Abstract

We provide analytical lower and upper bounds for entanglement of formation for bipartite systems, which give a direct relation between the bounds of entanglement of formation and concurrence, and improve the previous results. Detailed examples are presented.

Entanglement of formation and concurrence for mixed states

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.

Reexamination of entanglement of superpositions

Gilad Gour

We find tight lower and upper bounds on the entanglement of a superposition of two bipartite states in terms of the entanglement of the two states constituting the superposition. Our upper bound is dramatically tighter than the one presented by Linden et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 100502 (2006)] and our lower bound can be used to provide lower bounds on different measures of entanglement such as the entanglement of formation and the entanglement of subspaces. We also find that in the case in which the two states are one-sided orthogonal, the entanglement of the superposition state can be expressed explicitly in terms of the entanglement of the two states in the superposition.

Evolution of entanglement for quantum mixed states

Chang‐shui Yu, X. X. Yi, He‐Shan Song

A simple relation is introduced for concurrence to describe how much the entanglement of a bipartite system is at least left if either (or both) subsystem undergoes an arbitrary physical process. This provides a lower bound for concurrence of mixed states (pure states are included) in contrast to the upper bound given by Konrad et al. [Nat. Phys. 4, 99 (2008)]. Our results are also suitable for general high-dimensional bipartite quantum systems.

A note on lower bounds of concurrence for arbitrary dimensional bipartite quantum states

Zhi-Bo Chen, Shao-Ming Fei

Abstract Quantification of quantum entanglement plays a crucial role in the study of quantum information tasks. We present analytical lower bounds for both concurrence and 2-concurrence based on the correlation matrices of bipartite quantum states. Compared with other related lower bounds, our approach provides a better estimation of the entanglement, particularly for states with large purity.

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.
