Quantum Entanglement in the S=1/2 Spin Ladder with Ring Exchange

چکیده
In this paper we study the concurrence and the block-block entanglement in the S = 1/2 spin ladder with four-spin ring exchange by the exact diagonalization method of finite cluster of spins. The relationship between the global phase diagram and the ground-state entanglement is investigated. It is shown that the block-block entanglement of different block size and geometry manifests richer information of the system. We find that the extremal point of the two-site block-block entanglement on the rung locates a transition point exactly due to SU(4) symmetry at this point. The scaling behavior of the block-block entanglement is discussed. Our results suggest that the block-block entanglement can be used as a convenient marker of quantum phase transition in some complex spin systems.

متن کاملEntanglement in the XZ spin chain model in the external magnetic field
The entanglement at zero-temperature is studied in a two-qubit XZ spin-1/2 chain model in anexternal magnetic field which is applied in the z direction. We have obtained an analytical relation forthe effect of the external magnetic field on the concurrence. It is shown that the ground state of thesystem depends on the strength of exchange coupling. We have shown that the analytical relation oft...
متن کاملLadder proof of nonlocality without inequalities for maximally entangled states
The ladder proof of nonlocality without inequalities for two spin-12 particles proposed by Hardy et al. [1, 2] works only for nonmaximally entangled states and goes through for 50% of pairs at the most. A similar ladder proof for two spin-1 particles in a maximally entangled state is presented. In its simplest form, the proof goes through for 17% of pairs. An extended version works for 100% of ...

متن کاملThermal effect and role of entanglement and coherence on excitation transfer in a spin chain
We analyze the role of bath temperature, coherence and entanglement on excitation transfer in a spin chain induced by the environment. In Markovian regime, we show that coherence and entanglement are very sensitive to bath temperature and vanish in time in contrary to the case of having zero-temperature bath. That is while, finding the last qubit of the chain in excited state increases by incre...
