Decoherence, einselection, and the quantum origins of the classical

WH Zurek - Reviews of modern physics, 2003 - APS
The manner in which states of some quantum systems become effectively classical is of
great significance for the foundations of quantum physics, as well as for problems of …

Dynamics of Loschmidt echoes and fidelity decay

T Gorin, T Prosen, TH Seligman, M Žnidarič - Physics Reports, 2006 - Elsevier
Fidelity serves as a benchmark for the reliability in quantum information processes, and has
recently attracted much interest as a measure of the susceptibility of dynamics to …

Chaos, entanglement, and decoherence in the quantum kicked top

S Ghose, R Stock, P Jessen, R Lal, A Silberfarb - Physical Review A—Atomic …, 2008 - APS
We analyze the interplay of chaos, entanglement, and decoherence in a system of qubits
whose collective behavior is that of a quantum kicked top. The dynamical entanglement …

Theory of quantum Loschmidt echoes

T Prosen, TH Seligman… - Progress of Theoretical …, 2003 - academic.oup.com
In this paper we review our recent work on the theoretical approach to quantum Loschmidt
echoes, ie, various properties of the so-called echo dynamics–the composition of forward …

Entanglement and the generation of random states in the quantum chaotic dynamics of kicked coupled tops

CM Trail, V Madhok, IH Deutsch - … Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2008 - APS
We study the dynamical generation of entanglement as a signature of chaos in a system of
periodically kicked coupled tops, where chaos and entanglement arise from the same …

Decoherence from a chaotic environment: An upside-down “oscillator” as a model

R Blume-Kohout, WH Zurek - Physical Review A, 2003 - APS
Chaotic evolutions exhibit exponential sensitivity to initial conditions. This suggests that
even very small perturbations resulting from weak coupling of a quantum chaotic …

Global entangling properties of the coupled kicked tops

R Demkowicz-Dobrzański, M Kuś - … Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2004 - APS
We study global entangling properties of the system of coupled kicked tops testing various
hypotheses and predictions concerning entanglement in quantum chaotic systems. In order …

Subsystem dynamics under random Hamiltonian evolution

M Žnidarič - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
We study time evolution of a subsystem's density matrix under unitary evolution, generated
by a sufficiently complex, say quantum chaotic, Hamiltonian, modeled by a random matrix …

Optimal two-qubit gate for generation of random bipartite entanglement

M Žnidarič - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2007 - APS
We numerically study protocols consisting of repeated applications of two qubit gates used
for generating random pure states. A necessary number of steps needed in order to …

Decoherence of two-qubit systems: a random matrix description

C Pineda, T Gorin, TH Seligman - New Journal of Physics, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We study decoherence of two non-interacting qubits. The environment and its interaction
with the qubits are modelled by random matrices. Decoherence, measured in terms of purity …
