Freezing dynamics of entanglement and nonlocality for qutrit-qutrit ($3\otimes 3$) quantum systems

Abstract

We examine the possibilities of non-trivial phenomena of time-invariant entanglement and freezing dynamics of entanglement for qutrit-qutrit quantum systems. We find no evidence for time-invariant entanglement, however, we do observe that quantum states freeze their entanglement after decaying for some time. It is interesting that quantum states are changing whereas their entanglement remains constant. We find that the combined action of decoherence free subspaces and subspaces where quantum states decay, facilitate this phenomenon. This study is an extension of similar phenomena observed for qubit-qubit systems, qubit-qutrit, and multipartite quantum systems. We examine nonlocality of a specific family of states and find the certain instances where the states still remain entangled, however they can either loose their nonlocality at a finite time or remain nonlocal for all times.
