SU(2)-invariant depolarization of quantum states of light
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop an SU(2)-invariant approach to the depolarization of quantum systems as the effect of random unitary SU(2) transformations. From it we derive an SU(2)-invariant Markovian master equation. This is applied to several quantum states examining whether nonclassical states are more sensible to depolarization than the classical ones. Furthermore, we show that this depolarization model provides a nontrivial generalization of depolarization channels to states of arbitrary dimension.

Entanglement in SU(2)-invariant quantum systems: The positive partial transpose criterion and others
We study entanglement in mixed bipartite quantum states which are invariant under simultaneous SU 2 transformations in both subsystems. Previous results on the behavior of such states under partial transposition are substantially extended. The spectrum of the partial transpose of a given SU 2 -invariant density matrix is entirely determined by the diagonal elements of in a basis of tensor-produ...
متن کاملEntanglement in SU„2...-invariant quantum spin systems
We analyze the entanglement of SU~2!-invariant density matrices of two spins SW 1 , SW 2 using the PeresHorodecki criterion. Such density matrices arise from thermal equilibrium states of isotropic-spin systems. The partial transpose of such a state has the same multiplet structure and degeneracies as the original matrix with the eigenvalue of largest multiplicity being non-negative. The case S...
متن کاملIntegrable Su(2)-invariant Spin Chains and the Haldane Conjecture
We perform a systematic exact algebraic search for integrable spin-S chains which are isotropic in spin space, i.e. are su(2)-invariant. The families of spin chains found for S ≤ 13.5 support recent arguments in favour of the complete classification of all such integrable chains. The integrable families of spin chains are discussed in the light of the conjectured spin-dependent properties of th...
متن کاملEffective Actions near Singularities
We study the heterotic string compactified on K3× T 2 near the line T = U , where the effective action becomes singular due to an SU(2) gauge symmetry enhancement. By ‘integrating in’ the light W± vector multiplets we derive a quantum corrected effective action which is manifestly SU(2) invariant and non-singular. This effective action is found to be consistent with a residual SL(2,Z) quantum s...
متن کاملSpin excitations in the integrable open quantum group invariant supersymmetric t – J model
The integrable quantum group splq(2, 1)-invariant supersymmetric t–J model with open boundaries is studied via an analytic treatment of the Bethe equations. An su(2) feature is seen to hold for states at or close to half-filling. For these states the eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of the t–J model satisfy a set of su(2) functional relations. The finite-size corrections to the relevant eigen...
