Non-Markovian dynamics in two-qubit dephasing channels with an application to superdense coding

Abstract: We study the performance of two measures of non-Markovianity in detecting memory effects in two-qubit dephasing channels. By combining independent Markovian and non-Markovian noise on the qubits, our results show that the trace distance measure is able to detect the memory effects when at least one of the local channels displays non-Markovianity. A measure based on channel capacity, in turn, becomes non-zero when the global two-qubit dynamics shows memory effects. We apply these schemes to a well-known superde… Show more

“…In a number of physical scenarios, however, a Markovian description of the dynamics is inadequate [11][12][13]. Furthermore, memory effects may be beneficial for certain quantum-enhanced protocols, such as superdense coding [14,15], teleportation [16], and quantum key-distribution [17], and they play a key role as well in quantum thermodynamics [18] and measurement theory [19]. Their quantification in terms of information backflow has led to the introduction of a number of non-Markovianity measures or witnesses, based on the dynamical properties of different quantum information quantifiers [20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

“…For that we numerically integrate the master equation in ( 1 ) by applying the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method for different time-dependent damping functions, considered in the previous section. The choice of the studied states is dictated by the frequent use of the qubit and squeezed coherent states in entanglement-based quantum information protocols utilizing the DV and CV states, respectively 53 , 54 . By knowing the dynamics of a density matrix , we then calculate the non-Markovianity measure , in Eq.…”

“…in which Λ t is the dynamical map (4). The above quantity is, in practice, nearly impossible to compute exactly because it involves a state optimization procedure and only few analytically treatable cases are known in literature [20]. Nonetheless, it does provide a rather intuitive interpretation of memory effects in open systems and it still allows to get an insight of the behavior of memory effects by selecting some significant pairs of initial states.…”
