Effect of flipping noise on the entanglement dynamics of a 3x3 system
  Entanglement dynamics of a qutrit-qutrit system under the influence of global, local and multilocal decoherence introduced by phase flip, trit flip and trit phase flip channels is investigated. The negativity and realignment criterion are used to quantify the entanglement of the system. It is shown that the entanglement sudden death and distibility sudden death can be avoided in the presence of phase flip, trit flip and trit-phase flip environments. It is shown that certain free entangled distillable qutrit states become bound entangled or separable i.e. convert into non-distillable states under different flipping noises. It is also seen that local operations do not have any effect on the entanglement dynamics of the system. Further more, no ESD and DSD is seen for the case of trit flip channel.
