Entropic Inequalities for Two Coupled Superconducting Circuits

Resumo

We discuss the known construction of two interacting superconducting circuits based on Josephson junctions, which can be precisely engineered and easily controlled. In particular, we use the parametric excitation of two circuits realized by an instant change of the qubit coupling to study entropic and information properties of the density matrix of a composite system. We obtain the density matrix from the initial thermal state and perform its analysis in the approximation of small perturbation parameter and sufficiently low temperature. We also check the subadditivity condition for this system both for the von Neumann entropy and deformed entropies and check the dependence of mutual information on the system temperature. Finally, we discuss the applicability of this approach to describe the two coupled superconducting qubits as harmonic oscillators with limited Hilbert space.
