Conditions for Local Entanglement Manipulation from Pure States to Mixed States

Abstract

We discuss the transformation from pure states to mixed states in a bipartite system H A ⊗ H B and provide the sufficient condition for this transformation. We also provide a necessary and sufficient condition for one class of this transformation. Meanwhile, the method of realization for the transformation from pure states to mixed states is also present. Furthermore, we briefly discuss the application.

Catalysis of Entanglement Manipulation for Mixed States

Jens Eisert, Martin Wilkens

We consider entanglement-assisted remote quantum state manipulation of bipartite mixed states. Several aspects are addressed: we present a class of mixed states of rank two that can be transformed into another class of mixed states under entanglement-assisted local operations with classical communication, but for which such a transformation is impossible without assistance. Furthermore, we demonstrate enhancement of the efficiency of purification protocols with the help of entanglement-assisted operations. Finally, transformations from one mixed state to mixed target states which are sufficiently close to the source state are contrasted with similar transformations in the pure-state case.

Algorithm for entanglement transformation of pure states

Yongming Li

The quantum entanglement is the necessary resource,which could realize some quantum tasks.It is very important to study the algorithm for the entanglement transformation between the quantum states determinately or probability.An algorithm first is presented that transforms one pure bipartite quantum state into a mixed bipartite by Local Operations and Classical Communication(LOCC),this algorithm is much simpler than the original algorithm.The algorithm for the transformation between two pure bipartite states with catalysis by LOCC is then discussed.

Conditions for a Class of Entanglement Transformations

Michael A. Nielsen

Suppose Alice and Bob jointly possess a pure state, $|\ensuremath{\psi}〉$. Using local operations on their respective systems and classical communication it may be possible for Alice and Bob to transform $|\ensuremath{\psi}〉$ into another joint state $|\ensuremath{\varphi}〉$. This Letter gives necessary and sufficient conditions for this process of entanglement transformation to be possible. These conditions reveal a partial ordering on the entangled states and connect quantum entanglement to the algebraic theory of majorization. As a consequence, we find that there exist essentially different types of entanglement for bipartite quantum systems.

Conditions for the Local Manipulation of Gaussian States

Jens Eisert, Martin Bodo Plenio

We present a general necessary and sufficient criterion for the possibility of a state transformation from one mixed Gaussian state to another of a bipartite continuous-variable system with two modes. The class of operations that will be considered is the set of local Gaussian completely positive trace-preserving maps.

Entanglement transformations of pure Gaussian states

G. Giedke, Jens Eisert, J. I. Cirac +1 more

We present a theory of entanglement transformations of Gaussian pure states with local Gaussian operations and classical communication. This is the experimentally accessible set of operations that can be realized with optical elements such as beam splitters, phase shifts and squeezers, together with homodyne measurements. We provide a simple necessary and sufficient condition for the possibility to transform a pure bipartite Gaussian state into another one. We contrast our criterion with what is possible if general local operations are available.
