Abstract

Efficiently detecting entanglement based on measurable quantities is a basic problem for quantum information processing. Recently, the measurable quantities called partial-transpose (PT) moments have been proposed to detect and characterize entanglement. Recently [L. Zhang et al., Ann. Phys. (Berlin) 534, 2200289 (2022)], we have already identified the two-dimensional region, comprised of the second and third PT moments, corresponding to two-qubit entangled states, and described the whole region for all two-qubit states. In the present paper, we visualize the three-dimensional (3D) region corresponding to all two-qubit states by further involving the fourth PT moment (the last one for two-qubit states). The characterization of this 3D region can finally be achieved by optimizing some polynomials. Furthermore, we identify the dividing surface which separates the two parts of the whole 3D region corresponding to entangled and separable states, respectively. Due to the measurability of PT moments, we obtain a complete and operational criterion for the detection of two-qubit entanglement.

A Characterization of Entangled Two‐Qubit States via Partial‐Transpose‐Moments

Lin Zhang, Ming‐Jing Zhao, Lin Chen +2 more

Abstract Although quantum entanglement is an important resource, its characterization is quite challenging. The partial transposition is a common method to detect bipartite entanglement. In this paper, the authors study the partial‐transpose(PT)‐moments of two‐qubit states, and completely describe the whole region, composed of the second and third PT‐moments, for all two‐qubit states. Furthermore, they determine the accurate region corresponding to all entangled two‐qubit states. The states corresponding to those boundary points of the whole region, and to the border lines between separable and entangled states are analyzed. As an application, they characterize the entangled region of PT‐moments for the two families of Werner states and Bell‐diagonal states. The relations between entanglement and the pairs of PT‐moments are revealed from these typical examples. They also numerically plot the whole region of possible PT‐moments for all two‐qubit X‐states, and find that this region is almost the same as the whole region of PT‐moments for all two‐qubit states. Moreover, they extend their results to detect the entanglement of multiqubit states. By utilizing the PT‐moment‐based method to characterize the entanglement of the multiqubit states mixed by the GHZ and W states, they propose an operational way of verifying the genuine entanglement in such states.

Optimal Entanglement Certification from Moments of the Partial Transpose

Xiao‐Dong Yu, Satoya Imai, Otfried Gühne

For the certification and benchmarking of medium-size quantum devices, efficient methods to characterize entanglement are needed. In this context, it has been shown that locally randomized measurements on a multiparticle quantum system can be used to obtain valuable information on the so-called moments of the partially transposed quantum state. This allows one to infer some separability properties of a state, but how to use the given information in an optimal and systematic manner has yet to be determined. We propose two general entanglement detection methods based on the moments of the partially transposed density matrix. The first method is based on the Hankel matrices and provides a family of entanglement criteria, of which the lowest order reduces to the known p_{3}-positive-partial-transpose criterion proposed in A. Elben et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 200501 (2020)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.125.200501]. The second method is optimal and gives necessary and sufficient conditions for entanglement based on some moments of the partially transposed density matrix.

Moments based entanglement criteria and measures

Yiding Wang, Tinggui Zhang, Xiaofen Huang +1 more

Abstract Quantum entanglement plays a key role in quantum computation and quantum information processing. It is of great significance to find efficient and experimentally friend separability criteria to detect entanglement. In this paper, we firstly propose two easily used entanglement criteria based on matrix moments. The first entanglement criterion only uses the first two realignment moments of a density matrix. The second entanglement criterion is based on the moments related to the partially transposed matrix. By detailed examples we illustrate the effectiveness of these criteria in detecting entanglement. Moreover, we provide an experimentally measurable lower bound of concurrence based on these moments. Finally, we present both bipartite and genuine tripartite entanglement measures based on the moments of the reduced states. By detailed examples, we show that our entanglement measures characterize the quantum entanglement in a more fine ways than the existing measures.

Detection and Classification of Bipartite and Multipartite Entangled States

Anu Kumari

The detection and classification of entanglement properties in a two-qubit and a multi-qubit system is a topic of great interest. This topic has been extensively studied, and as a result, we discovered various approaches for detecting and classifying multi-qubit, in particular three-qubit entangled states. The emphasis of this work is on a formalism of methods for the detection and classification of bipartite as well as multipartite quantum systems. We have used the method of structural physical approximation of partially transposed matrix (SPA-PT) for the detection of entangled states in arbitrary dimensional bipartite quantum systems. Also, we have proposed criteria for the classification of all possible stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC) inequivalent classes of a pure and mixed three-qubit state using the SPA-PT map. To quantify entanglement, we have defined a new measure of entanglement based on the method of SPA-PT, which we named as "structured negativity". We have shown that this measure can be used to quantify entanglement for negative partial transposed entangled states (NPTES). Since the methods for detection, classification and quantification of entanglement, defined in this thesis are based on SPA-PT, they may be realized in an experiment.

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.

Many-Body Entropies and Entanglement from Polynomially Many Local Measurements

Benoît Vermersch, Marko Ljubotina, J. I. Cirac +3 more

Estimating global properties of many-body quantum systems such as entropy or bipartite entanglement is a notoriously difficult task, typically requiring a number of measurements or classical postprocessing resources growing exponentially in the system size. In this work, we address the problem of estimating global entropies and mixed-state entanglement via partial-transposed (PT) moments and show that efficient estimation strategies exist under the assumption that all the spatial correlation lengths are finite. Focusing on one-dimensional systems, we identify a set of approximate factorization conditions (AFCs) on the system density matrix, which allow us to reconstruct entropies and PT moments from information on local subsystems. This identification yields a simple and efficient strategy for entropy and entanglement estimation. Our method could be implemented in different ways, depending on how information on local subsystems is extracted. Focusing on randomized measurements providing a practical and common measurement scheme, we prove that our protocol requires only polynomially many measurements and postprocessing operations, assuming that the state to be measured satisfies the AFCs. We prove that the AFCs hold for finite-depth quantum-circuit states and translation-invariant matrix-product density operators and provide numerical evidence that they are satisfied in more general, physically interesting cases, including thermal states of local Hamiltonians. We argue that our method could be practically useful to detect bipartite mixed-state entanglement for large numbers of qubits available in today’s quantum platforms.
