Dynamics of quantum correlations of two interfering bipartite Gaussian states

We address the interference of a pair of two-mode Gaussian states, interacting pairwise through a beam-splitter Hamiltonian. In the framework of a suitable phase-space analysis, the correlations generated through the interaction are studied by considering a quantity proportional to the variance of difference between the detected photocurrents of all the possible couples of modes. We use this quantity to demonstrate the invariance through the interaction and the correlations swapping also in the presence of nonideal photodetection.
