Maximally Entangled Multipartite States: A Brief Survey

Marco Enríquez, Iwona Wintrowicz, Karol Życzkowski

The problem of identifying maximally entangled quantum states of a composite quantum systems is analyzed. We review some states of multipartite systems distinguished with respect to certain measures of quantum entanglement. Numerical results obtained for 4-qubit pure states illustrate the fact that the notion of maximally entangled state depends on the measure used.

THE PROBLEM OF ENTANGLEMENT OF QUANTUM STATES

On Matem, Atica Argentina

G.A. RAGGIO Abstract. We give a brief and incomplete survey of the problem of entan- glement of of composite quantum systems. 1960's - 1980's there were serious attempts (all of them anticipated by J. von Neu- mann) to do away with the underlying Hilbert space and work directly with the abstract algebraic structure modeled by C � -algebras or W � -algebras (abstract von Neumann algebras)(1, 2, 3). This was particularly fruitful when dealing with sys- tems of infinitely many degrees of freedom (quantum fields, thermodynamic limits, etc.). The problem of entanglement which we want to address here can be formu- lated quite straightforwardly in this algebraic framework of quantum theory. But we will stick to the quantum mechanics of the 1930's and keep the Hilbert space. Mainly because the results which are available concern the finite dimensional case. The states of the quantum system specified by H are associated with the lin- ear functionals f : B(H) → C which are positive (i.e., f(a) ≥ 0 for all positive a ∈ B(H)), normalized (i.e., f(1) = 1) and normal (i.e., f(supn{an}) = supnf(an) for any increasing family of selfadjoint operators {an : n = 1,2, � � � } which is uni- formly bounded). It is this normality condition which guarantees that the are in one-to-one correspondence with positive trace class operators d of unit trace (density operators) via the formula B(H) ∋ a 7→ tr(da). This gives an extremely convenient representation of and one often confuses the state f as a linear functional with the associated density operator d for which f(a) = tr(da). States are automatically continuous, and satisfy f(a � ) = f(a). The complex number f(a) is interpreted probabilistically as the expected value of the observable associated with the operator a when the system is in the state f. The normalization condi- tion is thus necessary for the consistency of this interpretation and the normality condition is seen as a non-commutative version of the �-additivity of probability measures. Clearly states, which we will denote by �(H), form a convex set which is closed

Measuring correlations in quantum and statistical systems

V. I. Yukalov, E. P. Yukalova

The survey discusses the problem of measuring correlations in composite quantum and statistical systems. After briefly recalling the standard methods of describing correlations, the emphasis is on the method of correlation indices. The latter method for quantifying the strength of correlations in composite physical systems is sufficiently general allowing for measuring in a unique way the correlation strength in both quantum and statistical systems, for static as well as for dynamic processes. The correlation indices, can be defined for correlation operators, reduced density matrices, and other operators containing information on correlations in the studied composite systems. The correlation indices measure all types of correlations, quantum correlations, such as entanglement, as well as classical correlations. They are applicable for characterizing static as well as dynamical processes. Examples are given of correlation indices for several quantum states and for spin and pseudospin systems. The quantification of correlations in a nonequilibrium system is exemplified by calculating the correlation index for a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate subject to the action of an alternating field.
