title = "Covariance dynamics and entanglement in translation invariant linear quantum stochastic networks",
abstract = "This paper is concerned with a translation invariant network of identical quantum stochastic systems subjected to external quantum noise. Each node of the network is directly coupled to a finite number of its neighbours. This network is modelled as an open quantum harmonic oscillator and is governed by a set of linear quantum stochastic differential equations (QSDEs). The dynamic variables of the network satisfy the canonical commutation relations (CCRs). Similar large-scale networks can be found, for example, in quantum metamaterials and optical lattices. Using spatial Fourier transform techniques, we obtain a sufficient condition for stability of the network with a finite interaction range, and consider a mean square performance index for the stable network in the thermodynamic limit. In the case when the network consists of one-mode oscillators, the Peres-Horodecki-Simon separability criterion is employed in order to obtain sufficient and necessary conditions for quantum entanglement of bipartite systems of nodes in the Gaussian invariant state. The results on stability and entanglement are extended to the infinite chain of the linear quantum systems by letting the number of nodes go to infinity. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the results.",
