Comparative investigation of the freezing phenomena for quantum correlations under nondissipative decoherence

Benjamin Aaronson, Rosario Lo Franco, Gerardo Adesso · Physical Review A · 2013

We show that the phenomenon of frozen discord, exhibited by specific classes of two-qubit states under local nondissipative decoherent evolutions, is a common feature of all known bona fide measures of general quantum correlations. All those measures, despite inducing typically inequivalent orderings on the set of nonclassically correlated states, return a constant value in the considered settings. Every communication protocol that relies on quantum correlations as a resource will run with a performance completely unaffected by noise in the specified dynamical conditions. We provide a geometric interpretation of this phenomenon.
