Abstract We present several multipartite quantum systems featuring the same type of genuine (tripartite) entanglement. Based on a geometric interpretation of the so-called and states we show that the classification of all multipartite systems featuring those and only those two classes of genuine entanglement can be deduced from earlier work of algebraic geometers. In this paper, non-entangled pure states are identified with the highest weight orbit of the SLOCC group acting on the corresponding Hilbert space.

Classification and quantification of bipartite qubit, tripartite qubit, and bipartite qutrit entanglement are studied in detail based on the entanglement measure of multipartite pure states. The results show that different ways of pure state entanglement can be characterized by extremal values of the corresponding entanglement measure under the stochastic local operation and classical communication(SLOCC). Detailed analysis shows that there are three different kinds of entanglement under the SLOCC in both tripartite qubit and bipartite qutrit pure state systems. Comparison of the measure with the recently proposed entropy-product measure is made and briefly discussed.
Quantum Entanglement is one of the key manifestations of quantum mechanics that separate the quantum realm from the classical one. Characterization of entanglement as a physical resource for quantum technology became of uppermost importance. While the entanglement of bipartite systems is already well understood, the ultimate goal to cope with the properties of entanglement of multipartite systems is still far from being realized. This paper covers characterization of multipartite entanglement using algebraic-geometric tools. First, we establish an algorithm to classify multipartite entanglement by [Formula: see text]-secant varieties of the Segre variety and [Formula: see text]-multilinear ranks that are invariant under Stochastic Local Operations with Classical Communication (SLOCC). We present a fine-structure classification of multiqubit and tripartite entanglement based on this algorithm. Another fundamental problem in quantum information theory is entanglement transformation that is quite challenging regarding to multipartite systems. It is captivating that the proposed entanglement classification by algebraic geometry can be considered as a reference to study SLOCC and asymptotic SLOCC interconversions among different resources based on tensor rank and border rank, respectively. In this regard, we also introduce a new class of tensors that we call persistent tensors and construct a lower bound for their tensor rank. We further cover SLOCC convertibility of multipartite systems considering several families of persistent tensors.
The aim of the paper is to propose geometric descriptions of multipartite entangled states using algebraic geometry. In the context of this paper, geometric means each stratum of the Hilbert space, corresponding to an entangled state, is an open subset of an algebraic variety built by classical geometric constructions (tangent lines, secant lines) from the set of separable states. In this setting, we describe well-known classifications of multipartite entanglement such as 2 × 2 × (n + 1), for n ⩾ 1, quantum systems and a new description with the 2 × 3 × 3 quantum system. Our results complete the approach of Miyake and make stronger connections with recent work of algebraic geometers. Moreover, for the quantum systems detailed in this paper, we propose an algorithm, based on the classical theory of invariants, to decide to which subvariety of the Hilbert space a given state belongs.
The classification of the multipartite entanglement is an important problem in quantum information theory. We propose a class of two qubit mixed states σAB=p∣χ1⟩⟨χ1∣⊗ρ1+(1−p)∣χ2⟩⟨χ2∣⊗ρ2, where ∣χ1⟩=α∣0⟩+β∣1⟩, ∣χ2⟩=β∣0⟩+(−1)nα∣1⟩. We have shown that the state σAB represent a classical state when n is odd while it represent a non-classical state when n is even. The purification of the state σAB is studied and found that the purification is possible if the spectral decomposition of the density matrices ρ1 and ρ2 represent pure states. We have established a relationship between three tangle, which measures the amount of entanglement in three qubit system and the quantity ⟨χ1∣χ2⟩, which identifies whether the two qubit mixed state is classical or non-classical. The three qubit purified state is then classified as a separable or biseparable or W-type or GHZ-type state using the quantum correlation, measured by geometric discord, of its reduced two qubit density matrix.
We develop a novel method in classifying the multipartite entanglement state of 2×N ×N under stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC). In this method, all inequivalent classes of a genuine entangled state can be assorted directly without knowing the classification information of lower dimension ones for any given dimension N. It also gives a nature explanation for the non-local parameters remaining in the entanglement classes when N ≥ 4. Entanglement is at the heart of the quantum information theory (QIT) and is now thought as a physical resource to realize quantum information tasks, such as quantum cryptography [1, 2], superdense coding [3, 4], and quantum computation [5]. The study of entanglement improves our further understanding of quantum non-locality [6] and also is of particular interest in QIT. One such case is the classification of multipartite entanglement. Two quantum states can be employed to implement the same tasks in QIT and are thought to be equivalent while they are mutually convertible by Stochastic Local Operations and Classical Communication (SLOCC) [7]. Nevertheless, in practice the classification of multipartite entanglement and in high dimensions in the Hilbert space seems to be a formidable task [8]. Matrix decomposition keeps to be a useful tool as in the two-partite case [9, 10]. A widely adopted philosophy in dealing with this issue is first to know the classification of the state in lower dimension (or less partite) and then extend to the higher dimension case [11, 12] (or more partite [13, 14]) in an inductive way. However, nontrivial aspect emerges as the dimension increases, i.e. some non-local parameters may nest in the entangled states [15, 16]. In literature, in
A multipartite quantum state is entangled if it is not separable. Quantum entanglement plays a fundamental role in many applications of quantum information theory, such as quantum teleportation. Stochastic local quantum operations and classical communication (SLOCC) cannot essentially change quantum entanglement without destroying it. Therefore, entanglement can be classified by dividing quantum states into equivalence classes, where two states are equivalent if each can be converted into the other by SLOCC. Properties of this classification, especially in the case of non two-dimensional quantum systems, have not been well studied. Graphical representation is sometimes used to clarify the nature and structural features of entangled states. SLOCC equivalence of quantum bits (qubits) has been described graphically via a connection between tripartite entangled qubit states and commutative Frobenius algebras (CFAs) in monoidal categories. In this paper, we extend this method to qutrits, i.e., systems that have three basis states. We examine the correspondence between CFAs and tripartite entangled qutrits. Using the symmetry property, which is required by the definition of a CFA, we find that there are only three equivalence classes that correspond to CFAs. We represent qutrits graphically, using the connection to CFAs. We derive equations that characterize the three equivalence classes. Moreover, we show that any qutrit can be represented as a composite of three graphs that correspond to the three classes.
