Generation and evolution of entanglement in open quantum dynamics

In the framework of the theory of open systems based on completely positive quantum dynamical semigroups, a description of the continuous-variable entanglement for a system consisting of two independent harmonic oscillators interacting with a general environment was given. Using Peres-Simon necessary and sufficient criterion for separability of two-mode Gaussian states, the generation and evolution of entanglement in terms of the covariance matrix for an arbitrary Gaussian input state was described. For some values of diffusion and dissipation coefficients describing the environment, the state keeps for all times its initial type: separable or entangled. In other cases, entanglement generation, entanglement sudden death or a periodic collapse and revival of entanglement take place. The time evolution of the logarithmic negativity, which characterizes the degree of entanglement of the quantum state was analyzed.
