1 Introduction
Quantum coherence, stemming from quantum superposition rule, is thought of a special feature of quantum mechanic like entanglement and other quantum correlations. Quantum coherence is an essential ingredient in quantum information processing,[1-3] quantum metrology,[4-6] quantum optics,[7-9] low-temperature thermodynamics[10-17] and quantum biology.[18-23] Recently, a framework to quantify coherence has been proposed,[24] and various quantum coherence measures, such as the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence,[24] relative entropy of coherence,[24] trace norm of coherence,[25] Tsallis relative $\alpha$ entropies,[26] and Relative Rényi $\alpha$ monotones,[27] have been defined. By means of the coherence measures, a variety of properties of quantum coherence, such as the relations between quantum coherence and quantum correlations,[28-32] the freezing phenomenon of coherence,[33-34] have been investigated.
Quantum coherence is a useful physical resource. However, quantum systems inevitably subject to noise, which may result in the disappearance of coherence.[35] Similarly to the state protection in such a situation based on measurement reversal from weak measurement,[36] it is important to study the conditions under which the quantum coherence does not deteriorate under evolution of the system. Hence, the concept of frozen coherence was proposed, and the authors in Ref. [33] studied the dynamical conditions under which quantum coherence is totally unaffected by quantum noise. For one qubit system, it has been shown that no nontrival condition exists such that the relative entropy coherence and the $l_1$ norm coherence are simultaneously frozen under any quantum channel. Experimentally, the froze phenomenon for relative entropy of coherence,[24] fidelity-based measure of coherence,[30] and trace norm of coherence[33] for two and four qubits under the phase damping channel were observed in a nuclear magnetic resonance system.[37]
In this article, we investigate the coherence evolution in Bell-diagonal states based on $l_{1}$-norm of coherence and relative entropy of coherence, when the first subsystem undergoes Markovian channels. We find that the relative entropy and the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of the Bell-diagonal states under depolarizing channel decreases at first and then increases. In particular, we find the phenomenon of frozen coherence occurs for special Bell-diagonal states under bit-phase flip channel in terms of the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence. It is shown that the occurrence of frozen coherence depends on the type of measures of coherence. We also study the coherence evolution of Bell-diagonal states when the first subsystem undergoes $n$ times Markovian channels. We find that the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal states under depolarizing channel decreases initially then increases for small $n$ and tends to $0$ for large $n$. We discuss the dynamics of coherence of the Bell-diagonal states under two independent local Markovian channels of the same type.
2 Coherence Evolution of Bell-Diagonal States under Markovian Channels with One Parameter of Decoherence Probability p
Under fixed reference basis, the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of state $\rho$ is defined by
$$ C_{l_{1}}(\rho)=\sum_{i\neq j}|\rho_{i,j}|, $$
and the relative entropy of coherence is given by
$$ C_{r}(\rho)=S(\rho_{\rm diag})-S(\rho), $$
where $S(\rho)=-\text{Tr}{\rho\log\rho}$ is von Neumann entropy.Throu\-gh out the paper, we take $\{|00\rangle$, $|01\rangle$,
$|10\rangle$, and $|11\rangle\}$ the standard computational basis for two-qubit states.
A two-qubit Bell-diagonal state can be written as
$$ \rho=\frac{1}{4}\Bigl(I\otimes I+\sum_{i=1}^3c_i\sigma_i\otimes\sigma_i\Bigr)\,, $$
where $\{\sigma_i\}_{i=1}^3$ are the Pauli matrices.
(i) it Coherence Evolution of Bell-Diagonal States under Markovian Channels on the First Subsystem
We will consider the evolution of a quantum state $\rho$ under a trace-preserving quantum operation $\varepsilon(\rho)$,[38]
$$ \varepsilon(\rho) = \sum_{i,j} (E_i\otimes E_j) \rho (E_i \otimes E_j)^\dagger, $$
where $\{E_k\}$ is the set of Kraus operators associated to a decohering process of a single qubit,with $\sum_k E_k^\dagger E_k = I$. Typical channels are listed by the Kraus operators in Table 1.[39]
Tab. 1 Kraus operators for the quantum channels: bit flip (BF), phase flip (PF),bit-phase flip (BPF), depolarizing channel (DEP), and generalized amplitude damping (GAD), where $p$ and $\gamma$ are decoherence probabilities, $0<p<1$, $0<\gamma<1$. |
 |
The decoherence processes BF, PF, BPF, and DEP in Table 1 preserve the Bell-diagonal form of the density operator $\rho$.For the case of GAD, the Bell-diagonal form is kept for arbitrary $\gamma$ and $p=1/2$. In this situation, one has
$$ \varepsilon(\rho)=\frac{1}{4}\Bigl(I\otimes I+ \sum_{i=1}^3c^\prime_i\sigma_i\otimes\sigma_i\Bigr),(4) $$
where the values of the $c^\prime_1$, $c^\prime_2$, $c^\prime_3$ are given in Table 2.[39]
Tab. 2 Correlation coefficients for the quantum operations: bit flip (BF), phase flip (PF),bit-phase flip (BPF), depolarizing channel (DEP), and generalized amplitude damping (GAD). For GAD, we have fixed $p=1/2$ and replaced $\gamma$ by $p$. |
 |
In the standard computational basis $\{|00\rangle, |01\rangle, |10\rangle, |11\rangle\}$,the density matrix has the form
$$ \rho^\prime= \frac{1}{4} \pmatrix 1+c_3^\prime 0 0 c_1^\prime -c_2^\prime \\ 0 1-c_3^\prime c_1^\prime+c_2^\prime 0 \\ 0 c_1^\prime +c_2^\prime 1-c_3^\prime 0 \\ c_1^\prime -c_2^\prime 0 0 1+c_3^\prime $$
where $c_{1}^\prime, c_{2}^\prime, c_{3}^\prime\in[-1,1]1$. From Eqs.(1) and (2) we have
$$ C_{l_{1}}(\rho^\prime)=\frac{1}{2} (|c_1^\prime +c_2^\prime|+|c_1^\prime -c_2^\prime|), $$
$$C_{r}(\rho^\prime)=S(\rho^\prime_{\rm diag})-S(\rho^\prime) =\frac{1}{4}(1-c_{1}^\prime-c_{2}^\prime-c_{3}^\prime)\log(1-c_{1}^\prime-c_{2}^\prime-c_{3}^\prime) +\frac{1}{4}(1-c_{1}^\prime+c_{2}^\prime+c_{3}^\prime)\log(1-c_{1}^\prime+c_{2}^\prime+c_{3}^\prime) +\frac{1}{4}(1+c_{1}^\prime-c_{2}^\prime+c_{3}^\prime)\log(1+c_{1}^\prime-c_{2}^\prime+c_{3}^\prime) +\frac{1}{4}(1+c_{1}^\prime+c_{2}^\prime-c_{3}^\prime)\log(1+c_{1}^\prime+c_{2}^\prime-c_{3}^\prime) -\frac{1+c_{3}^\prime}{2}\log(1+c_{3}^\prime)-\frac{1-c_{3}^\prime}{2}\log(1-c_{3}^\prime)\,.$$
From Eq.(6) and Eq.(7) we have the evolution of the $l_{1}$ norm coherence and the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state, with $c_{1}=0.3$, $c_{2}=-0.4$, and $c_{3}=0.56$ under local nondissipative channels, see Fig. 1. For amplitude damping channel the Kraus operators are given by
$$E_0=\left( \begin{matrix}1& 0\\0 & \sqrt{1-p}\\\end{matrix} \right),E_1=\left( \begin{matrix}0& \sqrt{p}\\0 & 0\\\end{matrix} \right)$$
$ 0 \leq p\leq 1$. Under the amplitude damping channel the Bell-diagonal states are mapped to the output state $\rho_{adc}$,
$$\rho_{adc} = \frac{1}{4}\pmatrix2-(1-c_3)(1-p) 0 0 (c_1 -c_2)(1-p)^{{1}/{2}} \\0 2-(1+c_3)(1-p) (c_1 +c_2)(1-p)^{{1}/{2}} 0 \\0 (c_1 +c_2)(1-p)^{{1}/{2}} (1-c_3)(1-p) 0 \\(c_1 -c_2)(1-p)^{{1}/{2}} 0 0 (1+c_3)(1-p)$$
where $c_{1}, c_{2}, c_{3}\in[-1,1]$. The $l_{1}$ norm coherence and the relative entropy of coherence can be directly calculated by using Eqs.(1) and (2) for $c_{1}=0.3$, $c_{2}=-0.4$, and $c_{3}=0.56$, see Fig.1.
Fig.1 (Color online) (a) Relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal states $c_{1}=0.3, c_{2}=-0.4, c_{3}=0.56$ under bit flip(Cbf), phase flip(Cpf), bit-phase flip(Cbpf), depolarizing(Cdep), amplitude damping(Cad), generalized amplitude damping(Cgad) as a function of $p$;(b) $l_{1}$ norm of coherence for Bell-diagonal states $c_{1}=0.3, c_{2}=-0.4, c_{3}=0.56$ under bit flip(cbf),phase flip(cpf), bit-phase flip(cbpf), depolarizing(cdep), amplitude damping(cad), generalized amplitude damping(cgad). |
We see that the coherence under the relative entropy and the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence behaviours similarly. Under the depolarizing channel, both the relative entropy and the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence decrease first and then increase. As $0\leq p\leq1$, according to Table 2 and Eq.(6), the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of the Bell-diagonal states under bit-phase flip channel is $({1}/{2})(|0.3(1-p)^{2}-0.4|+|0.3(1-p)^{2}+0.4|)=0.4$. Hence if the first subsystem goes through bit-phase flip channel, frozen coherence under $l_{1}$ norm occurs (see blue line in Fig.1(b)).On the other hand, the relative entropy of coherence for the same Bell-diagonal state under bit-phase flip channel decreases as $p$ increases. Above all, the occurrence of frozen coherence depends on the type of measures of coherence. The same phenomenon shows up for the case of bit flip channel.

For GAD, we have fixed $p=1/2$ and replaced $\gamma$ by $p$. |

(ii) Coherence Evolution under $n$ Times Markovian Channels on the First Subsystem Next, we consider the coherence dynamics of Bell-diagonal states under $n$ times Markovian channels on the first subsystem. As the decoherence processes BF, PF, BPF, DEP, and GAD preserve the Bell-diagonal form of the density operator, if a Bell-diagonal state goes through the channel $n$ times, the parameters of the output state are given by $c^\prime_1$, $c^\prime_2$, $c^\prime_3$ given in Table 3. Using Eq.(7),we can obtain the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state with $c_{1}=0.3$, $c_{2}=-0.4$, and $c_{3}=0.56$ under $n$ times various Markovian noise channels, see Fig.2.
On the other hand, if the first subsystem of Bell-diagonal state goes through the amplitude damping channel, the output state $\rho_{adc}^{(1)}$ is given by
$$ \rho_{adc}^{(1)}=E_0\otimes I \rho^{ab} E_0^\dagger\otimes I + E_1\otimes I \rho^{ab} E_1^\dagger\otimes I.$$
If the first subsystem goes through this channel twice, the output state $\rho_{adc}^{(2)}$ is as follows:
$$ \rho_{adc}^{(2)}=E_0\otimes I \rho_{adc}^{(1)} E_0^\dagger\otimes I + E_1\otimes I \rho_{adc}^{(1)} E_1^\dagger\otimes I.$$
If the first subsystem goes through the amplitude damping channel $n$ times, then the output state $\rho_{adc}^{(n)}$ is of the form
$$ \rho_{adc}^{(n)}=E_0\otimes I \rho_{adc}^{(n-1)} E_0^\dagger\otimes I + E_1\otimes I \rho_{adc}^{(n-1)} E_1^\dagger\otimes I,$$
which can be rewritten as
$$ \rho_{adc}^{(n)}=\sum_{i_1,i_2,\ldots, i_n=0,1} E_{i_1i_2\cdots i_n} \otimes I \rho^{ab} E_{i_1i_2\cdots i_n}^\dagger\otimes I, $$
with $E_{i_1i_2\cdots i_n}=E_{i_1}E_{i_2}\cdots E_{i_n}$.Due to the properties of operators $E_0$ and $E_1$ in the amplitude damping channel
$$ E_1^2=0, \quad E_0E_1=E_1,\quad E_1E_0=\sqrt{1-p}E_1, $$
$\rho_{adc}^{(n)}$ is reduced to the following form
$$ \rho_{adc}^{(n)}=E_0^n \otimes I \rho^{ab} (E_0^n)^\dagger\otimes I +\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} E_1 E_0^{n-i-1} \otimes I \rho^{ab} (E_1 E_0^{n-i-1})^\dagger \otimes I. $$
By straightforward calculation, we obtain
$$\rho_{adc}^{(n)}=\frac{1}{4}\pmatrix2-(1-c_{3})(1-p)^{n} 0 0 (c_{1}-c_{2})(1-p)^{{n}/{2}}\\0 2-(1+c_{3})(1-p)^{n} (c_{1}+c_{2})(1-p)^{{n}/{2}} 0\\0 (c_{1}+c_{2})(1-p)^{{n}/{2}} (1-c_{3})(1-p)^{n} 0\\(c_{1}-c_{2})(1-p)^{{n}/{2}} 0 0 (1+c_{3})(1-p)^{n}$$

As an example, the relative entropy of coherence of $\rho_{adc}^{(n)}$ for Bell-diagonal state $c_{1}=0.3$, $c_{2}=-0.4$, and $c_{3}=0.56$ is shown in Fig.2(f).One can see that when $p$ approaches to $1$, the relative entropy of coherence approaches to a constant for large $n$, that is, frozen coherence almost appears,see Fig.2(a). A similar behaviour can be seen in the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal states under $n$ times bit-phase flip channel.But these coherences gather together independent of $n$, see Fig.2(c). When $p$ increases, the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state under depolarizing channel decreases initially and then increases.It is worth mentioning that the coherence tends to $0$ as $p$ approaches to $1$ for large $n$, see Fig.2(d). Relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal states under $n$ times phase flip channel and generalized amplitude damping channel decreases as $p$ increases. The curvature gradually becomes large for large $n$, see Figs.2(b) and 2(e). When $p$ increases, the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal states under $n$ times amplitude damping channel also decreases. But the curvature gets smaller at first and then larger as $n$ increases, see Fig.2(f).
(iii) Coherence Evolution under $n$ Times Amplitude Damping Channel on Both Two Subsystems of Bell-Diagonal States
Fig.3 (Color online) Relative entropy of coherence for that both subsystems of Bell-diagonal states$c_{1}=0.3, c_{2}=-0.4, c_{3}=0.56$ undergo the amplitude damping channel$n$ times: $n$=1~(black line), $n$=2~(orange line), $n$=3~(blue line), $n$=10~(green line), $n$=100~(red line). |
Furthermore, if two subsystems both go through the amplitude damping channel $n$ times, the output state is given by
$$ \rho^{(n)}=\sum_{i_1,i_2,\ldots, i_n,j_1,j_2,\ldots, j_n=0,1}E_{i_1i_2\cdots i_n}\otimes E_{j_1j_2\cdots j_n} \rho E_{i_1i_2\cdots i_n}^\dagger \otimes E_{j_1j_2\cdots j_n}^\dagger.$$
By straightforward calculation, we obtain the output state $\rho_{adc}^{(n,n)}$ of Bell-diagonal state under bi-side amplitude damping channel,
$$\rho_{adc}^{(n,n)}=\frac{1}{4}\left( \begin{matrix}x& 0 & 0 & (c_{1}-c_{2})(1-p)^{n}\\0& y & (c_{1}+c_{2})(1-p)^{n}& 0\\0& (c_{1}+c_{2})(1-p)^{n} & y & 0\\(c_{1}-c_{2})(1-p)^{n}& 0 & 0 & (1+c_{3})(1-p)^{2n}\end{matrix} \right)$$
where $x=4-4(1-p)^{n}+(1+c_{3})(1-p)^{2n}$,$y=2(1-p)^{n}-(1+c_{3})(1-p)^{2n}$.
Using Eq.(2), we have the relative entropy of coherence for the case that both of the subsystems of Bell-diagonal states undergo $n$ times amplitude damping channel, see Fig.3, for $c_{1}=0.3$,$c_{2}=-0.4$, and $c_{3}=0.56$. We find that the relative entropy of coherence decreases as $p$ increases. As $n$ increases,the curves have larger curvature.

In this section, we discuss the dynamics of coherence of a two-qubit Bell-diagonal state undergoing two independent local Markovian channels of the same type but of different decoherence rates. There are three types of local Markovian channels: bit-flip noise, phase-flip noise, and bit-phase-flip, described by the Kraus operators in Table 4, respectively.
Any Bell-diagonal state $\rho$ given by Eq.(3) evolves to another Bell-diagonal state Eq.(5) under these channels. The corresponding coefficients are listed on the Table 5. As an example, from Eq.(7) we have the dynamical behaviors of the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state $c_{1}=0.3$, $c_{2}=-0.4$, and $c_{3}=0.56$ under the bi-side same type Markovian channel of bit flip (cbf), phase flip (cpf), bit-phase flip (cbpf), see Fig.4.Interestingly, the corresponding coherences have the relation, cbfp$ >$cbf$>$cpf.When $p$ and $q$ increase, the coherence decrease and the coherence under phase flip channel tends to $0$.
Furthermore, if both two subsystems go through the same type channel $n$ times,the Bell-diagonal state $\rho$ given by Eq.(3) also evolves to another Bell-diagonal state (5). The corresponding coefficients are listed in Table 6. As an example, from Eq.(7) we obtain the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state $c_{1}=0.3,c_{2}=-0.4, c_{3}=0.56$ under bi-side same type Markovian channel $n$ times.
In Fig.5, we can see that when $n$ becomes larger, the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state under bi-side same type Markovian channel tends to a constant quickly as $p$ and $n$ increase.

 |
In this section, we discuss the dynamics of coherence of a two-qubit Bell-diagonal state under two different local Markovian channels. From the phase-flip channel, bit-flip channel and bit-phase-flip channel given by the Kraus operators in Table 7, respectively,any Bell-diagonal state $\rho$ given by Eq.(3) evolves to another Bell-diagonal state (5) under two different local Markovian channels. The corresponding coefficients are listed in Table 8.As an example, from Eq.(7) the dynamical behavior of the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state $c_{1}=0.3, c_{2}=-0.4, c_{3}=0.56$ under the bi-side different Markovian channels are shown in Fig. 6. It can be seen that when $p$ and $q$ increase, the relative entropy of coherence decreases under all bi-side channels. In particular, when $q$ and $p$ approach to $1$, the coherences for Cbf-pf and Cpf-bpf tend to $0$, see Figs.6(a) and 6(c). When $q$ and $p$ approach $1$ simultaneously, the coherences for Cbf-bpf approaches $0$, see Fig.6(b).
Furthermore, we discuss the dynamics of coherence of a two-qubit Bell-diagonal state under two different local Markovian channels $n$ times. Any Bell-diagonal state $\rho$ given by Eq.(3) evolves to another Bell-diagonal state (5) under two different local Markovian channels $n$ times. The corresponding coefficients are listed in Table 9. In Fig.7, as an example, from Eq.(7) we have the dynamical behaviors of the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal state $c_{1}=0.3, c_{2}=-0.4, c_{3}=0.56$ under the bi-side different Markovian channels $10$ times. Comparing with Fig.6, as soon as $p$ and $q$ increase, the relative entropy of coherence under all the bi-side channel tends to $0$ suddenly.The changing trend of the relative entropy of coherence is controlled by $q$, see Fig.7(a). The relative entropy of coherence under the phase-flip channel and bit-phase-flip channel $n=10$ times is controlled by $p$, see Fig.7(c). Soon as $q$ and $p$ increase simultaneously, the relative entropy of coherence under the bit-flip channel and bit-phase-flip channel $n=10$ times approaches $0$, see Fig.7(b).

5 Summary
In this work, we have investigated the $l_{1}$-norm of coherence and the relative entropy of coherence under the channels of bit flip, phase flip, bit-phase flip,depolarizing, amplitude damping, generalized amplitude damping on the first subsystem for Bell-diagonal states.In particular, we find that the $l_{1}$ norm of coherence of the special Bell-diagonal state under bit-phase flip channel is constant: frozen coherence under $l_{1}$ norm occurs. On the other hand, the relative entropy of coherence for the same Bell-diagonal state under bit-phase flip channel decreases as $p$ increases.It has been shown that the occurrence of frozen coherence depends on the type of measures of coherence.
We have studied the coherence evolution under Markovian channels on the first subsystem $n$ times.We have discussed the dynamics of coherence of the Bell-diagonal states under two independent same type local Markovian channels of bit-flip, phase-flip, and bit-phase-flip.We have shown the dynamical behaviors of the relative entropy of coherence for Bell-diagonal states under the bi-side different Markovian channel. Furthermore, we have discussed the dynamics of coherence of Bell-diagonal states under two different local Markovian channels $n$ times.Our results highlight the investigations of coherence evolution under local quantum channels.
