Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering is an intermediate quantum correlation that lies in between entanglement and Bell non-locality. Its temporal analogue, temporal steering, has recently been shown to have applications in quantum information and open quantum systems. Here, we show that there exists a hierarchy among the three temporal quantum correlations: temporal inseparability, temporal steering, and macrorealism. Given that the temporal inseparability can be used to define a measure of quantum causality, similarly the quantification of temporal steering can be viewed as a weaker measure of direct cause and can be used to distinguish between direct cause and common cause in a quantum network.

Quantum steering refers to correlations that can be classified as intermediate between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. Every state exhibiting Bell nonlocality exhibits also quantum steering and every state exhibiting quantum steering is also entangled. In low dimensional cases similar hierarchical relations have been observed between the temporal counterparts of these correlations. Here, we study the hierarchy of such temporal correlations for a general multilevel quantum system. We demonstrate that the same hierarchy holds for two definitions of state over time. In order to compare different types of temporal correlations, we show that temporal counterparts of Bell nonlocality and entanglement can be quantified with a temporal nonlocality robustness and temporal entanglement robustness. Our numerical result reveal that in contrast to temporal steering, for temporal nonlocality to manifest itself we require the initial state not to be in a completely mixed state.
We investigate the dynamics of quantum correlations (QC) under the effects of reservoir memory, as a resource for quantum information and computation tasks. Quantum correlations of two-qubit systems are used for implementing quantum teleportation successfully, and for investigating how teleportation fidelity, violation of Bell-CHSH inequality, quantum steering and entanglement are connected with each other under the influence of noisy environments. Both Markovian and non-Markovian channels are considered, and it is shown that the decay and revival of correlations follow the hierarchy of quantum correlations in the state space. Noise tolerance of quantum correlations are checked for different types of unital and non-unital quantum channels, with and without memory. The quantum speed limit time $(tau_{QSL})$ is investigated from the perspective of memory of quantum noise, and the corresponding dynamics is used to analyze the evolution of quantum correlations. We establish the connection between information backflow, quantum speed limit time and dynamics of quantum correlations for non-Markovian quantum channels.
Markovianity lies at the heart of classical communication problems. This in turn makes the information-theoretic characterization of Markovian processes worthwhile. Data processing inequalities are ubiquitous in this sense, assigning necessary conditions for all Markovian processes. We address here the problem of the information-theoretic analysis of constraints on Markovian processes in the quantum regime. Firstly, we show the existence of a novel class of quantum data processing inequalities called here quantum Markov monogamy inequalities. This new class of necessary conditions on quantum Markovian processes is inspired by its counterpart for classical Markovian processes, and thus providing a strong link between classical and quantum constraints on Markovianity. Secondly, we show the relevance of such inequalities by considering an example of non-Markovian behaviour witnessed by a monogamy inequality, nevertheless, do not violating any of the remaining data processing inequalities. Lastly, we show how this inequalities can be used to witness non-Markovianity at the level of the process tensor formalism.
The complete characterisation of non-Markovian dynamics on quantum devices can be achieved with experiments on the system using a procedure known as process tensor tomography. However, through either hardware or computational restrictions, tomographically complete estimation is usually out of reach. Here, we present methods for bounding any desired facet of multi-time processes only with limited data to arbitrary accuracy that depends on data availability. We then use this method to estimate the strength of non-Markovian memory and construct conditional Markov order models, which are far less complex yet possess high predictive power. Finally, we display the efficacy and utility of our theoretical methods with experimental case studies on IBM Quantum devices.
Space and time are crucial twins in physics. In quantum mechanics, spatial correlations already reveal nonclassical features, such as entanglement, and have bred many quantum technologies. However, the nature of quantum temporal correlations still remains in vague. In this Letter, based on the entangled-history formalism, we prove rigorously that temporal correlations are equivalent to spatial correlations. The effect of temporal correlations corresponds to a quantum channel. The resulting quantifications and classifications of quantum temporal correlations are illustrated in a natural way. Our proposed procedures also show how to determine temporal correlations completely.
