Dynamics of Entanglement in Three Coupled Harmonic Oscillator System with Arbitrary Time-Dependent Frequency and Coupling Constants

Abstract: The dynamics of mixedness and entanglement is examined by solving the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation for three coupled harmonic oscillator system with arbitrary time-dependent frequency and coupling constants parameters. We assume that part of oscillators is inaccessible and remaining oscillators accessible. We compute the dynamics of entanglement between inaccessible and accessible oscillators. In order to show the dynamics pictorially we introduce three quenched models. In the quenched models both mixedness and entanglement exhibit oscillatory behavior in time with multi-frequencies. It is shown that the mixedness for the case of one inaccessible oscillator is larger than that for the case of two inaccessible oscillators in the most time interval. Contrary to the mixedness entanglement for the case of one inaccessible oscillator is smaller than that for the case of two inaccessible oscillators in the most time interval.
