Abstract

Entanglement in multipartite quantum systems is much more elusive than its bipartite counterpart. In recent past the usefulness of multipartite entangled states in several information theoretic tasks have been demonstrated. Being a resource, the detection of multipartite entanglement is an imperative necessity. Among the different classes of multipartite entangled states the Dicke state has found importance in several tasks due to its permutation symmetric nature. In this work we propose a simple and elegant way of detecting n qubit Dicke states using permutation symmetric Bell operators. We conjecture that maximal expectation value of the operator corresponds to the detection of Dicke states.

Detection of multipartite entanglement in the vicinity of symmetric Dicke states

Géza Tóth

I present methods for detecting entanglement around symmetric Dicke states. In particular, I consider N-qubit symmetric Dicke states with N/2 excitations. I show that for large N these states have the smallest overlap possible with states without genuine multipartite entanglement. Thus these states are particularly well suited for the experimental examination of multipartite entanglement. I present fidelity-based entanglement witness operators for detecting multipartite entanglement around these states. I then consider entanglement criteria, somewhat similar to the spin squeezing criterion, based on the moments or variances of the collective spin operators. Surprisingly, these criteria are based on an upper bound for variances for separable states. I present criteria detecting entanglement in general and criteria detecting only genuine multipartite entanglement. The collective operator measured for this criteria is an important physical quantity: Its expectation value essentially gives the intensity of the radiation when a coherent atomic cloud emits light.

Entanglement Detection in the Vicinity of Arbitrary Dicke States

Luming Duan

Dicke states represent a class of multipartite entangled states that can be generated experimentally with many applications in quantum information. We propose a method to experimentally detect genuine multipartite entanglement in the vicinity of arbitrary Dicke states. The detection scheme can be used to experimentally quantify the entanglement depth of many-body systems and is easy to implement as it requires measurement of only three collective spin operators. The detection criterion is strong as it heralds multipartite entanglement even in cases where the state fidelity goes down exponentially with the number of qubits.

All bipartitions of arbitrary Dicke states

George Moreno, Fernando Parisio

By exploiting the permutation symmetry of Dick states, we derive closed analytical expressions of Schmidt decompositions for {\it all} possible bipartitions of a system described by this kind of state. This allows us to exhaustively compute the entropy of entanglement of the bipartitions and, thus, compare the their entanglement extent. We also address the multipartite character of Dicke states by calculating the purity of balanced bipartitions to determine the potential of multipartite entanglement (the average purity). In particular, we found that the entanglement of $W$ states remains constant as the number of qubits is increased. As a final application we define a family of multipartite entanglement witnesses and compute their resistance against random and systematic imperfections. It is shown that in some circumstances, for a fixed white noise fraction, the entanglement becomes detectable only if one {\it increases} the amount of systematic imperfection in the state.

Entanglement in highly symmetric multipartite quantum states

Adam Burchardt, Jakub Czartowski, Karol Życzkowski

A construction of genuinely entangled multipartite quantum states based on the group theory is presented. Analyzed states resemble the Dicke states, whereas the interactions occur only between specific subsystems related by the action of the selected group. The states constructed by this technique exhibit desired symmetry properties and form a natural resource for less-symmetric quantum informational tasks. We propose quantum circuits efficiently generating such states, which in general have smaller complexity than the circuits necessary to create fully symmetric entangled states. Exemplary five-qubit quantum states are simulated on quantum computers.

Experimentally feasible set of criteria detecting genuine multipartite entanglement in n -qubit Dicke states and in higher-dimensional systems

Marcus Huber, Paul Erker, Hans Schimpf +2 more

We construct a set of criteria detecting genuine multipartite entanglement in arbitrary dimensional multipartite systems. These criteria are optimally suited for detecting multipartite entanglement in $n$-qubit Dicke states with $m$ excitations, as shown in exemplary cases. Furthermore, they can be employed to detect multipartite entanglement in different states related to quantum cloning, decoherence-free communication, and quantum secret sharing. In a detailed analysis, we show that the criteria are also more robust to noise than any other criterion known so far, especially with increasing system size. Furthermore, it is shown that the number of required local observables scales only polynomially with size, thus making the criteria experimentally feasible.

Multi-particle Correlations and Characteristic Bell Inequalities

Ch. Schmid, Nikolai Kiesel, Wiesław Laskowski +3 more

The correlations between local measurement results are characteristic for multi-partite quantum systems. Under the condition of local realism, which assumes that properties of physical systems exist independent of being measured, and that space-like separated actions on the system cannot influence each other, these correlations are constrained by Bell-inequalities. Quantum mechanics predicts correlations which are not explainable under these two assumptions. The resulting violation of Bell inequalities was originally studied for pairs of entangled particles (Einstein et al.,1935). Meanwhile these ideas were extended to three-and more partite quantum states in particular with respect to the different kinds of multi-particle entanglement and their implications on the obtainable correlations (Mermin, 1990). Here we present a method to construct characteristic Bell inequalities for particular four-qubit states. These inequalities are a versatile tool, not only to provide evidence for non-locality, but also for the characterization of the states, with respect to detection of genuine multipartite entanglement and to state discrimination. Exemplarily we apply our approach to the symmetric four qubit Dicke-state (Dicke, 1954) with two excitations. (A symmetric N-qubit Dicke state with M excitations is the equal superposition of N-qubit pure product states having M logical 1 's and (N-M) logical 0's.) Experimentally the state was observed with photons as carrier of the qubits, using polarization encoding.
