Abstract

Quantum entanglement plays a critical role in many quantum applications, but detecting entanglement, especially in multipartite or high-dimensional quantum systems, remains a challenge. In this paper, we propose several families of entanglement criteria for detecting entanglement in multipartite or high-dimensional quantum states by the generalized Wigner-Yanase skew information $I^s(ρ,X)$ for $-1\leq s\leq0$ and variance. We also reveal a complementary character between the criteria based on the generalized Wigner-Yanase skew information and an alternative one based on variance through specific examples. We illustrate the merits of these criteria and show that the combination of the entanglement criteria has a stronger detection capability, as it is capable of detecting entangled states that remain unrecognized by other criteria.

Detecting k -nonseparability and k -partite entanglement with generalized skew information and mutually unbiased measurements

Xiaofei Qi, Yuyang Pang, Jinchuan Hou

Abstract Multipartite quantum entanglement, as a core quantum resource, is fundamental to the advancement of quantum science and technology. In multipartite quantum systems, there are two kinds of quantum entanglement: k -nonseparability and k -partite entanglement. In this paper, we propose sufficient criteria for detecting k -nonseparability and k -partite entanglement by using the generalized Wigner–Yanase skew information and mutually unbiased measurements. Examples are given to demonstrate the detection capability and advantages of these criteria. As an application, an example of recognizing the networks by detecting the depth of quantum networks is given.

Multipartite entanglement detection via generalized Wigner–Yanase skew information

Yan Hong, Yabin Xing, Limin Gao +2 more

The detection of multipartite entanglement in multipartite quantum systems is a fundamental and key issue in quantum information theory.In this paper, we investigate $k$-nonseparability and $k$-partite entanglement of $N$-partitequantum systems from the perspective of the generalized Wigner-Yanase skew information introduced by Yang $et$ $al$.[\href{https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.106.052401}{Phys. Rev. A \textbf{106}, 052401 (2022)}]. More specifically, we develop two different approaches in form of inequalities to construct entanglement criteria, which are expressed in terms of the generalized Wigner-Yanase skew information.Any violation of these inequalities by a quantum state reveals its $k$-nonseparability or $k$-partite entanglement,so these inequalities present the hierarchic classifications of $k$-nonseparability or $k$-partite entanglement for all $N$-partite quantum states from $N$-nonseparability to $2$-nonseparability or from $2$-partite entanglement to $N$-partite entanglement, which are more refined than well-known ways. It is shown that our results reveal some $k$-nonseparability and $k$-partite entanglement that remain undetected by other methods,and these are illustrated through some examples.

Strong entanglement criteria for mixed states, based on uncertainty relations

Manju, Asoka Biswas, Shubhrangshu Dasgupta

Abstract We propose an entanglement criterion, specially designed for mixed states, based on uncertainty relation and the Wigner–Yanase skew information. The variances in this uncertainty relation do not involve any classical mixing uncertainty, and is therefore purely of quantum mechanical nature. We show that a large class of mixed entangled states can be characterized by our criterion. We demonstrate its utility for several generalized mixed entangled state including two-qubit and two-qutrit Werner states and it turns out, for the states discussed in this paper, to be stronger than any other known criterion in identifying the correct domain of relevant parameters for entanglement. The relevant uncertainty relation reduces to the Schrodinger–Robertson inequality for pure states.

Wigner-Yanase skew information as tests for quantum entanglement

Zeqian Chen

A Bell-type inequality is proposed in terms of Wigner-Yanase skew information, which is quadratic and involves only one local spin observable at each site. This inequality presents a hierarchic classification of all states of multipartite quantum systems from separable to fully entangled states, which is more powerful than the one presented by quadratic Bell inequalities from two-entangled to fully entangled states. In particular, it is proved that the inequality provides an exact test to distinguish entangled from nonentangled pure states of two qubits. Our inequality sheds considerable light on relationships between quantum entanglement and information theory.
