An alternative non-Markovianity measure by divisibility of dynamical map
Identifying non-Markovianity with non-divisibility, we propose a measure for
non-Markovinity of quantum process. Three examples are presented to illustrate
the non-Markovianity, measure for non-Markovianity is calculated and discussed.
Comparison with other measures of non-Markovianity is made. Our
non-Markovianity measure has the merit that no optimization procedure is
required and it is finite for any quantum process, which greatly enhances the
practical relevance of the proposed measure.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figue
Suppressing decoherence and improving entanglement by quantum-jump-based feedback control in two-level systems
We study the quantum-jump-based feedback control on the entanglement shared
between two qubits with one of them subject to decoherence, while the other
qubit is under the control. This situation is very relevant to a quantum system
consisting of nuclear and electron spins in solid states. The possibility to
prolong the coherence time of the dissipative qubit is also explored. Numerical
simulations show that the quantum-jump-based feedback control can improve the
entanglement between the qubits and prolong the coherence time for the qubit
subject directly to decoherence
