has negligible effect on the fresh CBG,it costs neither transmitted power nor bandwidth.Monte-Carlo simulation results reveal that the presented HARQ schemes can achieve throughput improvements up to 10%over block fading channels and up to 50%over fast fading channels in comparison with the original 5G CBG-level HARQ scheme but without excessively increasing the implementation complexity.

Entanglement properties of superconducting qubits coupled to a semi-infinite transmission line

Quantum entanglement, a key resource in quantum information processing, is reduced by interaction between the quantum system concerned and its unavoidable noisy environment. Therefore it is of particular importance to study the dynamical properties of entanglement in open quantum systems. In this work, we mainly focus on two qubits coupled to an adjustable environment, namely a semi-infinite transmission line. The two qubits' relaxations, through individual channels or collective channel or both, can be adjusted by the qubits' transition frequencies. We examine entanglement dynamics in this model system with initial Werner state, and show that the phenomena of entanglement sudden death and revival can be observed. Due to the hardness of preparing the Werner state experimentally, we introduce a new type of entangled state called pseudo-Werner state, which preserves as much entangling property as the Werner state, and more importantly,it is experiment friendly. Furthermore, we provide detailed procedures for generating pseudo-Werner state and studying entanglement dynamics with it, which can be straightforwardly implemented in a superconducting waveguide quantum electrodynamics system.

First-order quantum phase transition and entanglement in the Jaynes-Cummings model with a squeezed light

We study the quantum phase transition and entanglement in the Jaynes-Cummings model with squeezed light,utilize a special transformation method to obtain the analytical ground state of the model within the near-resonance regime,and numerically verify the validity of the analytical ground state.It is found that the ground state exhibits a first-order quantum phase transition at the critical point linearly induced by squeezed light,and the ground state entanglement reaches its maximum when the qubit-field coupling strength is large enough at the critical point.

Superposition formulas of multi-solution to a reduced(3+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation

We gave the localized solutions,the interaction solutions and the mixed solutions to a reduced(3+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation.These solutions were characterized by superposition formulas of positive quadratic functions,the exponential and hyperbolic functions.According to the known lump solution in the outset,we obtained the superposition formulas of positive quadratic functions by plausible reasoning.Next,we constructed the interaction solutions between the localized solutions and the exponential function solutions with the similar theory.These two kinds of solutions contained superposition formulas of positive quadratic functions,which were turned into general ternary quadratic functions,the coefficients of which were all rational operation of vector inner product.Then we obtained linear superposition formulas of exponential and hyperbolic function solutions.Finally,for aforementioned various solutions,their dynamic properties were showed by choosing specific values for parameters.From concrete plots,we observed wave characteristics of three kinds of solutions.Especially,we could observe distinct generation and separation situations when the localized wave and the stripe wave interacted at different time points.

Extension of sound field reconstruction based on element radiation superposition method in a sparsity framework

Nearfield acoustic holography(NAH)is a powerful tool for realizing source identification and sound field reconstruction.The wave superposition(WS)-based NAH is appropriate for the spatially extended sources and does not require the complex numerical integrals.Equivalent source method(ESM),as a classical WS approach,is widely used due to its simplicity and efficiency.In the ESM,a virtual source surface is introduced,on which the virtual point sources are taken as the assumed sources,and an optimal retreat distance needs to be considered.A newly proposed WS-based approach,the element radiation superposition method(ERSM),uses piston surface source as the assumed source with no need to choose a virtual source surface.To satisfy the application conditions of piston pressure formula,the sizes of pistons are assumed to be as small as possible,which results in a large number of pistons and sampling points.In this paper,transfer matrix modes(TMMs),which are composed of the singular vectors of the vibro-acoustic transfer matrix,are used as the sparse basis of piston normal velocities.Then,the compressive ERSM based on TMMs is proposed.Compared with the conventional ERSM,the proposed method maintains a good pressure reconstruction when the number of sampling points and pistons are both reduced.Besides,the proposed method is compared with the compressive ESM in a mathematical sense.Both simulations and experiments for a rectangular plate demonstrate the advantage of the proposed method over the existing methods.

State transfer and entanglement between two-and four-level atoms in a cavity

Qudits with a large Hilbert space to host quantum information are widely utilized in various applications, such as quantum simulation and quantum computation, but the manipulation and scalability of qudits still face challenges. Here, we propose a scheme to directly and locally transfer quantum information from multiple atomic qubits to a single qudit and vice versa in an optical cavity. With the qubit–qudit interaction induced by the cavity, our scheme can transfer quantum states efficiently and measurement-independently. In addition, this scheme can robustly generate a high-dimensional maximal entangled state with asymmetric particle numbers, showing its potential in realizing an entanglement channel. Such an information interface for qubits and qudit may have enlightening significance for future research on quantum systems in hybrid dimensions.

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.

Information Field and Physical Noise Generator Entanglement

In experiments with physical noise generators based on electronic or photonic quantum events, significant deviations from random distributions have been repeatedly observed. To explain these effects, intention-based interactions between consciousness and mind with physical random processes have been suggested, either being caused by individual minds or by a proposed global mind. As these explanations involve physically undefined objects such as “mind” and “consciousness”, an explanatory model based on the concept of an information field is given herein, based on the concept of generalized quantum entanglement, including the entanglement of physical noise processes with information fields and an analogy to quantum teleportation. In addition, the non-random hypothesis of using such a physical noise generator in capturing qualitative characteristics of individuals is tested in a randomized controlled study with 100 participants.

A Quantum Tanimoto Coefficient Fidelity for Entanglement Measurement

Fidelity plays an important role in quantum information processing,which provides a basic scale for comparing two quantum states.At present,one of the most commonly used fidelities is Uhlmann-Jozsa(U-J)fidelity.However,U-J fidelity needs to calculate the square root of the matrix,which is not trivial in the case of large or infinite density matrices.Moreover,U-J fidelity is a measure of overlap,which has limitations in some cases and cannot reflect the similarity between quantum states well.Therefore,a novel quantum fidelity measure called quantum Tanimoto coefficient(QTC)fidelity is proposed in this paper.Unlike other existing fidelities,QTC fidelity not only considers the overlap between quantum states,but also takes into account the separation between quantum states for the first time,which leads to a better performance of measure.Specifically,we discuss the properties of the proposed QTC fidelity.QTC fidelity is compared with some existing fidelities through specific examples,which reflects the effectiveness and advantages of QTC fidelity.In addition,based on the QTC fidelity,three discrimination coefficients d_(1)^(QTC),d_(2)^(QTC),and d_^(3)^(QTC)are defined to measure the difference between quantum states.It is proved that the discrimination coefficient d_(3)^(QTC)is a true metric.Finally,we apply the proposed QTC fidelity-based discrimination coefficients to measure the entanglement of quantum states to show their practicability.
