The purpose of QSDC is to investigate the large capacity of quantum channels and fast speed of information transmission. However, the fidelity of qubits and the efficiency of QSDC will inevitably be affected by the channel noise and the decoherence of the quantum system. In this work, we focus on the performance of QSDC under different noisy channels, and investigate the evolution of quantum states. By numerically studying the performance for two QSDC protocols, we show the efficiency of information transmission over different noisy channel models.","PeriodicalId":51058,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Quantum Information","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48008737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The complexity of these networks coupled with the pervasive imperfections of the real world can lead to shortcomings in their practical construction. We analyze several realistic categories of flaws in the networks and show that they can have a harsh effect on the network’s performance. Dynamical decoupling is a known quantum error correction algorithm that can be used for partial or complete mitigation of undesired artefacts in quantum systems. We show here that dynamical decoupling can, in principle, also be used to stabilize the complex next-to-nearest-neighbor networks of qubits. We compare the proposed dynamical decoupling schemes with a baseline of dynamical decoupling scheme that eliminates all but one path to quantum state transfer on the network, thus effectively transforming it to a nearest-neighbor chain.","PeriodicalId":51058,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Quantum Information","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49394290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that for the three-mode magnons and the spring-like system, implementation of initial squeezing invariably enhances the two-way and three-way entanglement, while for the spin-resonator system, it depends on the alignment of the spin ensembles relative to the resonator field.","PeriodicalId":51058,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Quantum Information","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41492504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This time we show that every pair of Clifford states with real entries can be connected with at most 5 CNOT gates and local gates in [Formula: see text].

We show that the time evolution of the Rényi-2 correlations strongly depends on the parameters of the initial Gaussian squeezed thermal state of the considered system and on the parameters characterizing the squeezed thermal bath. It is shown that while Gaussian Rényi-2 entanglement is suppressed in a finite time, due to the interaction with the squeezed thermal bath, the correlations beyond entanglement — Gaussian Rényi-2 discord, classical correlations and mutual information undergo a freezing-like behavior, namely they decay only asymptotically, in the limit of large times.

For the configuration that the refrigerator acts on both the cold reservoir and a qubit, we find that though the common reservoirs can improve the cooling power, which instead is detrimental to the cooling of the qubit.
