Abstract

Quantum entanglement plays crucial roles in quantum information processing. Quantum entangled states have become the key ingredient in the rapidly expanding field of quantum information science. Although the nonclassical nature of entanglement has been recognized for many years, considerable efforts have been taken to understand and characterize its properties recently. In this review, we introduce some recent results in the theory of quantum entanglement. In particular separability criteria based on the Bloch representation, covariance matrix, normal form and entanglement witness, lower bounds, subadditivity property of concurrence and tangle, fully entangled fraction related to the optimal fidelity of quantum teleportation, and entanglement distillation will be discussed in detail.

An introduction to the theory of quantum entanglement

Fei Shao -

Quantum entangled states play very important roles in quantum information processing,such as quantum teleportation,dense coding,error correction,cryptography,and computation.The theory of entanglement mainly concerns the characterization of quantum entanglement and the classification of quantum states,as well as its applications in quantum information processing.We present some basic concepts and results,including:the relationship between locality and reality in quantum mechanics and Bell inequalities,and that between Bell inequalities and the separability of quantum states;the definition of separability for pure and mixed quantum states,and some separability criteria such as the positive map approach,positive partial transpose,reduction criterion,realignment,entanglement witnesses,and the covariance matrix approach and local uncertainty relations;some entanglement measures such as the entanglement of formation,concurrence,relative entropy,negativity,tangle,entanglement of assistance,and their estimation;the change in entanglement when the physical system evolves or undergoes interaction with the environment.

Concurrence, Tangle and Fully Entangled Fraction of Quantum Entanglement

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

We show that although we can not distill a singlet from many pairs of bound entangled states, the concurrence and tangle of two entangled quantum states are always strictly larger than that of one, even both entangled quantum states are bound entangled. We present a relation between the concurrence and the fidelity of optimal teleportation. We also give new upper and lower bounds for concurrence and tangle.

Multipartite entanglement measures: A review

Mengru Ma, Yinfei Li, Jiangwei Shang

Quantum entanglement, a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics, has captured significant attention in the era of quantum information science. In multipartite quantum systems, entanglement plays a crucial role in facilitating various quantum information processing tasks, such as quantum teleportation and dense coding. In this article, we review the theory of multipartite entanglement measures, with a particular focus on the genuine as well as the operational meaning of multipartite entanglement measures. By providing a thorough and valuable insight on this field, we hope that this review would inspire and guide researchers in their endeavors to further develop novel approaches for characterizing multipartite entanglement.

Quantum Information Processing: A brief overview on Quantum Teleportation

Sovik Roy

Quantum Information Processing (QIP) exploits the principles of quantum mechanics to perform information storage, communication, and computation in ways that are fundamentally impossible within classical frameworks. This article presents a pedagogical overview of the mathematical foundations of quantum information theory, including qubits, Hilbert spaces, linear operators, quantum measurements, tensor products, density operators, and quantum entanglement. Building upon these concepts, we provide a detailed introduction to quantum teleportation, one of the most remarkable protocols in quantum communication. The discussion covers the no cloning theorem, the original teleportation protocol by Bennett et al., experimental realisations of quantum teleportation, and extensions involving probabilistic and multiqubit teleportation schemes. Particular emphasis is placed on the role of entanglement as a communication resource, together with the study of teleportation channels based on bipartite and multipartite quantum states. Various quantitative measures of entanglement, including concurrence, negativity, entanglement of formation, and relative entropy of entanglement, are reviewed alongside teleportation fidelity as a performance metric. Furthermore, the interplay between Bell nonlocality, mixed state entanglement, and teleportation efficiency is examined, followed by a survey of advanced developments such as controlled teleportation, bidirectional teleportation, cluster state teleportation, and recent advances in the Quantum 2.0 era. This review aims to provide students, researchers, and engineers with a coherent introduction to the theoretical foundations and practical significance of quantum teleportation in emerging quantum technologies.

Quantum entanglement

Ryszard Horodecki, Paweł Horodecki, Michał Horodecki +1 more

All our former experience with application of quantum theory seems to say that what is predicted by quantum formalism must occur in the laboratory. But the essence of quantum formalism---entanglement, recognized by Einstein, Podolsky, Rosen, and Schr\"odinger---waited over $70\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\text{years}$ to enter laboratories as a new resource as real as energy. This holistic property of compound quantum systems, which involves nonclassical correlations between subsystems, has potential for many quantum processes, including canonical ones: quantum cryptography, quantum teleportation, and dense coding. However, it appears that this new resource is complex and difficult to detect. Although it is usually fragile to the environment, it is robust against conceptual and mathematical tools, the task of which is to decipher its rich structure. This article reviews basic aspects of entanglement including its characterization, detection, distillation, and quantification. In particular, various manifestations of entanglement via Bell inequalities, entropic inequalities, entanglement witnesses, and quantum cryptography are discussed, and some interrelations are pointed out. The basic role of entanglement in quantum communication within a distant laboratory paradigm is stressed, and some peculiarities such as the irreversibility of entanglement manipulations are also discussed including its extremal form---the bound entanglement phenomenon. The basic role of entanglement witnesses in detection of entanglement is emphasized.

Quantum entanglement criteria / Aini Syahida binti Sumairi

Aini Syahida Sumairi

Entanglement of quantum is a quantum phenomenon which cannot be described using classical physics. This study reviews the quantum entanglement which discusses the various methods which are used to detect the entanglement. The properties of entanglement in the quantum system have been determined through the theoretical analysis of the quantities of nonclassical measure. That leads to the estimation of quantum entanglement with different parameters conditions. The study of the features and the nature of quantum entanglement enhance our understanding of the nature of entanglement processes. Furthermore, the entanglement is useful in the field of information processing where the entanglement is a basic ingredient of quantum information processing.
