Entanglement in two site Bose-Hubbard model

Abstract

In this paper, we study the decoherence and entanglement properties for the two site Bose-Hubbard model in the presence of a non-linear damping. We apply the techniques of thermo field dynamics and then use Hartree-Fock approximation to solve the corresponding master equation. The expectation values of the approximated field operators appearing in the solution of master equation, are computed self-consistently. We solve this master equation for a small time \(t\) so that we get the analytical solution, thereby we compute the decoherence and entanglement properties of the solution of the two-mode bosonic system.
