Consider the dynamics of a two-qubit entangled system in the decoherence environment, we investigate the stability of pairwise entanglement under decoherence. We find that for different decoherence models, there exist some special class of…
We consider whether quantum coherence in the form of mutual entanglement between a pair of qubits is susceptible to decay that may be more rapid than the decay of the coherence of either qubit individually. An instance of potential…
Self-interactions and interaction with the environment tend to push quantum systems toward states of maximal entanglement. This is a definition of decoherence. We argue that these maximally entangled states fall into the well-defined…
