A lower bound of concurrence for multipartite quantum states

Abstract

We study the concurrence of arbitrary multipartite mixed quantum states. An explicit lower bound of the concurrence is derived, which detects quantum entanglement of some states better than some separability criteria, and gives sufficient conditions for distilling GHZ states from tripartite states. An interesting relation between the lower bound of the concurrence for bipartite states and for tripartite states has been presented.

Lower bound on concurrence and distillation for arbitrary-dimensional bipartite quantum states

Ming‐Jing Zhao, Xue‐Na Zhu, Shao-Ming Fei +1 more

We present a lower bound of concurrence for arbitrary-dimensional bipartite quantum states. This lower bound may be used to improve all the known lower bounds of concurrence. Moreover, the lower bound gives rise to an operational sufficient criterion of distillability of quantum entanglement. The significance of our result is illustrated by quantitative evaluation of entanglement for entangled states that fail to be identified by the usual concurrence estimation method and by showing the distillability of mixed states that cannot be recognized by other distillability criteria.

Lower bound of concurrence based on positive maps

Xiaosheng Li, Xiu-Hong Gao, Shao-Ming Fei

We study the concurrence of arbitrary dimensional bipartite quantum systems. An explicit analytical lower bound of concurrence is obtained which detects entanglement for some quantum states better than some well-known separability criteria and improves the lower bounds, such as from the positive partial transposition, realignment criteria, and Breuer's entanglement witness.

Entanglement of formation and concurrence for mixed states

Xiu-Hong Gao, Sergio A Albeverio, Kai Chen +2 more

We review some results on analytical computations of the measures for quantum entanglement: entanglement of formation and concurrence. We introduce some estimations of the lower bounds for the entanglement of formation in bipartite mixed states, and of lower bounds for the concurrence in bipartite and tripartite systems. The results on lower bounds for the concurrence are also generalized to arbitrary multipartite systems.

Lower bound of multipartite concurrence based on subquantum state decomposition

Xue‐Na Zhu, Ming‐Jing Zhao, Shao-Ming Fei

We study the entanglement of tripartite quantum states and provide analytical lower bounds of concurrence in terms of the concurrence of substates. The lower bound may improve all of the existing lower bounds of concurrence. The approach is generalized to arbitrary dimensional multipartite systems.

Genuine multipartite entanglement detection and lower bound of multipartite concurrence

Ming Li, Shao-Ming Fei, Xianqing Li‐Jost +1 more

The problems of genuine multipartite entanglement detection and classification are challenging. We show that a multipartite quantum state is genuine multipartite entangled if the multipartite concurrence is larger than certain quantities given by the number and the dimension of the subsystems. This result also provides a classification of various genuine multipartite entanglements. We present a lower bound of the multipartite concurrence in terms of bipartite concurrences. While various operational approaches are available for providing lower bounds of bipartite concurrences, our results give an effective operational way to detect and classify genuine multipartite entanglement. As applications, genuine multipartite entanglement of tripartite systems is analyzed in detail.

Measurable lower bounds on concurrence

Iman Sargolzahi, Sayyed Yahya Mirafzali, Mohsen Sarbishaei

We derive measurable lower bounds on concurrence of arbitrary mixed states, for both bipartite and multipartite cases. First, we construct measurable lower bonds on the purely algebraic bounds of concurrence [F. Mintert et al. (2004), Phys. Rev. lett., 92, 167902]. Then, using the fact that the sum of the square of the algebraic bounds is a lower bound of the squared concurrence, we sum over our measurable bounds to achieve a measurable lower bound on concurrence. With two typical examples, we show that our method can detect more entangled states and also can give sharper lower bonds than the similar ones.
