Abstract

It is known that realignment crierion is necessary but not a sufficient criterion for lower as well as higher dimensional system. In this work, we first consider a two-qubit system and derived the necessary and sufficient condition based on realignment operation for a particular class of two-qubit system. Thus we solved the problem of if and only if condition partially for a particular class of two-qubit state. We have shown that the derived necessary and sufficient condition detects two-qubit entangled states, which are not detected by the realignment criterion. Next, we discuss the higher dimensional system and obtained the necessary condition on the minimum singular value of the realigned matrix of $d\otimes d$ dimensional separable states. Moreover, we provide the geometrical interpretation of the derived separability criterion for $d\otimes d$ dimensional system. Furthermore, we show that our criterion may also detect bound entangled state. The entanglement detection criterion studied here is beneficial in the sense that it requires to calculate only minimum singular value of the realigned matrix while on the other hand realignment criterion requires all singular values of the realigned matrix. Thus, our criterion has computational advantage over the realignment criterion.

Separability condition for higher dimensional systems based on realignment operation

Naman Sharma, Gunjan Arora, Hemaank Mahajan +1 more

We begin by describing our study of the singular value decomposition. We move on describing the separability/entanglement detection problem for a two-qubit system. After describing a few other criterions used for detection of entangled states, we divert our focus to higher dimensional systems, where we find a necessary condition on the minimum singular value for a d ⊗ d dimensional state to be separable. The condition is based on realignment criterion and structural physical approximation of partial transposition (SPA-PT) criterion. We also discuss the geometrical interpretation of the necessary condition. We have also included some examples that show the situations where other criterion might fail but our condition is useful to detect entangled states. The condition we found is useful in the fact that only the smallest singular value of the realigned matrix is required instead of all the singular values that are required in the other criterion. This makes our criterion have a small computational advantage. After this, we also discussed some ways to approximate the smallest singular value which may in turn help finding entangled states when used along with the above criterion. Index Terms—entanglement detection, quantum information theory, realignment criterion, singular value, structural physical approximation of partial transposition.

Realignment Criterion: A necessary and sufficient condition for two-qubit $X$-states

Amish Gogia, Bagga, Aakhyat, Satyabrata Adhikari +1 more

The Computable Cross Norm (CCN), or realignment criterion, is a widely used method for entanglement detection in quantum systems; however, it typically provides only a necessary condition. In this work, we advance the applicability of the realignment criterion by deriving a condition that is both necessary and sufficient for detecting entanglement in two-qubit. $X$-states derive their name from the characteristic 'X' shape of their density matrix, which contains seven independent matrix parameters. Notably, they incorporate several important subclasses of entangled states, including Bell states, Werner states, and maximally entangled mixed states. $X$-states have proven highly useful in entanglement studies due to their sparse structure and the ease with which entanglement-related quantities can be computed. This refined criterion improves the identification of entangled states that the standard CCN approach fails to detect, thereby extending the utility of the method.

Entanglement detection in arbitrary-dimensional bipartite quantum systems through partial realigned moments

Shruti Aggarwal, Satyabrata Adhikari, A. S. Majumdar

Detection of entanglement through partial knowledge of the quantum state is a challenge to implement efficiently. Here we propose a separability criterion for detecting bipartite entanglement in arbitrary-dimensional quantum states using partial moments of the realigned density matrix. Our approach enables the detection of both distillable and bound entangled states through a common framework. We illustrate the significance of our method through examples of states belonging to both the above categories, which are not detectable using comparable other schemes relying on partial state information. The formalism of employing partial realigned moments proposed here is further shown to be effective for two-qubit systems too, with a slight modification of our separability criterion.

Multipartite entanglement based on realignment moments

Hui Zhao, Zhuang, Shu-Ying, Naihuan Jing +1 more

Based on the realignment moments of density matrix, we study parameterized entanglement criteria for bipartite and multipartite states. By adjusting the different parameter values, our criterion can detect not only bound entangled states, but also non-positive partial transpose entangled states for bipartite quantum systems. Moreover, we propose the definition of multipartite realignment moments and generalize the result of bipartite systems to obtain a sufficient criterion to detect entanglement for multipartite quantum states in arbitrary dimensions. And we further improve the conclusion to obtain another new entanglement criterion. The new method can detect more entangled states than previous methods as backed by detailed examples.

A Necessary and Sufficient Entanglement Criterion of N-qubit System Based on Correlation Tensor

Fenglin Wu, Siyuan Liu, Wen‐Li Yang +2 more

Great advances have been achieved in studying characteristics of entanglement for fundamentals of quantum mechanics and quantum information processing. However, even for N-qubit systems, the problem of entanglement criterion has not been well solved. In this Letter, using the method of state decomposition and high order singular value decomposition (HOSVD), we propose a necessary and sufficient entanglement criterion for general N-qubit systems. As an example, we apply our method to study the multi-qubit W state with white noise. We not only obtain the separability critical point, which is tight and thus better than known results, but also the separate states ensemble for decomposition. More examples are presented to show our criterion is accurate, which is tighter than the well-known positive partial transpose criterion. For two-qubit case, we can provide an entanglement measurer which gives similar results with concurrence up to a factor. Our results pave the way to solve the entanglement-separability criterion for more general cases.

The generalized partial transposition criterion for infinite-dimensional quantum systems

Siqing YanYu GuoJinchuan Hou

The positive partial transposition (PPT) criterion and the realignment criterion constitute two of the most important criteria for detecting entanglement. The general- ized partial transposition (GPT) criterion which contains the PPT criterion and the realignment criterion as special cases, provides a necessary condition for a multipartite state to be separable. Here we extend the GPT criterion to the infinite- dimensional multipartite (bipartite) case and show that it includes multipartite (bipartite) PPT criterion and multipartite (bipartite) realignment criterion as special cases as well.
