Simulation of interaction Hamiltonians by quantum feedback: a comment on the dynamics of information exchange between coupled systems
Year: 2005
Type: article
Abstract: Since quantum feedback is based on classically accessible measurement results, it can provide fundamental insights into the dynamics of quantum systems by making available classical information on the evolution of system properties and on the conditional forces acting on the system. In this paper, the feedback induced interaction dynamics between a pair of quantum systems is analysed. It is pointed out that any interaction Hamiltonian can be simulated by local feedback if the levels of decoherence are sufficiently high. The boundary between genuine entanglement generating quantum interactions and non-entangling classical interactions is identified and the nature of the information exchange between two quantum systems during an interaction is discussed.
