Entanglement as a quantum order parameter

نویسنده

چکیده

We show that the quantum order parameters (QOP) associated with the transitions between a normal conductor and a superconductor in the BCS and η-pairing models and between a Mott-insulator and a superfluid in the Bose-Hubbard model are directly related to the amount of entanglement existent in the ground state of each system. This connection gives a physical meaningful interpretation to these QOP, which shows the intrinsically quantum nature of the phase transitions considered.

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...

Voltage-Controlled Entanglement between Quantum- Dot Molecule and its Spontaneous Emission Fields via Quantum Entropy

The time evolution of the quantum entropy in a coherently driven threelevel quantum dot (QD) molecule is investigated. The entanglement of quantum dot molecule and its spontaneous emission field is coherently controlled by the gat voltage and the intensity of applied field. It is shown that the degree of entanglement between a three-level quantum dot molecule and its spontaneous emission fields...

Decoherence effects on quantum Fisher information of multi-qubit W states

Quantum fisher information of a parameter characterizing the sensitivity of a state with respect to parameter changes. In this paper, we study the quantum fisher information of the W state for four, five, six and seven particles in decoherence channels, such as amplitude damping, phase damping and depolarizing channel. Using Krauss operators for decoherence channels components, we investigate t...

Coherent Control of Quantum Entropy via Quantum Interference in a Four-Level Atomic System

The time evaluation of quantum entropy in a four-level double- type atomic system is theoretically investigated. Quantum entanglement of the atom and its spontaneous emission fields is then discussed via quantum entropy. It is found that the degree of entanglement can be increased by the quantum interference induced by spontaneous emission. The phase dependence of the atom-field entanglement is...

Scaling of entanglement at a quantum phase transition for a two-dimensional array of quantum dots

Using the Hubbard model, the entanglement scaling behavior in a two-dimensional itinerant system is investigated. It has been found that, on the two sides of the critical point denoting an inherent quantum phase transition (QPT), the entanglement follows different scalings with the size, just as an order parameter does. This fact reveals the subtle role played by the entanglement in QPT as a fu...
