Tripartite entanglement dynamics in a system of strongly driven qubits

We study the dynamics of tripartite entanglement in a system of two strongly driven qubits individually coupled to a dissipative cavity. We aim at explanation of the previously noted entanglement revival between two qubits in this system. We show that the periods of entanglement loss correspond to the strong tripartite entanglement between the qubits and the cavity and the recovery has to do with an inverse process. We demonstrate that the overall process of qubit-qubit entanglement loss is due to the second order coupling to the external continuum which explains the exp[-g^2 t/2+g^2 k t^3/6+\cdot] for of the entanglement loss reported previously.
