Renormalization of trace distance and multipartite entanglement close to the quantum phase transitions of one- and two-dimensional spin-chain systems

We investigate the quantum phase transitions of spin systems in one and two dimensions by employing trace distance and multipartite entanglement along with real-space quantum renormalization group method. As illustration examples, a one-dimensional and a two-dimensional $XY$ models are considered. It is shown that the quantum phase transitions of these spin-chain systems can be revealed by the singular behaviors of the first derivatives of renormalized trace distance and multipartite entanglement in the thermodynamics limit. Moreover, we find the renormalized trace distance and multipartite entanglement obey certain universal exponential-type scaling laws in the vicinity of the quantum critical points

Optimal entanglement generation in cavity QED with dissipation

We investigate a two-level atom coupled to a cavity with a strong classical driving field in a dissipative environment and find an analytical expression of the time evolution density matrix for the system. The analytical density operator is then used to study the entanglement between the atom and cavity by considering the competing process between the atom-field interactions and the field-environment interactions. It is shown that there is an optimal interaction time for generating atom-cavity entanglement.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure

Diffusion and entanglement of a kicked particle in an infinite square well under frequent measurements

We investigate the dynamics of a kicked particle in an infinite square well undergoing frequent measurements of energy. For a large class of periodic kicking force, constant diffusion is found in such a non-KAM system. The influence of phase shift of the kicking potential on the short-time dynamical behavior is discussed. The general asymptotical measurement-assisted diffusion rate is obtained. The entanglement between the particle and the measuring apparatus is investigated. There exist two distinct dynamical behaviors of entanglement. The bipartite entanglement grows with the kicking steps and it gains larger value for the more chaotic system. However, the pairwise entanglement between the system of interest and the partial spins of the measuring apparatus decreases with the kicking steps. The relation between the entanglement and quantum diffusion is also analyzed. PACS numbers: 05.45.Mt, 03.65.TaComment: 7 pages, 5 figures, RevTex4, Accepted by Phys. Rev.

Stationary state entanglement and total correlation of two qubits or qutrits

We investigate the mutual information and entanglement of stationary state of two locally driven qubits under the influence of collective dephasing. It is shown that both the mutual information and the entanglement of two qubits in the stationary state exhibit damped oscillation with the scaled action time $\gamma{T}$ of the local external driving field. It means that we can control both the entanglement and total correlation of the stationary state of two qubits by adjusting the action time of the driving field. We also consider the influence of collective dephasing on entanglement of two qutrits and obtain the sufficient condition that the stationary state is entangled.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, RevTex

Empirical study of C2C logistics customer satisfaction based on AHP and FCE

Abstract Evaluation system of C2C logistics customer satisfaction was mainly studied here. Firstly, three primary indexes and nine secondary indexes were constructed as the components of the evaluation system. Then the integrated use of AHP and FCE was carried on taobao.com as the empirical research. The result indicates that the overall logistics customer satisfaction of taobao.com is good. But there is still space for improvement. Through this study, logistics customer satisfaction of taobao.com is to improved. In addition, references are provided for other C2C enterprises and logistics companies. The common development of them is therefore promoted

Enhancement of quantum correlations for the system of cavity QED by applying bang-bang pulses

We propose a scheme of increasing quantum correlations for the cavity quantum electrodynamics system consisting of two noninteracting two-level atoms each locally interacting with its own quantized field mode by bang-bang pulses. We investigate the influence of the bang-bang pulses on the dynamics of quantum discord, entanglement, quantum mutual information and classical correlation between the two atoms. It is shown that the amount of quantum discord and entanglement of the two atoms can be improved by applying the bang-bang pulses.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
