Steered coherence of a central two-qubit system coupled to an XY spin chain

We investigate the average steered coherence (ASC) of a central two-qubit system coupled to an XY spin-chain environment. It is shown that there exists subspace in which the initial states are immune to this environment. Outside of this subspace, the decay of the ASC can be significantly suppressed...

description We investigate the average steered coherence (ASC) of a central two-qubit system coupled to an XY spin-chain environment. It is shown that there exists subspace in which the initial states are immune to this environment. Outside of this subspace, the decay of the ASC can be significantly suppressed by tuning the interaction of the central qubits and its anisotropy in the z axis, as well as the anisotropy of the spin–spin interaction in the xy plane of the environment and the strength of the transverse magnetic field. For the initial Bell states and their unitary equivalent classes, one can also identify system and environmental parameters for which the ASC oscillates near its maximum even in the long-time interval.
