在硬币自由度和位置自由度上消相干的$N$ -圈上量子行走的渐近演化

Asymptotic evolution of quantum walks on the $N$-cycle subject to decoherence on both the coin and position degrees of freedom

摘要:

考虑在$N$ -圈上的离散时间量子行走,该量子行走在硬币和位置自由度上都受到退相干的影响。通过考察系统的密度矩阵的演化,我们得到了关于系统渐近行为的一些新结论。当$N$为奇数时,系统的密度矩阵在长期内趋向于最大混合态,与初始状态无关。当$N$是偶数时,虽然系统的行为不一定是渐近平稳的,但在这种情况下也得到了系统的渐近动力学的显式公式。此外,这种方法使我们能够指定互信息的限制行为,被视为子系统(硬币和步行者)之间的量子纠缠的度量。特别是,我们的研究结果提供了有效的理论确认的研究结果,以前的作者,谁到达他们的结果,通过广泛的数值模拟。我们的结果可以归因于一个重要的定理,该定理对于广义随机酉运算,明确地确定了其所有对应于单位模特征值的特征空间的结构。

英文摘要:

Consider a discrete-time quantum walk on the $N$-cycle subject to decoherence both on the coin and the position degrees of freedom. By examining the evolution of the density matrix of the system, we derive some new conclusions about the asymptotic behavior of the system. When $N$ is odd, the density matrix of the system tends, in the long run, to the maximally mixed state, independent of the initial state. When $N$ is even, although the behavior of the system is not necessarily asymptotically stationary, in this case too an explicit formulation is obtained of the asymptotic dynamics of the system. Moreover, this approach enables us to specify the limiting behavior of the mutual information, viewed as a measure of quantum entanglement between subsystems (coin and walker). In particular, our results provide efficient theoretical confirmation of the findings of previous authors, who arrived at their results through extensive numerical simulations. Our results can be attributed to an important theorem which, for a generalized random unitary operation, explicitly identifies the structure of all of its eigenspaces corresponding to eigenvalues of unit modulus.
