Affinity-based geometric discord and quantum speed limits of its creation and decay

Abstract

In this article, we define a faithful quantifiers of bipartite quantum correlation, namely geometric version of quantum discord using affinity based metric. It is shown that the newly-minted measure resolves the local ancilla problem of Hilbert-Schmidt measures. Exploiting the notion of affinity-based discord, we derive Margolus-Levitin (ML) and Mandelstamm-Tamm (MT) bounds for the quantum speed limit time for the creation and decay of quantum correlation. The dynamical study suggests that the affinity measure is a better resource compared to entanglement. Finally, we study the role of quantum correlation on quantum speed limit.
