Witness to detect quantum correlation of bipartite states in arbitrary dimension

Abstract

In this work we introduce a nonlinear witness that is a sufficient condition for detecting the vanishment of quantum correlation of bipartite states. Our result directly generalizes the result of [J. Maziero, R. M. Serra, arXiv:1012.3075] to arbitrary dimension based on the Bloch representation of density matrices.

Detecting quantum correlations in separable systems

Satyabrata Adhikari, A. S. Majumdar, I. Chakraborty

Quantum correlations in composite and separable quantum systems are characterized by non-vanishing quantum discord. We demonstrate the necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of hermitian witness operators for quantum discord, bypassing the problem of non-convexity of the set of all classical states. We propose an example of a linear witness which can detect quantum correlations in large classes of separable bipartite systems. Decomposition of the witness in terms of a small number of locally measurable operators as shown here, paves the way for experimental detection of quantum correlations beyond entanglement.

Witnessing the quantum discord of all the unknown states

Sixia Yu, Chengjie Zhang, Qing Chen +1 more

Like entanglement, quantum discord quantifies the quantum correlations. Unlike entanglement, whose detection is extremely difficult, the quantum discord of an arbitrary bipartite state allows itself to be detected perfectly by a single observable, the quantum discord witness. In particular, we report a single observable whose expectation value provides a necessary and sufficient condition for the vanishing quantum discord of an arbitrary bipartite unknown state with four copies. A quantum circuit is designed to measure the quantum discord witness by using only local qubit-measurements.

Concurrence in arbitrary dimensions

Piotr Badziąg, Piotr Deuar, Michał Horodecki +2 more

We argue that a complete characterisation of quantum correlations in bipartite systems of many dimensions may require a quantity which, even for pure states, does not reduce to a single number. Subsequently, we introduce multi-dimensional generalizations of concurrence and find evidence that they may provide useful tools for the analysis of quantum correlations in mixed bipartite states. We also introudce {\\it biconcurrence} that leads to a necessary and sufficient condition for separability.

Separability criteria based on the Bloch representation of density matrices

Juan de Vicente

We study the separability of bipartite quantum systems in arbitrary dimensions using the Bloch representation of their density matrix. This approach enables us to find an alternative characterization of the separability problem, from which we derive a necessary condition and sufficient conditions for separability. For a certain class of states the necessary condition and a sufficient condition turn out to be equivalent, therefore yielding a necessary and sufficient condition. The proofs of the sufficient conditions are constructive, thus providing decompositions in pure product states for the states that satisfy them. We provide examples that show the ability of these conditions to detect entanglement. In particular, the necessary condition is proved to be strong enough to detect bound entangled states.

Detection of quantum correlations and typical properties of isospectral density matrices

Michał Oszmaniec, Marek Kuś

For several types of correlations: mixed-state entanglement in systems of distinguishable particles, particle entanglement in systems of indistinguishable bosons and fermions and non-Gaussian correlations in fermionic systems we estimate the fraction of non-correlated states among the density matrices with the same spectra. We prove that for the purity exceeding some critical value (depending on the considered problem) fraction of non-correlated states tends to zero exponentially fast with the dimension of the relevant Hilbert space. As a consequence a state randomly chosen from the set of density matrices possessing the same spectra is asymptotically a correlated one. To prove this we developed a systematic framework for detection of correlations via nonlinear witnesses.
