Employing the trace distance as a measure for the distinguishability of quantum states, we study the influence of initial correlations on the dynamics of open systems. We concentrate on the Jaynes-Cummings model for which the knowledge of the exact joint dynamics of system and reservoir allows the treatment of initial states with arbitrary correlations. As a measure for the correlations in the initial state we consider the trace distance between the system-environment state and the product of its marginal states. In particular, we examine the correlations contained in the thermal equilibrium state for the total system, analyze their dependence on the temperature and on the coupling strength, and demonstrate their connection to the entanglement properties of the eigenstates of the Hamiltonian. A detailed study of the time dependence of the distinguishability of the open system states evolving from the thermal equilibrium state and its corresponding uncorrelated product state shows that the open system dynamically uncovers typical features of the initial correlations.

We present a propagator formalism to investigate the scattering of photons by a cavity QED system that consists of a single two-level atom dressed by a leaky optical cavity field. We establish a diagrammatic method to construct the propagator analytically. This allows us to determine the quantum state of the scattered photons for an arbitrary incident photon packet. As an application, we explicitly solve the problem of a single-photon packet scattered by an initially excited atom.
The quantum thermalization of the Jaynes-Cummings (JC) model in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium open-system cases is sdudied, in which the two subsystems, a two-level system and a single-mode bosonic field, are in contact with either two individual heat baths or a common heat bath. It is found that in the individual heat-bath case, the JC model can only be thermalized when either the two heat baths have the same temperature or the coupling of the JC system to one of the two baths is turned off. In the common heat-bath case, the JC system can be thermalized irrespective of the bath temperature and the system-bath coupling strengths. The thermal entanglement in this system is also studied. A emph{counterintuitive} phenomenon of emph{vanishing} thermal entanglement in the JC system is found and proved.
The dynamics of the Buck and Sukumar model [B. Buck and C.V. Sukumar, Phys. Lett. A 81 (1981) 132] are investigated using different semi-classical information-theory tools. Interesting aspects of the periodicity inherent to the model are revealed and somewhat unexpected features are revealed that seem to be related to the classical-quantum transition.
We study multiphoton blockade and photon-induced tunneling effects in the two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model, where a single-mode cavity field and a two-level atom are coupled via a two-photon interaction. We consider both the cavity-field-driving and atom-driving cases, and find that single-photon blockade and photon-induced tunneling effects can be observed when the cavity mode is driven, while the two-photon blockade effect appears when the atom is driven. For the atom-driving case (the two-photon transition process), we present a criterion of the correlation functions for the multiphoton blockade effect. Specifically, we show that quantum interference can enhance the photon blockade effect in the single-photon cavity-field-driving case. Our results are confirmed by analytically and numerically calculating the correlation function of the cavity-field mode. Our work has potential applications in quantum information processing and paves the way for the study of multiphoton quantum coherent devices.
The theory of non-Hermitian systems and the theory of quantum deformations have attracted a great deal of attention in the last decades. In general, non-Hermitian Hamiltonians are constructed by a textit{ad hoc} manner. Here, we study the (2+1) Dirac oscillator and show that in the context of the $kappa$--deformed Poincare-Hopf algebra its Hamiltonian is non-Hermitian but having real eigenvalues. The non-Hermiticity steams from the $kappa$-deformed algebra. From the mapping in [Bermudez textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. A textbf{76}, 041801(R) 2007], we propose the $kappa$-JC and $kappa$--AJC models, which describe an interaction between a two-level system with a quantized mode of an optical cavity in the $kappa$--deformed context. We find that the $kappa$--deformation modifies the textit{Zitterbewegung} frequencies and the collapse and revival of quantum oscillations. In particular, the total angular momentum in the $z$--direction is not conserved anymore, as a direct consequence of the deformation.
