Partial Teleportation of Entanglement in the Noisy Environment
Partial teleportation of entanglement is to teleport one particle of an
entangled pair through a quantum channel. This is conceptually equivalent to
quantum swapping. We consider the partial teleportation of entanglement in the
noisy environment, employing the Werner-state representation of the noisy
channel for the simplicity of calculation. To have the insight of the many-body
teleportation, we introduce the measure of correlation information and study
the transfer of the correlation information and entanglement. We find that the
fidelity gets smaller as the initial-state is entangled more for a given
entanglement of the quantum channel. The entangled channel transfers at least
some of the entanglement to the final state.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure
Subleading Shape-Function Effects and the Extraction of |V_ub|
We derive a class of formulae relating moments of B -> Xu l nu to B -> Xs
gamma in the shape function region, where m_X^2 ~ m_b Lambda_QCD. We also
derive an analogous class of formulae involving the decay B -> Xs l+ l-. These
results incorporate Lambda_QCD/m_b power corrections, but are independent of
leading and subleading hadronic shape functions. Consequently, they enable one
to determine |V_ub|/|V_tb V_ts*| to subleading order in a model-independent
way.Comment: 23 page
Putative spin liquid in the triangle-based iridate BaIrTiO
We report on thermodynamic, magnetization, and muon spin relaxation
measurements of the strong spin-orbit coupled iridate BaIrTiO,
which constitutes a new frustration motif made up a mixture of edge- and
corner-sharing triangles. In spite of strong antiferromagnetic exchange
interaction of the order of 100~K, we find no hint for long-range magnetic
order down to 23 mK. The magnetic specific heat data unveil the -linear and
-squared dependences at low temperatures below 1~K. At the respective
temperatures, the zero-field muon spin relaxation features a persistent spin
dynamics, indicative of unconventional low-energy excitations. A comparison to
the isostructural compound BaRuTiO suggests that a concerted
interplay of compass-like magnetic interactions and frustrated geometry
promotes a dynamically fluctuating state in a triangle-based iridate.Comment: Physical Review B accepte
Cross-Kerr-based information transfer processes
The realization of nonclassical states is an important task for many
applications of quantum information processing. Usually, properly tailored
interactions, different from goal to goal, are considered in order to
accomplish specific tasks within the general framework of quantum state
engineering. In this paper we remark on the flexibility of a cross-Kerr
nonlinear coupling in hybrid systems as an important ingredient in the
engineering of nonclassical states. The general scenario we consider is the
implementation of high cross-Kerr nonlinearity in cavity-quantum
electrodynamics. In this context, we discuss the possibility of performing
entanglement transfer and swapping between a qubit and a continuous-variable
state. The recently introduced concept of entanglement reciprocation is also
considered and shown to be possible with our scheme. We reinterpret some of our
results in terms of applications of a generalized Ising interaction to systems
of different nature.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, RevTeX
