Linking entanglement and quantum phase transitions via density functional theory

L. -A. Wu, M. S. Sarandy, D. A. Lidar +1

Density functional theory (DFT) is shown to provide a novel conceptual and computational framework for entanglement in interacting many-body quantum systems. DFT can, in particular…

Holonomic quantum computation in decoherence-free subspaces

L. -A. Wu, P. Zanardi, D. A. Lidar

We show how to realize, by means of non-abelian quantum holonomies, a set of universal quantum gates acting on decoherence-free subspaces and subsystems. In this manner we bring to…

Entanglement Observables and Witnesses for Interacting Quantum Spin Systems

L. -A. Wu, S. Bandyopadhyay, M. S. Sarandy +1

We discuss the detection of entanglement in interacting quantum spin systems. First, thermodynamic Hamiltonian-based witnesses are computed for a general class of one-dimensional s…

Quantum Phase Transitions and Bipartite Entanglement

Lian-Ao Wu, Marcelo S. Sarandy, Daniel A. Lidar

We develop a general theory of the relation between quantum phase transitions (QPTs) characterized by nonanalyticities in the energy and bipartite entanglement. We derive a functio…

Dressed Qubits

L. -A. Wu, D. A. Lidar

Inherent gate errors can arise in quantum computation when the actual system Hamiltonian or Hilbert space deviates from the desired one. Two important examples we address are spin-…
