چکیده

This article is intended to be a pedagogical review of the recent studies of quantum entanglement in many-body systems. The basic concepts of entanglement for pure and mixed states are introduced in an intuitive approach. We will see that in the weakly interacting BEC and BCS superconductivity theories, the pair of particles with momentum k and −k are entangled but they are not correlated with other pairs. The entanglement vanishes when the interactions go to zero. The debates on the possible relationship between quantum phase transition and quantum entanglement is mentioned. My personal perspective on this issue is discussed and illustrated with a simple example.

درهم‌تنیدگی کوانتومی و گذار فاز کوانتومی تحت اتلاف در مدل ناهمسانگرد هایزنبرگ XXZ با برهم‌کنش ژیالوسینکی - موریا

  Because the key issue in quantum information and quantum computing is entanglement, the investigation of the effects of environment, as a source of quantum dissipation, and interaction between environment and system on entanglement and quantum phase transition is important. In this paper, we consider two-qubit system in the anisotropic Heisenberg XXZ model with the Dzyaloshinskii-moriya inter...

The Structure of Many - body Entanglement by RC 0 ANES Brian

In this thesis we discuss the general spatial structure of quantum entanglement in local many-body systems. A central theme is the organizing power of the renormalization group for thinking about many-body entanglement. We argue that the coarse structure of entanglement across of wide variety of systems, from gapped topological phases to gapless Fermi liquids in a variety of dimensions, can all...

Dynamics of entangled quantum optical system in independent media

We study the dynamics of two three-level atoms interacting with independent bosonic Lorentzian reservoirs at zero temperature. Such systems can be created in far astronomical objects. Quantum mechanical behaviour of these particles can produce detectable effects on the spectroscopic identifications of these objects, if such behaviour remain stable during the interaction with their media. It is ...

Quantum information in many-body systems

ABSTRACT: Quantum information sheds new light on quantum systems, complementary to the traditional point of view of energy. A key notion is entanglement, which measures quantum correlations within the system. Understanding entanglement of ground states is crucial to efficiently represent such many-body states using a small number of variational parameters. This is but one example of very powerf...

Probing topological order in quantum Hall states using entanglement calculations

I provide the background and a brief review of the interdisciplinary use of entanglement calculations to investigate a type of unconventional order in many-body systems, known as topological order. The discussion focuses on a particular class of topologically ordered states: the fractional quantum Hall states
