Quantum coherence and entanglement under the influence of decoherence

In this work, we delve into the dynamic traits of the relative entropy of quantum coherence (REQC) as the quantum system interacts with the different noisy channels, drawing comparisons with entanglement (concurrence). The research results demonstrate the broader prevalence and stronger robustness of the REQC as opposed to concurrence. It's worth noting that the bit flip channel cannot uphold a constant nonzero frozen the REQC, besides, the concurrence follows a pattern of temporary reduction to zero, followed by recovery after a certain time span. More importantly, the REQC maintains its presence consistently until reaching a critical threshold, whereas concurrence experiences completely attenuation to zero under the influence of phase damping and amplitude damping channels.

Universal trade-off relation between coherence and intrinsic concurrence for two-qubit states

Entanglement and coherence are two essential quantum resources for quantum information processing. A natural question arises of whether there are direct link between them. And by thinking about this question, we propose a new measure for quantum state that contains concurrence and is called intrinsic concurrence. Interestingly, we discover that the intrinsic concurrence is always complementary to coherence. Note that the intrinsic concurrence is related to the concurrence of a special pure state ensemble. In order to explain the trade-off relation more intuitively, we apply it in some composite systems composed by a single-qubit state coupling four typical noise channels with the aim at illustrating their mutual transformation relationship between their coherence and intrinsic concurrence. This unified trade-off relation will provide more flexibility in exploiting one resource to perform quantum tasks and also provide credible theoretical basis for the interconversion of the two important quantum resources.

The intrinsic relations of quantum resources in multiparticle systems

Quantum resources play crucial roles for displaying superiority in many quantum communication and computation tasks. To reveal the intrinsic relations hidden in these quantum resources, many efforts have been made in recent years. In this work, we investigate the correlations of the tripartite W-type states based on bipartite quantum resources. The interrelations among the degree of coherence, concurrence, Bell nonlocality and purity are presented. Considering Bell nonlocal and Bell local (satisfied the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality) states for the two-qubit subsystems derived from the tripartite W-type states, we find exact lower and upper boundaries of the degree of coherence versus concurrence. Interestingly, exact relation among the degree of coherence, concurrence and purity is obtained. Moreover, coherence is also closely related to entanglement in two specific scenarios: the tripartite W-type state under decoherence and a practical system for a renormalized spin-1/2 chain.

Effects of Hawking radiation on the entropic uncertainty in a Schwarzschild space-time

Heisenberg uncertainty principle describes a basic restriction on observer's ability of precisely predicting the measurement for a pair of non-commuting observables, and virtually is at the core of quantum mechanics. We herein aim to study entropic uncertainty relation under the background of the Schwarzschild black hole and its control. Explicitly, we develop dynamical features of the measuring uncertainty via entropy in a practical model where a stationary particle interacts with its surrounding environment while another particle --- serving as a quantum memory reservoir --- undergoes freefall in the vicinity of the event horizon of the Schwarzschild space-time. It shows higher Hawking temperatures would give rise to an inflation of the entropic uncertainty on the measured particle. This is suggestive the measurement uncertainty is strongly correlated with degree of mixing present in the evolving particles. Additionally, based on information flow theory, we provide a physical interpretation for the observed dynamical behaviors related with the entropic uncertainty in such a realistic scenario. Finally, an efficient strategy is proposed to reduce the uncertainty by non-tracing-preserved operations. Therefore, our explorations may improve the understanding of the dynamic entropic uncertainty in a curved space-time, and illustrate predictions of quantum measurements in relativistic quantum information sciences.

Dynamics and recovery of genuine multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering and genuine multipartite nonlocality for a dissipative Dirac system via Unruh effect

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics behaviors of genuine multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering (GMS) and genuine multipartite nonlocality (GMN), and explore how to recover the lost GMS and GMN under a mixed decoherence system. Explicitly, the decoherence system can be modeled by that a tripartite Werner-type state suffers from the non-Markovian regimes and one subsystem of the tripartite is under a non-inertial frame. The conditions for steerable and nonlocal states can be obtained with respect to the tripartite Werner-type state established initially. GMS and GMN are very fragile and vulnerable under the influence of the collective decoherence. GMS and GMN will vanish with growing intensity of the Unruh effect and the non-Markovian reservoir. Besides, all achievable GMN's states are steerable, while not every steerable state (GMS's state) can achieve nonlocality. It means that the steering-nonlocality hierarchy is still tenable and GMN's states are a strict subset of the GMS's states in such a scenario. Subsequently, we put forward an available methodology to recover the damaged GMS and GMN. It turns out that the lost GMS and GMN can be effectively restored, and the ability of GMS and GMN to suppress the collective decoherence can be enhanced.

The enhancement of quantum entanglement under an open Dirac system with Hawking effect in Schwarzschild space-time

In this letter, we mainly investigate how to enhance the damaged quantum entanglement under an open Dirac system with Hawking effect within Schwarzschild space-time. We consider that particle A hold by Alice undergoes generalized amplitude damping noise in a flat space-time and another particle B by Bob entangled with A is under a Schwarzschild space-time. Subsequently, we put forward a physical scheme to recover the damaged quantum entanglement by prior weak measurement on subsystem A before the interaction with the decoherence noise followed by post-measurement filtering operation. The results indicate that our scheme can effectively recover the damaged quantum entanglement affected by the Hawking effect and the noisy channel. Thus, our work might be beneficial to understand the dynamic behavior of quantum state and recover the damaged quantum entanglement with open Dirac systems under Hawking effect in the background of Schwarzschild black hole.

Recovering the lost steerability of quantum states within non-Markovian environments by utilizing quantum partially collapsing measurements

In this Letter, we mainly investigate the dynamic behavior of quantum steering and how to effectively recover the lost steerability of quantum states within non-Markovian environments. We consider two different cases (one-subsystem or all-subsystem interacts with the dissipative environments), and obtain that the dynamical interaction between system initialized by a Werner state and the non-Markovian environments can induce the quasi-periodic quantum entanglement (concurrence) resurgence, however, quantum steering cannot retrieve in such a condition. And we can obtain that the resurgent quantum entanglement cannot be utilized to achieve quantum steering. Subsequently, we put forward a feasible physical scheme for recovering the steerability of quantum states within the non-Markovian noises by prior weak measurement on each subsystem before the interaction with dissipative environments followed by post weak measurement reversal. It is shown that the steerability of quantum states and the fidelity can be effectively restored. Furthermore, the results show that the larger the weak measurement strength is, the better the effectiveness of the scheme is. Consequently, our investigations might be beneficial to recover the lost steerability of quantum states within the non-Markovian regimes.

How the relativistic motion affects Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering

In this Letter, the dynamic behavior of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering and the redistribution of EPR steering under a relativistic framework are investigated. Specifically, we explore the scenario that particle A hold by Alice is in a flat space-time and another particle B by Bob entangled with A is in a non-inertial framework. The results show that EPR steering from Alice to Bob is dramatically destroyed by Unruh effect caused by the acceleration of Bob. Besides, EPR steering has an asymmetry property, and EPR steering asymmetry increases with the growing intensity of Unruh effect, implying that the Unruh effect can bring on EPR steering asymmetry. Furthermore, the reduced physical accessible EPR steering from Alice to Bob is distributed to the physical inaccessible EPR steering (from Alice to anti-Bob or from Bob to anti-Bob). Notably, unlike entanglement and quantum discord, only one of EPR steering from Alice to anti-Bob and Bob to anti-Bob experiences a sudden birth with the increase of acceleration parameter, which means that they cannot simultaneously survive. That is, the monogamy relation of EPR steering is still tenable in such a scenario. Consequently, we believe that EPR steering could also be served as one of important information resources within the long-distance quantum secure communication under the relativistic framework.

Exploration quantum steering, nonlocality and entanglement of two-qubit X-state in structured reservoirs

In this work, there are two parties, Alice on Earth and Bob on the satellite, which initially share an entangled state, and some open problems, which emerge during quantum steering that Alice remotely steers Bob, are investigated. Our analytical results indicate that all entangled pure states and maximally entangled evolution states (EESs) are steerable, and not every entangled evolution state is steerable and some steerable states are only locally correlated. Besides, quantum steering from Alice to Bob experiences a "sudden death" with increasing decoherence strength. However, shortly after that, quantum steering experiences a recovery with the increase of decoherence strength in bit flip (BF) and phase flip (PF) channels. Interestingly, while they initially share an entangled pure state, all EESs are steerable and obey Bell nonlocality in PF and phase damping channels. In BF channels, all steerable states can violate Bell-CHSH inequality, but some EESs are unable to be employed to realize steering. However, when they initially share an entangled mixed state, the outcome is different from that of the pure state. Furthermore, the steerability of entangled mixed states is weaker than that of entangled pure states. Thereby, decoherence can induce the degradation of quantum steering, and the steerability of state is associated with the interaction between quantum systems and reservoirs.

Entropic uncertainty relations for Markovian and non-Markovian processes under a structured bosonic reservoir

The uncertainty relation is a fundamental limit in quantum mechanics and is of great importance to quantum information processing as it relates to quantum precision measurement. Due to interactions with the surrounding environment, a quantum system will unavoidably suffer from decoherence. Here, we investigate the dynamic behaviors of the entropic uncertainty relation of an atom-cavity interacting system under a bosonic reservoir during the crossover between Markovian and non-Markovian regimes. Specifically, we explore the dynamic behavior of the entropic uncertainty relation for a pair of incompatible observables under the reservoir-induced atomic decay effect both with and without quantum memory. We find that the uncertainty dramatically depends on both the atom-cavity and the cavity-reservoir interactions, as well as the correlation time, $τ$, of the structured reservoir. Furthermore, we verify that the uncertainty is anti-correlated with the purity of the state of the observed qubit-system. We also propose a remarkably simple and efficient way to reduce the uncertainty by utilizing quantum weak measurement reversal. Therefore our work offers a new insight into the uncertainty dynamics for multi-component measurements within an open system, and is thus important for quantum precision measurements.
