The topological phase factor induced on interfering electrons by external quantum electromagnetic fields has been studied. Two and three electron interference experiments inside distant cavities are considered and the influence of correlated photons on the phase factors is investigated. It is shown that the classical or quantum correlations of the irradiating photons are transferred to the topological phases. The effect is quantified in terms of Weyl functions for the density operators of the photons and illustrated with particular examples. The scheme employs the generalized phase factor as a mechanism for information transfer from the photons to the electric charges. In this sense, the scheme may be useful in the context of flying qubits (corresponding to the photons) and stationary qubits (electrons), and the conversion from one type to the other.

We study the geometric Uhlmann phase of entangled mixed states in a composite system made of two coupled spin-$frac 1 2$ particles with a magnetic field acting on one of them. Within a depolarizing channel setup, an exact analytical expression for su
ch a phase in each subsystem is derived. We find an explicit connection to the concurrence of the depolarizing channel density matrix, which allows to characterize the features of the Uhlmann phase in terms of the degree of entanglement in the system. In the space of field direction and coupling parameter, it exhibits a phase singularity revealing a topological transition between orders with different winding numbers. The transition occurs for fields lying in the equator of the sphere of directions and at critical values of the coupling which can be controlled by tuning the depolarization strength. Notably, under these conditions the concurrence of the composite system is bounded to the range $[0,1/2]$. We also compare the calculated Uhlmann phase to an interferometric phase, which has been formulated as an alternative for density matrices. The latter does not present a phase vortex, although they coincide in the weak entanglement regime, for vanishing depolarization (pure states). Otherwise they behave clearly different in the strong entanglement regime.
We show that entanglement monotones can characterize the pronounced enhancement of entanglement at a quantum phase transition if they are sensitive to long-range high order correlations. These monotones are found to develop a sharp peak at the critic
al point and to exhibit universal scaling. We demonstrate that similar features are shared by noise correlations and verify that these experimentally accessible quantities indeed encode entanglement information and probe separability.
Quantum phase transitions are often embodied by the critical behavior of purely quantum quantities such as entanglement or quantum fluctuations. In critical regions, we underline a general scaling relation between the entanglement entropy and one of
the most fundamental and simplest measure of the quantum fluctuations, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Then, we show that the latter represents a sensitive probe of superradiant quantum phase transitions in standard models of photons such as the Dicke Hamiltonian, which embodies an ensemble of two-level systems interacting with one quadrature of a single and uniform bosonic field. We derive exact results in the thermodynamic limit and for a finite number N of two-level systems: as a reminiscence of the entanglement properties between light and the two-level systems, the product $Delta xDelta p$ diverges at the quantum critical point as $N^{1/6}$. We generalize our results to the double quadrature Dicke model where the two quadratures of the bosonic field are now coupled to two independent sets of two level systems. Our findings, which show that the entanglement properties between light and matter can be accessed through the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, can be tested using Bose-Einstein condensates in optical cavities and circuit quantum electrodynamics
We present a numerical study of a quantum phase transition from a spin-polarized to a topologically ordered phase in a system of spin-1/2 particles on a torus. We demonstrate that this non-symmetry-breaking topological quantum phase transition (TOQPT
) is of second order. The transition is analyzed via the ground state energy and fidelity, block entanglement, Wilson loops, and the recently proposed topological entropy. Only the topological entropy distinguishes the TOQPT from a standard QPT, and remarkably, does so already for small system sizes. Thus the topological entropy serves as a proper order parameter. We demonstrate that our conclusions are robust under the addition of random perturbations, not only in the topological phase, but also in the spin polarized phase and even at the critical point.
We introduce a class of generalized geometric measures of entanglement. For pure quantum states of $N$ elementary subsystems, they are defined as the distances from the sets of $K$-separable states ($K=2,...,N$). The entire set of generalized geometr
ic measures provides a quantification and hierarchical ordering of the different bipartite and multipartite components of the global geometric entanglement, and allows to discriminate among the different contributions. The extended measures are applied to the study of entanglement in different classes of $N$-qubit pure states. These classes include $W$ and $GHZ$ states, and their symmetric superpositions; symmetric multi-magnon states; cluster states; and, finally, asymmetric generalized $W$-like superposition states. We discuss in detail a general method for the explicit evaluation of the multipartite components of geometric entanglement, and we show that the entire set of geometric measures establishes an ordering among the different types of bipartite and multipartite entanglement. In particular, it determines a consistent hierarchy between $GHZ$ and $W$ states, clarifying the original result of Wei and Goldbart that $W$ states possess a larger global entanglement than $GHZ$ states. Furthermore, we show that all multipartite components of geometric entanglement in symmetric states obey a property of self-similarity and scale invariance with the total number of qubits and the number of qubits per party.
