The role of mixed states in topological quantum matter is less known than that of pure quantum states. Generalisations of topological phases appearing in pure states had received only quite recently attention in the literature. In…

We study the geometric Uhlmann phase of entangled mixed states in a composite system made of two coupled spin-$\frac 1 2$ particles with a magnetic field acting on one of them. Within a depolarizing channel setup, an exact analytical…

A sequence of completely positive maps can be decomposed into quantum trajectories. The geometric phase or holonomy of such a trajectory is delineated. For nonpure initial states, it is shown that well-defined holonomies can be assigned by…

Pure three-qubit states have five algebraically independent and one algebraically dependent polynomial invariants under local unitary transformations and an arbitrary entanglement measure is a function of these six invariants. It is shown…

We show that the geometric phase for mixed state during a cyclic evolution suggested in 2004 J. Phys. A 37 3699 is U(1) invariant and can be observed by nowaday techniques.

Geometric properties of the set of quantum entangled states are investigated. We propose an explicit method to compute the dimension of local orbits for any mixed state of the general K x M problem and characterize the set of effectively…

We present a geometric approach to the characterization of separability and entanglement in pure Gaussian states of an arbitrary number of modes. The analysis is performed adapting to continuous variables a formalism based on single…

This paper focuses on the geometric phase of general mixed states under unitary evolution. Here we analyze both non-degenerate as well as degenerate states. Starting with the non-degenerate case, we show that the usual procedure of…

Multi-qubit graph states generated by the action of controlled phase shift operators on a separable quantum state of a system, in which all the qubits are in arbitrary identical states, are examined. The geometric measure of entanglement of…

The geometric measure of entanglement of a pure state, defined by its distance to the set of pure separable states, is extended to multipartite mixed states. We characterize the nearest disentangled mixed state to a given mixed state with…

The quantum geometric tensor (QGT) characterizes the Hilbert space geometry of the eigenstates of a parameter-dependent Hamiltonian. In recent years, the QGT and related quantities have found extensive theoretical and experimental utility,…

The Berry phase has found applications in building topological order parameters for certain condensed matter systems. The question whether some geometric phase for mixed states can serve the same purpose has been raised, and proposals are…

We define the geometric measure of mixing of quantum state as a minimal Hilbert-Schmidt distance between the mixed state and a set of pure states. An explicit expression for the geometric measure is obtained. It is interesting that this…

The Lindblad generators of the master equation define which kind of decoherence happens in an open quantum system. We are working with a two qubit system and choose the generators to be projection operators on the eigenstates of the system…

We study the fidelity approach to quantum phase transitions (QPTs) and apply it to general thermal phase transitions (PTs). We analyze two particular cases: the Stoner-Hubbard itinerant electron model of magnetism and the BCS theory of…

In this paper, we investigate the geometric phase (GP) acquired by two-mode mixed squeezed-coherent states (SCSs) during unitary cyclic evolution, focusing on the influence of squeezing parameters and classical weight. We analyze the GP for…

In this thesis we provide a uniform treatment of two non-adiabatic geometric phases for dynamical systems of mixed quantum states, namely those of Uhlmann and of Sj\"{o}qvist et al. We develop a holonomy theory for the latter which we also…

Finite-dimensional Quantum Mechanics can be geometrically formulated as a proper classical-like Hamiltonian theory in a projective Hilbert space. The description of composite quantum systems within the geometric Hamiltonian framework is…

It is shown that the geometric measure of entanglement of a pure multipartite state satisfies a polynomial equation, generalising the characteristic equation of the matrix of coefficients of a bipartite state. The equation is solved for a…

Any set of pure states living in an given Hilbert space possesses a natural and unique metric --the Haar measure-- on the group $U(N)$ of unitary matrices. However, there is no specific measure induced on the set of eigenvalues $\Delta$ of…
