Abstract A new nonlinear integral equation (NLIE) describing the thermodynamics of the Heisenberg spin chain is derived based on the t − W relation of the quantum transfer matrices. The free energy of the system in a magnetic field is thus obtained by solving the NLIE. This method can be generalized to other lattice quantum integrable models. Taking the SU(3)-invariant quantum spin chain as an example, we construct the corre- sponding NLIEs and compute the free energy. The present results coincide exactly with those obtained via other methods previously.

We study the possibility of using an uniformly coupled finite antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain as a channel for transmitting entanglement. One member of a pair of maximally entangled spins is initially appended to one end of a chain in its ground state and the dynamical propagation of this entanglement to the other end is calculated. We show that, compared to the analogous scheme with a ferromagnetic chain in its ground state, here the entanglement is transmitted faster, with less decay, with a much higher purity and as a narrow pulse form rising nonanalytically from zero. Here nonzero temperatures and depolarizing environments are both found to be less destructive in comparison to the ferromagnetic case. The entanglement is found to propagate through the chain in a peculiar fashion whereby it hops to skip alternate sites.

AbstractWe investigate the effects of phase shift on entanglement, quantum discord, geometric discord, and spinsqueezing of a Heisenberg chain under dephasing. An analytical solution of the present model is obtained. Our results show that the initial correlations of the spin chain could be partially stored for a long time in the presence of dephasing and the amount of steady state correlations can be adjusted via phase shift. Particularly, we find the effects of phase shift on quantum discord and geometric discord are not always the same, i.e., the increase of geometric discord does not always imply the increase of quantum discord. Then, we calculate the spin-squeezing of the spin chain and find that spin-squeezing first increases with time and then reaches a plateau. The amount of spin-squeezing can be controlled via phase shift.
