Decoherence in quantum spin systems

چکیده
Computer simulations of decoherence in quantum spin systems require the solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for interacting quantum spin systems over extended periods of time. We use exact diagonalization, the Chebyshev polynomial technique, four Suzuki-formula algorithms, and the short-iterative-Lanczos method to solve a simple model for decoherence of a quantum spin system by an environment consisting of quantum spins, and compare advantages and limitations of different algorithms.

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...
متن کاملDecoherence in Quantum Magnets: Theory and Experiment
Decoherence in Nature has become one of the most pressing problems in physics. Many applications, including quantum information processing, depend on understanding it; and fundamental theories going beyond quantum mechanics have been suggested [1–3], where the breakdown of quantum theory appears as an 'intrinsic decoherence', mimicking environmental decoherence [4]. Such theories cannot be test...
متن کاملDecoherence in the Heisenberg model
We study a simplified Heisenberg spin model in order to clarify the idea of decoherence in closed quantum systems. For this purpose, we define a new concept: the decoherence function Ξ(t), which describes the dynamics of decoherence in the whole system, and which is linked with the total (von Neumann) entropy of all particles. As expected, decoherence is understood both as a statistical process...
متن کاملCoherence theory and coherence phenomena in a closed spin 1/2 system
We study a simplified Heisenberg spin model in order to clarify the idea of decoherence in closed quantum systems. For this purpose, we define a new concept: the coherence function Ξ(t), which describes the dynamics of coherence in the whole system, and which is linked with the total coarsegrained (von Neumann) entropy of all particles. We discuss in some detail a general coherence theory and i...
