The bipartite entanglement in Fermi gas without interaction is investigated when there are three fermions in the system. The negativity and the von Neumann entropy are employed to measure the entanglement of the system. The position of the third fermion can affect the entanglement between the first and the second fermions. The entanglement can be enhanced or suppressed when the third fermion changes its position. When the two fermions are at the same position or when their distance is more than 2.0/k F , the third fermion cannot affect them.

We investigate multipartite entanglement in a noninteracting fermion gas, as a function of fermion separation, starting from the many particle fermion density matrix. We prove that all multiparticle entanglement can be built only out of two-fermion entanglement. Although from the Pauli exclusion principle we would always expect entanglement to decrease with fermion distance, we surprisingly find the opposite effect for certain fermion configurations. The von Neumann entropy is found to be proportional to the volume for a large number of particles even when they are arbitrarily close to each other. We will illustrate our results using different configurations of two, three, and four fermions at zero temperature although all our results can be applied to any temperature and any number of particles.
The bipartite entanglement in ideal noninteracting Fermi gas system with spin-1/2 and pseudospin-1/2 degrees of freedom was investigated.Because of the enlarging of state space by two degrees of freedom,the distribution of bipartite entanglement of fermions whose number is no more than four is similar to the entanglement distribution of two fermions and completely different with the distribution of multiparticle entanglement in spin-1/2 noninteraction Fermi gas.The relative entangled distance of two fermions in two degrees of freedom system is about 2.7 times larger than that of single spin-1/2 system.Entanglement between two fermions of one degree of freedom always equals zero,which means that this entanglement or quantum correlation comes from interactions of system.
We study genuine tripartite entanglement shared among the spins of three localized fermions in the noninteracting Fermi gas at zero temperature. First, we prove analytically with the aid of entanglement witnesses that in a particular configuration the three fermions are genuinely tripartite entangled in spin. Then various three-fermion configurations are investigated in order to quantify and calculate numerically the amount of genuine tripartite entanglement present in the system. Further we give a lower and an upper limit to the maximum diameter of the three-fermion configuration below which genuine tripartite entanglement exists and find that this distance is comparable with the maximum separation between two entangled fermions. The upper and lower limit turn out to be very close to each other indicating that the applied witness operator is well suited to reveal genuine tripartite entanglement in the collection of noninteracting fermions.
The entanglement of the N-harmonium system (i.e., a completely-integrable model of N particles where both the confinement and the two-particle interaction are har-monic) is shown to be analytically determined in terms of N and the relative interaction strength. First, the entanglement of the N-boson system via the von Neumann entropy is computed by use of the corresponding natural occupation numbers. Below a critical value Nc of N it is found that, for positive values of the coupling constant the entan-glement grows when the number of particles is increasing; opposite situation occurs for N> Nc. Then the entanglement of the N-fermion system is investigated by means of the linear entropy, which is a linearized form of the von Neumann entropy of the one-body reduced density matrix. We have shown that the entanglement grows when the number of particles is increasing in the region of negative coupling. For positively increasing values of the coupling the entanglement as a function of N varies according to various regimes. Moreover, in the strong coupling regime the entropy of the system decreases when N is growing. For fixed N, the entanglement is found (a) to decrease (increase) for negatively (positively) increasing values of the coupling constant, and (b) to grow when the energy is increasing. Finally, let us point out that the spatial and spin contributions to the total entanglement are of comparable size.
We investigate quantum correlations in the ground state of noninteracting Fermi gases of N particles trapped by an external space-dependent harmonic potential, in any dimension. For this purpose we compute one-particle correlations, particle fluctuations, and bipartite entanglement entropies of extended space regions, and study their large-N scaling behaviors. The half-space von Neumann entanglement entropy is computed for any dimension, obtaining ${S}_{\mathrm{HS}}\ensuremath{\approx}{c}_{l}{N}^{(d\ensuremath{-}1)/d}\mathrm{ln}N$ analogously to homogenous systems, with cl=1/6,1/(62),1/(66) in one, two, and three dimensions, respectively. We show that the asymptotic large-N relation ${S}_{A}\ensuremath{\approx}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{2}{V}_{A}/3$, between the von Neumann entanglement entropy SA and particle variance VA of an extended space region A, holds for any subsystem A and in any dimension, analogously to homogeneous noninteracting Fermi gases.
Abstract We study the statistical behavior of entanglement in quantum bipartite systems over fermionic Gaussian states as measured by von Neumann entropy and entanglement capacity. The focus is on the variance of von Neumann entropy and the mean entanglement capacity that belong to the so-defined second-order statistics. The main results are the exact yet explicit formulas of the two considered second-order statistics for fixed subsystem dimension differences. We also conjecture the exact variance of von Neumann entropy valid for arbitrary subsystem dimensions. Based on the obtained results, we analytically study the numerically observed phenomena of Gaussianity of von Neumann entropy and linear growth of average capacity.
