Introduction Of Quantum Entanglement Measure Based On The Expectation Values Of Pauli Operators

Abstract

In this paper, firstly considering that in separable states, the measurement of one particle has no effect on the measurement of the second particle, we show that Alice and Bob can find directions in which the results of their measurements on the spin of the particle are always maximized. In other words, the state of the particle is an eigenstate for the operator that is applied in that direction, so the sum of the spins of two particles can have a maximum value. We will argue that in entangled states, due to the effect of particle measurement results on each other, Alice and Bob cannot find the desired operators. Therefore, in such measurements, the total spin of the particles will always be less than the mentioned maximum. But we ask them to try and measure in directions that will get the most value. Because this value is maximum for separable states and minimum for fully entangled states, and for the rest of the states, it will be proportional to the degree of entanglement between the two maximum and minimum values, we set this parameter as We are calling it the "separability index". Then, based on this index, the measure of entanglement was introduced and extended to states with higher dimensions. In the end, examples of di-qubit states di-qutrit states, and di-qudit states were investigated and the efficiency of the measure was confirmed by the results of the examples. Considering that in this measure, the values of entanglement are calculated based on the expectation values and we can measure the expectation values in the experiment, we hope to be one step closer to the testability of the entanglement value.

Geometric measure of entanglement for pure states and mean value of spin

Andrzej Frydryszak, V. M. Tkachuk

We derive an explicit expression for geometric measure of entanglement for spin and other quantum system. A relation of entanglement in pure state with the mean value of spin is given, thus, at the experimental level the local measurement of spin may allow to find the value of entanglement. The obtained form of the measure is applied to the explicit characterization of bipartite entanglement for $n$-qubit systems in the Werner state, Dicke state, GHZ state and trigonometric states. In particular for Werner-like states the rule of sums is found and it is shown that deviations from the symmetricity of such states diminishes the amount of entanglement. For Dicke states the maximal value of bipartite entanglement is achieved when number of excitations is half of the total number of qubits in these states. For trigonometric states the bipartite entanglement is maximal and does not depend on the number of qubits. We also consider entanglement of discrete-continuous systems on the example of entanglement of spin with continuous variables of electron. The relation of entanglement with the mean value of spin is very useful for calculation of entanglement. With the help of this relation we find in explicit form the entanglement of the one spin with the rest in a spin chain during the evolution determined by the Ising Hamiltonian.

One particle self correlations for a separable representation of the singlet spin state beyond standard Quantum Mechanics

Lopez, Carlos

A new pure quantum state, isotropic in spin variables, is defined in an extended spin phase space beyond standard quantum mechanics. It allows to represent the entangled singlet state in separable form. The statistical correlations between Alice and Bob measurements become self correlations between hidden spin values for each particle, together with perfect anti correlation between spin values on the pair. Alice determines through measurement on her particle the value of spin in some direction. Spin in another direction is inferred from Bob measurement on the companion. Bell's inequalities are violated because of the wave like behaviour of quantum systems. In full analogy with the two slit experiment, interference terms between spin field components appear determining the contextual character of quantum distributions of probability.

Optimal measurement strategies for quantum states and quantum channels estimation

Nadia Milazzo

The rapid advance of quantum information technology requires precise control and manipulation of quantum systems and of their properties; in particular, it is essential to certify that quantum processors truly work quantum mechanically, in order to validate experiments and their results. The problem of certification of quantum states and devices is a demanding one, thus many attempts have been put forward to find ways of efficiently test their basic functionalities, such as their entanglement properties. The main problems addressed in this thesis concern indeed finding optimal strategies for the estimation and characterization of quantum states and channels, with a special focus on entanglement correlations. In our first work we considered the certification of entanglement across a given partition of a multi-qubit system, when only partial information about the corresponding quantum state is available; we tackled the problem of finding the best measurement strategy introducing the statistics of lengths of measurement sequences, choosing multi-qubit Pauli-measurements as observables. Using a sample of random unknown states, we were able to identify the (on average) shortest, i.e. most efficient, measurement sequence to detect entanglement. The investigation was carried out with an algorithm based on the truncated moment sequences (tms) problem, which provides necessary and sufficient conditions for entanglement or separability of a quantum state of a finite dimensional system. This study results in a very efficient strategy especially for symmetric states, for which only a tiny fraction ($10^{-6}$) of randomly chosen entangled states are undetected for systems with 6 qubits or more. We continued in our second work with the problem of separability of quantum channels to answer the question whether a given quantum device is able to create entanglement or not. The Choi matrix representation, provided by the Choi–Jamiołkowski isomorphism, casts the problem in terms of systems and ancillas, giving different classes of separability depending on the cut considered between them. Once again, the tms framework turned out to be well suited for this study, giving a unifying approach for the different separability problems; a solution is found in terms of the tms associated to the coordinates of the Choi state, in a fixed basis, and semidefinite programming is used to get a separability certificate. We explored examples of families of 2-qubit and single-qutrit channels, for which our algorithm can give an answer in cases where other criteria remain inconclusive. In a further work we shifted our attention to a different direction, highlighting a connection between the fields of quantum information, Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) and analogue gravity, thus showing the relevance of quantum information notions in a broader context. We studied the entanglement properties of a BEC analogue of a black hole, which is described by a three-mode Gaussian state; we investigated bipartite and tripartite entanglement measures based on the covariance matrix description, both at zero and finite temperature, providing the best experimental configuration for entanglement detection. In a final stage of this thesis, we started looking at different measurement strategies for testing quantum devices whose functionality can be described by a single parameter; we used a Bayesian approach to estimate this parameter, exploiting the information collected through measurements to update a conditional probability distribution, without the need of estimating expected values of observables. The problem of finding the optimal experimental design can be in this case translated in the optimization of a utility function, which usually guides the update process adaptively at each step; we tried to outperform this approach looking ahead not only at the next step, but at a few ones, in order to obtain an answer of correct or wrong functioning as soon as possible. Moreover, we chose the input state for the quantum channel considered minimizing the error probability given by the Chernoff distance between the outputs of an ideal and a faulty channel; finally, we considered two different final decision criteria and compared their efficiency.

Separability criteria and method of measurement for entanglement

Siti Munirah Mohd, Bahari Idrus, Muriati Bt. Mukhtar

Quantum computers have the potentials to solve certain problems faster than classical computers. In quantum computer, entanglement is one of the elements beside superposition. Recently, with the advent of quantum information theory, entanglement has become an important resource for Quantum Information and Computation. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the separability criteria and method of measurement for entanglement. This paper is aimed at viewing the method that has been proposed in previous works in bipartite and multipartite entanglement. The outcome of this paper is to classify the different method that used to measure entanglement for bipartite and multipartite cases including the advantage and disadvantage of each method.

High-spin measurements in an arbitrary two-qudit state

Elena R. Loubenets, Louis Hanotel

Abstract Violation of the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) inequality by a bipartite quantum state is now used in many quantum applications. However, the explicit analytical expression for the maximal value of the CHSH expectation under local Alice and Bob spin-s measurements is still known only for s = 1 / 2 . In the present article, for an arbitrary state of two spin-s qudits, each of dimension d = 2 s + 1 ⩾ 2 , we introduce the notion of the spin-s correlation matrix, which has dimension 3 × 3 for all s ⩾ 1 2 ; establish its relation to the general correlation ( d 2 − 1 ) × ( d 2 − 1 ) matrix of this state within the generalized Pauli representation and derive in terms of the spin-s correlation matrix the explicit analytical expression for the maximal value of the CHSH expectation under local Alice and Bob spin-s measurements in this state. Specifying this general expression for the two-qudit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state, the nonlocal two-qudit Werner state, and some nonseparable pure two-qudit states, we find that, under local Alice and Bob high-spin ( s ⩾ 1 ) measurements in each of these nonseparable states, including the maximally entangled one, the CHSH inequality is not violated. Moreover, unlike the case of spin- 1 / 2 measurements, where each pure nonseparable two-qubit state violates the CHSH inequality and the maximal value of its CHSH expectation increases monotonically with a growth of its entanglement, the situation under high-spin measurements is quite different—for a pure two-qudit state with a higher degree of entanglement, the maximal value of the CHSH expectation turns out to be less than for a pure two-qudit state with lower entanglement and even for a separable one.
