Nonzero-temperature dynamics near quantum phase transition in the isotropic Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model: an open quantum system approach

摘要

The dynamics of a central qubit system coupled to an isotropic ferromagnetic Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick spin bath at nonzero temperature is studied. We derive exactly the reduced density matrix and investigate the pairwise thermal entanglement, the coherence and the concurrence of the central spins. Through the behavior of these quantities, we show that at very low temperatures the dynamics is sensitive to the presence of the critical point of the environment.
