Abstract

We study multipartite entanglement under stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC) and propose the entanglement classification under SLOCC for arbitrary-dimensional multipartite ($n$-qudit) pure states via the rank of coefficient matrix, together with the permutation of qudits. The ranks of the coefficient matrices have been proved to be entanglement monotones. The entanglement classification of the $2 \otimes 2 \otimes 2 \otimes 4$ system is discussed in terms of the generalized method, and 22 different SLOCC families are found.

Entanglement Classification of Arbitrary-Dimensional Multipartite Pure States under Stochastic Local Operations and Classical Communication via the Ranks of the Coefficient Matrices

Wang Shuhao, Yao Lu, Jianlian Cui +2 more

The coefficient matrix is an efficient tool in entanglement classification under stochastic local operation and classical communication (SLOCC). In this work, we take all the ranks of the coefficient matrices into account in the method of entanglement classification, and give the entanglement classification procedure for arbitrary-dimensional multipartite pure states under SLOCC. As a main application, we study the entanglement classification for quantum systems in the Hilbert space H = C2 ⊗ C2 ⊗ C2 ⊗ Cd in terms of the ranks of the coefficient matrices.

The coefficient matrix is an efficient tool in entanglement classification under stochastic local operation and classical communication. In this work, we take all the ranks of the coefficient matrices into account in the method of entanglement classification, and give the entanglement classification procedure for arbitrary-dimensional multipartite pure states under stochastic local operation and classical communication.

Classification of General n -Qubit States under Stochastic Local Operations and Classical Communication in Terms of the Rank of Coefficient Matrix

Xiangrong Li, Dafa Li

We solve the entanglement classification under stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC) for general n-qubit states. For two arbitrary pure n-qubit states connected via local operations, we establish an equation between the two coefficient matrices associated with the states. The rank of the coefficient matrix is preserved under SLOCC and gives rise to a simple way of partitioning all the pure states of n qubits into different families of entanglement classes, as exemplified here. When applied to the symmetric states, this approach reveals that all the Dicke states |ℓ,n> with ℓ=1,…,[n/2] are inequivalent under SLOCC.

Method for classifying multiqubit states via the rank of the coefficient matrix and its application to four-qubit states

Xiangrong Li, Dafa Li

We construct coefficient matrices of size ${2}^{\ensuremath{\ell}}$ by ${2}^{n\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\ell}}$ associated with pure $n$-qubit states and prove the invariance of the ranks of the coefficient matrices under stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC). The ranks give rise to a simple way of partitioning pure $n$-qubit states into inequivalent families and distinguishing degenerate families from one another under SLOCC. Moreover, the classification scheme via the ranks of coefficient matrices can be combined with other schemes to build a more refined classification scheme. To exemplify we classify the nine families of four qubits introduced by Verstraete et al. [Phys. Rev. A 65, 052112 (2002)] further into inequivalent subfamilies via the ranks of coefficient matrices, and as a result, we find 28 genuinely entangled families and all the degenerate classes can be distinguished up to permutations of the four qubits. We also discuss the completeness of the classification of four qubits into nine families.

Criterion for SLOCC equivalence of multipartite quantum states

Tinggui Zhang, Ming-Jing Zhao, Xiaofen Huang

Abstract We study the stochastic local operation and classical communication (SLOCC) equivalence for arbitrary dimensional multipartite quantum states. For multipartite pure states, we present a necessary and sufficient criterion in terms of their coefficient matrices. This condition can be used to classify some SLOCC equivalent quantum states with coefficient matrices having the same rank. For multipartite mixed state, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition by means of the realignment of matrix. Some detailed examples are given to identify the SLOCC equivalence of multipartite quantum states.

Rank-based SLOCC classification for odd nnn qubits

Xiangrong Li, Dafa Li

We study the entanglement classification under stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC) for odd n-qubit pure states. For this purpose, we introduce the rank with respect to qubit i for an odd n-qubit state. The ranks with respect to qubits 1,2, ... n give rise to the classification of the space of odd $n$ qubits into 3^n families.
