Limit temperature for entanglement in generalized statistics
Creators
Description
We discuss the main properties of general thermal states derived from non-additive entropic forms and their use for studying quantum entanglement. It is shown that all these states become more mixed as the temperature increases, approaching the full random state for T→∞. The formalism is then applied to examine the limit temperature for entanglement in a two-qubit XXZ Heisenberg chain, which exhibits the peculiar feature of being independent of the applied magnetic field in the conventional von Neumann based statistics. In contrast, this temperature is shown to be field dependent in a generalized statistics, even for small deviations from the standard form. Results for the Tsallis-based statistics are examined in detail
