Comparative Dynamical Study of a Bound Entangled State

Abstract: The bound entangled state carries noisy entanglement and it is very hard to distill but the usefulness of bound entangled states has been depicted in different applications. This article represents a comparative dynamical study of an open quantum system for one of the bound entangled states proposed by Bennett et al. The study is conducted under the influence of Heisenberg, bi-linear bi-quadratic and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction. During the study, an auxiliary qutrit interacts with one of the qutrits of the selected two qutrit bound entangled state through different interactions. The computable cross-norm or realignment (CCNR) criterion has been used to detect the bound entanglement of the state and the negativity has been applied to measure the free entanglement. From this three-fold study it is observed that, although the auxiliary qutrit plays a significant role during the interaction, the probability amplitude of the qutrit does not affect the open quantum system. Further, it is found that the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction performs better to activate the chosen bound entangled state among all the interactions.
