Abstract
The type of environments to which a quantum system is exposed has a significant impact on the quantum system’s entanglement and coherence protection. In this regard, we investigate the time evolution of tripartite entanglement and coherence in GHZ-like state when subject to independent classical environments. In particular, we focus on local environments with the same and mixed disorders, resulting in various Gaussian noisy conditions, namely pure power-law noise, pure fractional Gaussian noise, power-law noise maximized, and fractional Gaussian noise maximized configurations. We show that the environments with mixed disorders are more detrimental than those having single kind of disorder for entanglement and coherence preservation using time-dependent quantum negativity, entanglement witnesses, purity, and decoherence metrics. Besides, there is no ultimate solution for avoiding the negative consequences of fractional Gaussian noise-assisted classical environments in both pure and mixed noise conditions. Not only the noise, but also the number of qubits driven by a certain noise, has been discovered to strongly influence the amount, nature of the decay, and preservation intervals. We also show that the GHZ-like states can be modelled in classical channels driven by pure power-law noise for extended quantum correlations, coherence, and quantum information preservation. In addition, we compare the entanglement measurement efficiency between entanglement witness and negativity measures.

In this section, we give the details of the final density matrices obtained for the time evolution of the three qubits initially prepared in the state \(\rho _{\mathrm{GHZ}}(0)\) under the effects of pure and mixed noisy configurations. Using Eq. (13), we get the final density matrix under pure Gaussian noise case as:
Next, using Eq. (15), we obtained the final density matrix ensemble state as:
where \(\rho _{XYZ}(t) \in \{ \rho _{\mathrm{PLM}}(t), \rho _{\mathrm{FGM}}(t)\}\), \(\mathcal {X}_i=\exp [-n\beta _{\mathcal {A_B}}(t)]\) with \(\beta _{\mathcal {A_B}}(t) \in \beta _{\mathcal {P_L}}(t), \beta _{\mathcal {F_G}}(t)\) and \(\mathcal {Y}=\exp [-n\beta _{mix}(t)]\) with \(\beta _{mix}(t)=\beta _{\mathcal {P_L}}(t)+\beta _{\mathcal {F_G}}(t)\), \(\mathcal {H}_1=1+\mathcal {X}_2+2 \mathcal {Y}\), \(\mathcal {H}_2=1+\mathcal {X}_2-2 \mathcal {Y}\), \(\mathcal {H}_3=1-\mathcal {X}_2\).
