The channel induced by a complex system interacting strongly with a qubit is calculated exactly under the assumption of randomness of its eigenvectors. The resulting channel is represented as an isotropic time dependent oscillation of the Bloch ball, leading to non-Markovian behavior, even in the limit of infinite environments. Two contributions are identified: one due to the density of states and the other due to correlations in the spectrum. Prototype examples, one for chaotic and the other for regular dynamics are explored.
Non-Markovian quantum effects are typically observed in systems interacting with structured reservoirs. Discrete-time quantum walks are prime example of such systems in which, quantum memory arises due to the controlled interaction between the coin and position degrees of freedom. Here we show that the information backflow that quantifies memory effects can be enhanced when the particle is subjected to uncorrelated static or dynamic disorder. The presence of disorder in the system leads to localization effects in 1-dimensional quantum walks. We shown that it is possible to infer about the natu…
The dynamics of open quantum systems and manipulation of quantum resources are both of fundamental interest in quantum physics. Here, we investigate the relation between quantum Markovianity and coherence, providing an effective way for detecting non-Markovianity based on the \textit{quantum-incoherent relative entropy of coherence} ($\mathcal{QI}$ REC). We theoretically show the relation between completely positive (CP) divisibility and the monotonic behavior of the $\mathcal{QI}$ REC. Also we implement an all-optical experiment to demonstrate that the behavior of the $\mathcal{QI}$ REC is co…
Chirality asymptotic behavior and non-Markovianity in quantum walks on a line
研究了一维晶格上离散时间量子行走的手征约化密度矩阵随时间的演化。我们分析了标准的情况下，没有退相干，和退相干的情况下出现在晶格中的断开链接的形式。通过考察可能的初态对的迹距离作为时间的函数，我们得出约化密度矩阵的演化在[H. P. Breuer，E. M. Laine和J. Piilo，Phys. Rev. Lett. 103，210401（2009）]。随着噪声水平的增加，动态接近马尔可夫过程。最高的非马尔可夫性对应于没有退相干的情况。约化的密度矩阵总是趋向于我们计算的一个明确定义的极限，但只有在无退相干的情况下，这个极限才是非平凡的。
Understanding and simulating non-Markovian quantum dynamics remains an important challenge in open quantum system theory. A key advance in this endeavour would be to develop a unified mathematical description of non-Markovian dynamics, and classify its complexity in the many-body setting. In this paper, we identify a general class of non-Markovian memory kernels, described by complex-valued radon measures, and define their dynamics through a regularization procedure constructing the corresponding system-environment unitary groups. Building on this definition, we then consider $k-$local many-bo…
Protection of Entanglement in the presence of Markovian or Non-Markovian Environment via particle velocity : Exact Results
在分析的基础上，研究了当量子系统处于马尔可夫或非马尔可夫环境中时，粒子速度对纠缠的保护作用的物理机制。特别是粒子速度的影响，检查在纠缠突然死亡（ESD）和纠缠复苏（ROE）现象。即使粒子快速运动，如果在零速度下发生，ESD现象也不会消失。然而，非零纠缠的时域$0 \leq t \leq t_*$随着速度的增加而变得越来越大。在零速度下发生ROE现象时，即使很小的速度也可以使这种现象不发生，但纠缠在时间上的振荡行为仍然保持不变。对于比较大的速度，振荡行为的振幅变得非常小。在这种情况下，纠缠可以通过粒子速度来保护。比较了速度对纠缠的保护和失谐量对纠缠的保护。
We consider bosonic quantum complex networks as structured finite environments for a quantum harmonic oscillator and investigate the interplay between the network structure and its spectral density, excitation transport properties and non-Markovianity. After a review of the formalism used, we demonstrate how even small changes to the network structure can have a large impact on the transport of excitations. We then consider the non-Markovianity over ensemble averages of several different types of random networks of identical oscillators and uniform coupling strength. Our results show that incr…
We study the curves of coherence for the Bell-diagonal states including $l_{1}$-norm of coherence and relative entropy of coherence under the Markovian channels in the first subsystem once. For a special Bell-diagonal state under bit-phase flip channel, we find frozen coherence under $l_{1}$ norm occurs, but relative entropy of coherence decrease. It illustrates that the occurrence of frozen coherence depends on the type of the measure of coherence. We study the coherence evolution of Bell-diagonal states under Markovian channels in the first subsystem $n$ times and find coherence under depola…
A rapid restoration of the bath state is usually required to induce Markovian dynamics for an open quantum system, which typically can be realized only in limits such as weak system-bath coupling and infinitely large bath. In this work, we investigate the Markovianity of a qubit system coupled to a single-qubit bath with the qubit bath being continuously refreshed by quantum cooling. A surprising result is that there exists a finite threshold for the cooling rate at which the system transitions from non-Markovian dynamics to Markovian dynamics, which is in sharp contrast to the usual understan…
The non-Markovia dynamics of quantum evolution plays an important role in open quantum sytem. However, how to quantify non-Markovian behavior and what can be obtained from non- Markovianity are still open questions, especially in complex solid systems. Here we address the problem of quantifying non-Markovianity with entanglement in a genuine noisy solid state system at room temperature. We observed the non-Markovianity of quantum evolution with entanglement. By prolonging entanglement with dynamical decoupling, we can reveal the non-Markovianity usually concealed in the environment and obtain …
By using the quantum Yang-Baxterization approach to the three different Hamiltonians, we investigate the behavior of the quantum Fisher information (QFI) under the actions of these Hamiltonians on the different two-qubit input states and by estimating the meaningful parameter $φ$. We address the overall estimation properties by evaluating the QFI for the whole system undergone different unitary evolution. The results show that the behavior of the QFI depends on the choice of the initial states. Choosing the optimal input states can improve the precision of quantum parameter estimation. On the …

Quantum non-Markovianity of a quantum noisy channel manifests typically as information backflow, characterized by the departure of the intermediate map from complete positivity, though we indicate certain noisy channels that don't exhibit this behavior. In complex systems, non-Markovianity becomes more involved on account of subsystem dynamics. Here we study various facets of non-Markovian evolution, in the context of coined quantum walks, with particular stress on disambiguating the internal vs. environmental contributions to non-Markovian backflow. For the above problem of disambiguation, we…
We investigate the coherence and non-Markovianity of a quantum tunneling system whose barrier is fluctuated by a telegraph noise, and its energy gap is modulated by Gaussian noise. With the help of averaging method, the system dynamics are analytically derived, and the analytical expression for coherence measure and non-Markovianity for the very limited parameter regimes for both initially coherent and non-coherent states are obtained. We observe non-Markovian dynamics in a situation where the Kubo number is high. It is also found that there is no strong relation between the coherence of the s…
We present the experimental control of Non-Markovian dynamics of open quantum systems simulated with photonic entities. The polarization of light is used as the system, whereas the surrounding environment is represented by light's spatial structure. The control of the dynamics is achieved by the engineering of the environment via spatial interference. Using the behavior of the trace distance, we are able to identify each dynamics and characterize the position of maximum revival of information.
For a quantum system undergoing non-Markovian open quantum dynamics, we demonstrate a tomography algorithm based on multi-time measurements of the system, which reconstructs a minimal environment coupled to the system, such that the system plus environment undergoes unitary evolution and that the reduced dynamics of the system is identical to the observed dynamics of it. The reconstructed open quantum evolution model can be used to predict any future dynamics of the system when it is further assumed to be time-independent. We define the memory size and memory complexity for the non-Markovian o…
