Two schemes of amplification of two-mode squeezed light in the continuous variable EPR-state are considered. They are based on the integrals of motion, which allow conserving quantum correlations whereas the power of each mode may increase. One of these schemes involves a three-photon parametric process in a nonlinear transparent medium and the other is a Raman type interaction of light with atomic ensemble. A generalization to multimode squeezed light is discussed.

In this paper, we analyze nonclassical correlations between bipartite states in two optomechanical systems. The first system (Sec. 2) consists of two nanoresonators spatially separated by broadband squeezed light, where each cavity has a fixed mirror and a movable one. The second system (Sec. 3) is an atom-optomechanical system consisting of an atomic ensemble placed inside an optical nanoresonator with a vibrating mirror. For both optomechanical systems, we give the Hamiltonian and the explicit expression of covariance matrix leading to the quantum equations describing the dynamic evolution of the system. Then, the nonclassical correlations are quantified using the logarithmic negativity and Gaussian quantum discord. We propose also a scheme for examining the evolution of Gaussian quantum steering and its asymmetry in each system. We show that the entanglement of the two mechanical modes is very strongly related to the parameters characterizing the environment where the movable mirrors evolve, in particular the squeeze parameter, the optomechanical cooperativity and thermal bath temperature.

We investigate the transfer of bipartite (measured by cocurrence) and multipartite (measured by global discord) quantum correlations though spin chains under phase decoherence. The influence of phase decoherence and anisotropy parameter upon quantum correlations transfer is investigated. On the one hand, in the case of no phase decoherence, there is no steady state quantum correlations between spins. On the other hand, if the phase decoherence is larger than zero, the bipartite quantum correlations can be transferred through a Heisenberg XXX chain for a long time and there is steady state bipartite entanglement. For a Heisenberg XX chain, bipartite entanglement between two spins is destroyed completely after a long time. Multipartite quantum correlations of all spins are more robust than bipartite quantum correlations. Thus, one can store multipartite quantum correlations in spin chains for a long time under phase decoherence.

Abstract Objectives Liver dysfunction is prevalent in heart failure (HF) patients and it can bring a poor prognosis. Presently, albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score has been designed as an effective and convenient scoring system for assessing liver function, but the correlation linking ALBI and in-hospital mortality in HF patients remains unclear.Methods and Results A total of 9749 patients with HF (from January 2013 to December 2018) was enrolled and retrospectively analyzed.
The main outcome is in-hospital death. We examined and analyzed ALBI as a continuous variable as well as according to 3 categories. Following adjustment for multivariable, patients which occurred in-hospital death was remarkably elevated in Tertile 3 group (ALBI>-2.27) (OR=1.670, 95% CI: 1.231~2.265, p=0.001), relative to the other two groups (Tertile 1: <-2.59; Tertile 2: -2.59~-2.27). When ALBI was inspected as a continuous variable, the incidence of HF patients with in-hospital death will increase by 8.2%. (For ALBI score per 0.1 score increasing, OR=1.082, 95% CI: 1.052~1.113, p<0.001). ALBI score for estimating in-hospital mortality under C-statistic was 0.650 (95% CI: 0.641~0.660, p<0.001) and the cut-off value of ALBI score was -2.32 with a specificity of 0.630 and a sensitivity of 0.632. Moreover, ALBI score can enhance the estimation potential of NT-proBNP (NT-proBNP+ALBI vs NT-proBNP: C-statistic: z=1.990, p=0.0467; net reclassification improvement=0.4012, p<0.001; integrated discrimination improvement= 0.0082, p<0.001). Conclusions In patients with HF, ALBI score was an independent prognosticator of in-hospital death. The predictive significance of NT-proBNP +ALBI was superior to NT-proBNP, and ALBI score can enhance the estimation potential of NT-proBNP.

We propose a measure of nonclassical correlation [Formula: see text] in terms of local Gaussian unitary operations based on square of the fidelity [Formula: see text] for bipartite continuous-variable systems. This quantity is easier to be calculated or estimated and is a remedy for the local ancilla problem associated with the geometric measurement-induced nonlocality. A simple computation formula of [Formula: see text] for any [Formula: see text]-mode Gaussian states is presented and an estimation of [Formula: see text] for any [Formula: see text]-mode Gaussian states is given. For any [Formula: see text]-mode Gaussian states, [Formula: see text] does not increase after performing a local Gaussian channel on the unmeasured subsystem. Comparing [Formula: see text] in scale with other quantum correlations such as Gaussian geometric discord for two-mode symmetric squeezed thermal states reveals that [Formula: see text] is much better in detecting quantum correlations of Gaussian states.

Theoretical debates about the efficiency of sharecropping discuss risk-sharing in relation to farmers' wealth and credit, as one explanatory factor. This perspective is explored here in the southern Portuguese province of Alentejo, from the seventeenth to the mid-nineteenth century. Three points are made: (1) leasing and sharecropping coexisted on the same land; (2) there was no unequivocal relationship between risk sharing, on the one hand, and the contractual mode of tenancy (fixed-rent or sharecropping), on the other; and (3) relating risk-sharing, defined as a continuous variable, with social differentiation of demand for tenancies provides a rationale for a hypothetical long-term shift in contracts, from medieval sharecropping to fixed-rent tenancies with sharecrop subletting in the nineteenth century.

In this paper, we investigate the steady-state of quantum correlation measurement of hybrid optomechanical systems. The first system consists of a single optomechanical system simultaneously coupled to a mechanical oscillator. While the second system is a hybrid optomechanical system consisting of an atomic ensemble placed in between the optical cavity and mirror. For both optomechanical systems, we formulate the Hamiltonian and the explicit expression of the covariance matrix leading to the dynamic of the system. Under the linearization approximation, we investigate the steady-state quantum correlations which are quantified through the correlation function of non-Hermitian operators, while the logarithmic negativity is used to quantify the amount of quantum entanglement between the subsystems. Furthermore, our proposed quantum correlation function can be used to quantify the entangled bipartite states that are correlative and transfer information. It is found that the transfer of quantum correlations between the subsystem is related to the detuning and coupling strength. Our results provide a realistic route toward remote quantum entanglement detection and a framework of future realistic fiber-optic quantum network operating applications.

We study the quantum correlations between source and target pairs in different protocols of entanglement distillation of one kind of entangled states. We find that there does not exist any quantum correlation in the standard recurrence distillation protocol, while quantum discord and even quantum entanglement are always present in the other two cases of the improved distillation protocols. In the three cases, the distillation efficiency improved with the quantum correlations enhanced.
