We investigate the dynamics of nonclassical correlations including concurrence and local quantum uncertainty in the damped Jaynes–Cummings model with an initial system–reservoir correlation. The dynamics of qubit–reservoir correlation and the influence of non-Markovian effect are studied. Furthermore, we consider the double damped Jaynes–Cummings model consisting of two noninteracting qubits locally coupled to independent reservoirs and explore the properties of both qubit–qubit and reservoir–reservoir correlations. The influences of initial correlation and non-Markovian effect on the dynamics of nonclassical correlations are analyzed. It is found that the dynamics for both qubit–qubit and reservoir–reservoir correlations can be significantly changed by the initial correlation and the non-Markovian effect. Finally, we explore the sudden changes of local quantum uncertainty and find that they are closely related to the initial system–environment entanglement.
