A quantum correlation N F G , A for ( n + m ) -mode continuous-variable systems is introduced in terms of local Gaussian unitary operations performed on Subsystem A based on Uhlmann fidelity F. This quantity is a remedy for the local ancilla problem associated with the geometric measurement-induced correlations; is local Gaussian unitary invariant; is non-increasing under any Gaussian quantum channel performed on Subsystem B;and is an entanglement monotone when restricted to pure Gaussian states in the ( 1 + m ) -mode case. A concrete formula for ( 1 + 1 ) -mode symmetric squeezed thermal states (SSTSs) is presented. We also compare N F G , A with other quantum correlations in scale, such as Gaussian quantum discord and Gaussian geometric discord, for two-mode SSTSs, which reveals that N F G , A has some advantage in detecting quantum correlations of Gaussian states.

We propose a measure of nonclassical correlation [Formula: see text] in terms of local Gaussian unitary operations based on square of the fidelity [Formula: see text] for bipartite continuous-variable systems. This quantity is easier to be calculated or estimated and is a remedy for the local ancilla problem associated with the geometric measurement-induced nonlocality. A simple computation formula of [Formula: see text] for any [Formula: see text]-mode Gaussian states is presented and an estimation of [Formula: see text] for any [Formula: see text]-mode Gaussian states is given. For any [Formula: see text]-mode Gaussian states, [Formula: see text] does not increase after performing a local Gaussian channel on the unmeasured subsystem. Comparing [Formula: see text] in scale with other quantum correlations such as Gaussian geometric discord for two-mode symmetric squeezed thermal states reveals that [Formula: see text] is much better in detecting quantum correlations of Gaussian states.

Gaussian Quantum Discord

Generally speaking, it is difficult to compute the values of the Gaussian quantum discord and Gaussian geometric discord for Gaussian states, which limits their application. In the present paper, for any (n+m)-mode continuous-variable system, a computable Gaussian quantum correlation M is proposed. For any state ρAB of the system, M(ρAB) depends only on the covariant matrix of ρAB without any measurements performed on a subsystem or any optimization procedures, and thus is easily computed. Furthermore, M has the following attractive properties: (1) M is independent of the mean of states, is symmetric about the subsystems and has no ancilla problem; (2) M is locally Gaussian unitary invariant; (3) for a Gaussian state ρAB, M(ρAB)=0 if and only if ρAB is a product state; and (4) 0≤M((ΦA⊗ΦB)ρAB)≤M(ρAB) holds for any Gaussian state ρAB and any Gaussian channels ΦA and ΦB performed on the subsystem A and B, respectively. Therefore, M is a nice Gaussian correlation which describes the same Gaussian correlation as Gaussian quantum discord and Gaussian geometric discord when restricted on Gaussian states. As an application of M, a noninvasive quantum method for detecting intracellular temperature is proposed.

We extend the geometric measure of quantum discord, introduced and computed for two-qubit states, to quantify non-classical correlations in composite Gaussian states of continuous variable systems. We lay the formalism for the evaluation of a Gaussian geometric discord in two-mode Gaussian states, and present explicit formulas for the class of two-mode squeezed thermal states. In such a case, under physical constraints of bounded mean energy, geometric discord is shown to admit upper and lower bounds for a fixed value of the conventional (entropic) quantum discord. We finally discuss alternative geometric approaches to quantify Gaussian quadrature correlations.

We address the balance of quantum correlations for continuous variable (CV) states. In particular, we consider a class of feasible tripartite CV pure states and explicitly prove two Koashi–Winter-like conservation laws involving Gaussian entanglement of formation (EoF), Gaussian quantum discord and sub-system Von Neumann entropies. We also address the class of tripartite CV mixed states resulting from the propagation in a noisy environment, and discuss how the previous equalities evolve into inequalities.

Gaussian Quantum Discord

In the framework of the theory of open systems based on completely positive quantum dynamical semigroups, we give a description of the continuous variable quantum discord for a system consisting of two non-interacting bosonic modes embedded in two independent thermal environments. We describe the evolution of discord in terms of the covariance matrix for Gaussian input states. In the case of an entangled initial squeezed vacuum state, we analyze the time evolution of the Gaussian quantum discord, which is a measure of all quantum correlations in the bipartite state, including entanglement, and show that quantum discord decays asymptotically in time under the effect of the thermal reservoirs. For an initial separable pure state, the Gaussian quantum discord is zero and it keeps this value during the whole evolution of the system.

Gaussian Quantum Discord

We study the dynamic of the Gaussian quantum discord in a continuous-variable system subject to a common non-Markovian environment with zero-temperature. By considering an initial two-mode Gaussian symmetric squeezed thermal state, we show that Gaussian discord has a very different dynamic characteristic in a non-Markovian evolution versus a Markov process, and can be created by the memory effect, which features non-Markovianity. We also study the relationship between Gaussian discord and the non-Markovian degree of the environment. The results may offer us an effective experimental method to get more quantum correlations.

A quantum error-correcting code is established in entangled coherent states (CSs) with Markovian and non-Markovian environments. However, the dynamic behavior of these optical states is discussed in terms of quantum correlation measurements, entanglement and discord. By using the correcting codes, these correlations can be as robust as possible against environmental effects. As the number of redundant CSs increases due to the repetitive error correction, the probabilities of success also increase significantly. Based on different optical field parameters, the discord can withstand more than an entanglement. Furthermore, the behavior of quantum discord under decoherence may exhibit sudden death and sudden birth phenomena as functions of dimensionless parameters.

Entanglement Distillation

We study the quantum correlations between source and target pairs in different protocols of entanglement distillation of one kind of entangled states. We find that there does not exist any quantum correlation in the standard recurrence distillation protocol, while quantum discord and even quantum entanglement are always present in the other two cases of the improved distillation protocols. In the three cases, the distillation efficiency improved with the quantum correlations enhanced.

Entanglement Sharing

It is a central trait of quantum information theory that there exist limitations to the free sharing of quantum correlations among multiple parties. Such monogamy constraints have been introduced in a landmark paper by Coffman, Kundu and Wootters, who derived a quantitative inequality expressing a trade-off between the couplewise and the genuine tripartite entanglement for states of three qubits. Since then, a lot of efforts have been devoted to the investigation of distributed entanglement in multipartite quantum systems. In this paper we report, in a unifying framework, a bird's eye view of the most relevant results that have been established so far on entanglement sharing in quantum systems. We will take off from the domain of N qubits, graze qudits, and finally land in the almost unexplored territory of multimode Gaussian states of continuous variable systems.

Phase Decoherence

Two two-level systems generated by su(2) algebra are initially prepared in a maximum nonsymmetric Bell state and having no mutual interaction. Each su(2)-system spatially interacts with two-mode cavity field in the nondegenerate parametric amplifier type cast through operators governed by su(1, 1) Lie algebra. An analytical description for the time evolution of the final state of the total system with the effect of intrinsic decoherence is found. Therefore, the robustness of the quantum correlations between the two su(2)-system is investigated by means of geometric quantum discord, measurement-induced nonlocality and negativity. We analyze in some detail the influence of initial coherence intensities, detuning and phase decoherence parameters on the steady-state correlation. We find that the steady-state correlations can be generated and enhanced by controlling the parameters of: the initial coherence intensities, the Bargmman index and the detuning. It is shown that the phenomenon of sudden death and re-birth of entanglement, and the sudden changes of the geometric quantum correlation can be controlled by these parameters. We find that the robustness of the quantum correlation can be greatly enhanced by the Bargmman index and the resonance detuning. Negativity is the measure most susceptible to phase decoherence, while geometric quantum discord and measurement-induced nonlocality are the more robust measures.
