Abstract

We investigate the detection of entanglement in $n$-partite quantum states. We obtain practical separability criteria to identify genuinely entangled and nonseparable mixed quantum states. No numerical optimization or eigenvalue evaluation is needed, and our criteria can be evaluated by simple computations involving components of the density matrix. We provide examples in which our criteria perform better than all known separability criteria. Specifically, we are able to detect genuine $n$-partite entanglement which has previously not been identified. In addition, our criteria can be used in today's experiments.

k-separability criterion of mixed multipartite quantum states

Ting Gao, Yan Hong

The $k$-separability of mixed $n$-partite ($n\geq 3$) quantum states is mainly discussed in this paper. We obtain practical $k$-separability criteria to identify $k$-nonseparable mixed multipartite states in arbitrary dimensional quantum systems and detect genuine $n$-partite entanglement ($k=2$) and entanglement ($k=3$) which have previously not been identified. No optimization or eigenvalue evaluation is needed, our criteria can be evaluated by simple computations involving components of the density matrix and can be implemented in today's experiments.

Detection of $k$-nonseparable $n$-partite quantum states

Ting Gao, Yan Hong

The detection of multipartite entanglement in arbitrary dimensional systems is investigated. We derive useful $k$-separability criteria of mixed $n$-partite ($n\geq 3$) quantum states to detect $k$-nonseparable $n$-partite quantum states. Our criteria can be expressed by the elements of the density matrix, which allows a simple and practical evaluation and computation. They are experimentally accessible without quantum state tomography.

Efficient k-separability criteria for mixed multipartite quantum states

Ting Gao, Yan Hong, Yao Lu +1 more

We investigate classification and detection of entanglement of multipartite quantum states in a very general setting, and obtain efficient $k$-separability criteria for mixed multipartite states in arbitrary dimensional quantum systems. These criteria can be used to distinguish $n-1$ different classes of multipartite inseparable states and can detect many important multipartite entangled states such as GHZ states, W states, anti W states, and mixtures thereof. They detect $k$-nonseparable $n$-partite quantum states which have previously not been identified. Here $k=2,3,\cdots,n$. No optimization or eigenvalue evaluation is needed, and our criteria can be evaluated by simple computations involving components of the density matrix. Most importantly, they can be implemented in today's experiments by using at most $\mathcal{O}(n^2)$ local measurements.

Detection of High-Dimensional Genuine Multipartite Entanglement of Mixed States

Marcus Huber, Florian Mintert, Andreas Gabriel +1 more

We derive a general framework to identify genuinely multipartite entangled mixed quantum states in arbitrary-dimensional systems and show in exemplary cases that the constructed criteria are stronger than those previously known. Our criteria are simple functions of the given quantum state and detect genuine multipartite entanglement that had not been identified so far. They are experimentally accessible without quantum state tomography and are easily computable as no optimization or eigenvalue evaluation is needed.

Separability criteria for genuine multiparticle entanglement

Otfried Gühne, Michael Seevinck

We present a method to derive separability criteria for different classes of multiparticle entanglement, especially genuine multiparticle entanglement. The resulting criteria are necessary and sufficient for certain families of states. This, for example, completely solves the problem of classifying N -qubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger states mixed with white noise according to their separability and entanglement properties. Further, the criteria are superior to all known entanglement criteria for many other families; also they allow the detection of bound entanglement. We next demonstrate that they are easily implementable in experiments and discuss applications to the decoherence of multiparticle entangled states.

Detection of genuine multipartite entanglement in arbitrary multipartite systems

Yu Shan Lu, Shao-Ming Fei

We study the genuine multipartite entanglement of arbitrary n-partite quantum states by representing the density matrices in terms of the generalized Pauli operators. We introduce a general framework for detecting genuine multipartite entanglement and non full-separability of multipartite quantum states with arbitrary dimensions based on correlation tensors. Effective criterion is derived to verify the genuine multipartite entanglement. Detailed examples are given to show that the criterion detects more genuine multipartite entanglement than the existing criteria.
