The measurement precision for two incompatible observables in a typical quantum system can be improved by the aid of one particle as a quantum memory. In this work, we study the entropic uncertainty relation in the presence of quantum memory (EUR-QM) and dense coding capacity (DCC) for arbitrary two-qubit X-states, and then we obtain an explicit relationship between the lower bound of the uncertainty and DCC. As an example, we examine the thermal EUR-QM as well as DCC in two kinds of two-qubit spin squeezing models (one-axis twisting model and two-axis counter-twisting model) under an external magnetic field. In the following, we relate EUR-QM to DCC and show analytically that there is an anti-correlated relation between them, and especially in the ground state. Our results show that for both the models, the entropic uncertainty and its bound can be decreased by reinforcing the spin squeezing parameters or decreasing the temperature of the system. Notably, we reveal that the valid dense coding cannot carry out in the one-axis twisting model, nevertheless, if we properly choose the Hamiltonian parameters, the two-axis counter-twisting model not only carries out the valid dense coding but also the optimal dense coding surely can be achieved. Thereby, our observations might offer new insights into quantum measurement precision and the optimal dense coding for the regimes of various solid-state systems.
We propose a new classification for the entanglement in graph states based on generalized concurrence. The numerical results indicate that the eight different three-qubit graph states in three categories, 64 four-qubit graph states in five categories and 1024 five-qubit graph states in 10 classes. We also compare this classification with equivalence classes of these graph states under local complementation (LC) operator, and the obtained result suggests that classification by generalized concurrence is not in contradiction with the LC-rule. Furthermore, our results suggest that the generalized concurrence is a suitable measure of entanglement for multi-qubit graph states.
We investigate thermal quantum correlations and the entropic uncertainty relation in the presence of quantum memory under two kinds of two-qubit spin squeezing models, namely the one-axis twisting model and two-axis countertwisting model. We provide the analytical expressions of quantum correlations and the entropic uncertainty relation in the ground state for these two models and we find a simple relationship between quantum discord and entropic uncertainty. It is found that there is a fully anti-correlated relationship between quantum correlations and entropic uncertainty. Also, the maximal quantum correlation and minimal uncertainty can be achieved when the spin squeezing parameters are large enough. Accordingly, these results may be significant in practical goals in which the maximum quantum correlation and minimum uncertainty are required such as in quantum key distribution and quantum computing.
In this paper, we study the thermal evolution of three types of quantum correlations under the homogeneous and inhomogeneous spin star Hamiltonian. It is shown that quantum discord (QD) is more stable than the other measures in the thermal regime, but concurrence is more efficient when the Hamiltonian parameters are employed. However, all quantum correlations can reach their maximum, if the inhomogeneous parameter raises. Quantum correlations can be enhanced by a weak external magnetic field and strong coupling parameter. But they vanish in the case of a strong magnetic field, weak coupling parameter, and high temperatures.
