Entanglement and dephasing of quantum dissipative systems

T. Stauber, F. Guinea

abstract: The von Neumann entropy of various quantum dissipative models is calculated in order to discuss the entanglement properties of these systems. First, integrable quantum dissipative models are discussed, i.e., the quantum Brownian motion and the quantum harmonic oscillator. In case of the free particle, the related entanglement of formation shows no non-analyticity. In case of the dissipative harmonic oscillator, there is a non-analyticity at the transition of underdamped to overdamped oscillations. We argue that this might be a general property of dissipative systems. We show that similar features arise in the dissipative two level system and study different regimes using sub-Ohmic, Ohmic and and super-Ohmic baths, within a scaling approach.
