Quantitative complementarity between local and nonlocal character of quantum states in a three-qubit system

Xinhua Peng, Jingfu Zhang, Jiangfeng Du +1 more

Local or nonlocal character of quantum states can be quantified and is subject to various bounds that can be formulated as complementarity relations. Here, we investigate the local vs nonlocal character of pure three-qubit states by a four-way interferometer. The complete entanglement in the system can be measured as the entanglement of a specific qubit with the subsystem consisting of the other two qubits. The quantitative complementarity relations are verified experimentally in an NMR quantum information processor.

Complementarity in Quantum Information Processing Tasks

Jaya Chaubey, Sourav Chatterjee, Indranil Chakrabarty

Complementarity have been an intriguing feature of physical systems for a long time. In this work we establish a new kind of complimentary relations in the frame work of quantum information processing tasks. In broadcasting of entanglement we create many pairs of less entangled states from a given entangled state both by local and non local cloning operations. These entangled states can be used in various information processing tasks like teleportation and superdense coding. Since these states are less entangled states it is quite intuitive that these states are not going to be as powerful resource as the initial states. In this work we study the usefulness of these states in tasks like teleportation and super dense coding. More precisely, we found out bounds of their capabilities in terms of several complimentary relations involving fidelity of broadcasting. In principle we have considered general mixed as a resource also separately providing different examples like a) Werner like states, b) Bell diagonal states. Here we have used both local and non local cloning operations as means of broadcasting. In the later part of our work, we extend this result by obtaining bounds in form of complimentary relations in a situation where we have used $1-N$ cloning transformations instead of $1-2$ cloning transformations.

Mutually exclusive aspects of information carried by physical systems: Complementarity between local and nonlocal information

Jonathan Oppenheim, Karol Horodecki, Michał Horodecki +2 more

Complex physical systems contain information which, under some well-defined processes can differentiate between local and nonlocal information. Both these fundamental aspects of information are defined operationally. Local information is locally accessible and allows one to perform processes, such as physical work, while nonlocal information allows one to perform processes such as teleportation. It is shown that these two kinds of information are complementary in the sense that two parties can either gain access to the nonlocal information or to the local information but not both. This complementarity has a form similar to that expressed by entropic uncertainty relations. For pure states, the entanglement plays the role of Planck's constant. We also find another class of complementarity relations which applies to operators and is induced when two parties can only perform local operations and communicate classical (LOCC). In particular, observables such as the parity and phase of two qubits commute but under LOCC, they are complementary observables. It is also found this complementarity is pure in the sense that it can be ``decoupled'' from the uncertainty principle. It is suggested that these complementarities represent an essential extension of Bohr's complementarity to complex (distributed) systems which are entangled.
