Based on the quantum technique of weak measurement, we propose a scheme to
protect the entanglement from correlated amplitude damping decoherence. In
contrast to the results of memoryless amplitude damping channel, we show that
the memory effects play a significant role in the suppression of entanglement
sudden death and protection of entanglement under severe decoherence. Moreover,
we find that the initial entanglement could be drastically amplified by the
combination of weak measurement and quantum measurement reversal even under the
correlated amplitude damping channel. The underlying mechanism can be
attributed to the probabilistic nature of weak measurements.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures, accepted by Quantum Information Processin
