• Title: Landau-type sudden transitions of quantum correlations
• Authors: Mikhail A. Yurischev
• Abstract summary: We show that quantum discord and one-way quantum work deficit can experience sudden changes of other kinds. For the one-way quantum work deficit, we found cases where the optimal measurement angle jumps from zero to a nonzero step less than $pi/2$. This behavior of quantum correlation is similar to a first-order phase transition in Landau's theory.

• Abstract: Sudden changes of quantum correlations in the Bell-diagonal states are well-known effects. They occur when the set of optimal parameters that determine the quantum correlation consists of isolated points and optimal parameters during the evolution of the system jump from one such point to another (e.g., the optimal measurement angle of the quantum discord changes discontinuously from zero to $\pi/2$ or vice versa). However, when considering more general X quantum states, we found that quantum discord and one-way quantum work deficit can experience sudden changes of other kinds. Namely, the optimal measurement angle may suddenly start to shift {\em continuously} from its stationary value 0 or $\pi/2$ to an intermediate optimal measurement angle $\vartheta\in(0,\pi/2)$. This leads to a new behavior of quantum correlations, which is mathematically described by the Landau phenomenological theory of second-order phase transitions. In addition, for the one-way quantum work deficit, we found cases where the optimal measurement angle jumps from zero to a nonzero step less than $\pi/2$, and then continuously changes its value. This behavior of quantum correlation is similar to a first-order phase transition in Landau's theory. Dependencies of quantum discord and one-way quantum work deficit near the boundaries, which separate regions with state-dependent (variable) and state-independent (stationary, constant) optimal measurement angles, are examined in detail on an example of the XXZ spin model in an external field at thermal equilibrium.

  Quantum systems interact with their environment, resulting in non-reversible evolutions. For many quantum experiments, the time until which measurements can be done might be limited.

  In two-level quantum systems - qubits - unitary dynamics theoretically limit these quantum correlations to $2qrt2$ or 1.5 respectively. Here, using a dissipative, trapped $40$Ca$+$ ion governed by a two-level, non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, we observe correlation values up to 1.703(4) for the Leggett-Garg parameter $K_3$. These excesses occur across the exceptional point of the parity-time symmetric Hamiltonian responsible for the qubit's non-unitary, coherent dynamics.

  In the vicinity of ground-state phase transitions quantum correlations can display non-analytic behavior and critical scaling. Here we consider as a paradigmatic setting the superradiant phase transition of the open quantum Dicke model. We show that local dissipation, which cannot be treated within the commonly employed Holstein-Primakoff approximation, rather unexpectedly leads to an enhancement of collective quantum correlations.

  A wave function exposed to measurements undergoes pure state dynamics. For many-particle systems, the competition of these different elements of dynamics can give rise to a scenario similar to quantum phase transitions. A key finding is that this field theory decouples into one set of degrees of freedom that heats up indefinitely.

  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
