Entanglement Criterion for Bipartite Quantum States: Applications

Truong Minh Duc, Nguyen Thi Xuan Hoai

Published Aug 15, 2012• 2 citations
Publisher

Abstract

In this paper, we use a criterion provided by E. Shchukin and W. Vogel [Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 230502 (2005)] for determining when a bipartite quantum state is entangled. We first show that the entanglement criterion is necessary and sufficient condition for the partial transposition of the bipartite quantum states. Furthermore, previously known entanglement criteria are proved to be special cases of this criterion. We then apply the entanglement criterion to determine entangled property of several non-classical two-mode states. Finally, we provide the conclusion about this criterion.

A sufficient and necessary criterion for separability of bipartite quantum states

Hui Zhao, Xinyu Yu

A sufficient and necessary criterion for separability of bipartite quantum states is presented. We construct a class of mixed states in 2 ⊗ k quantum systems and in 3 ⊗ k quantum systems, respectively and show that these states are separable if and only if they are positive partial transpositions.

Finer Characterizations of Pure Bipartite Entanglement

Che-Hsu Li

A new criterion necessary and sufficient for the separability of pure bipartite systems for arbitrary finite dimensions is demonstrated; and the corresponding finer quantitative measures or characterizations of entanglement (beyond mere separability or non-separability determination) are discussed. Based on this criterion, we proved that the well-known Peres-Horodecki positivity-of-partial-transform criterion is also necessary and sufficient for separability in the case of pure bipartite systems. The maximum value of entanglement, and the corresponding maximally-entangled states are also worked out in detail.

Entanglement in SU(2)-invariant quantum systems: The PPT criterion and others

John Schliemann

We study entanglement in mixed bipartite quantum states which are invariant under simultaneous SU(2) transformations in both subsystems. Previous results on the behavior of such states under partial transposition are substantially extended. The spectrum of the partial transpose of a given SU(2)-invariant density matrix $\\rho$ is entirely determined by the diagonal elements of $\\rho$ in a basis of tensor-product states of both spins with respect to a common quantization axis. We construct a set of operators which act as entanglement witnesses on SU(2)-invariant states. A sufficient criterion for $\\rho$ having a negative partial transpose is derived in terms of a simple spin correlator. The same condition is a necessary criterion for the partial transpose to have the maximum number of negative eigenvalues. Moreover, we derive a series of sum rules which uniquely determine the eigenvalues of the partial transpose in terms of a system of linear equations. Finally we compare our findings with other entanglement criteria including the reduction criterion, the majorization criterion, and the recently proposed local uncertainty relations.

Entanglement Criteria for All Bipartite Gaussian States

G. Giedke, Barbara Kraus, Maciej Lewenstein +1 more

We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for separability of Gaussian states of bipartite systems of arbitrarily many modes. The condition provides an operational criterion since it can be checked by simple computation. Moreover, it allows us to find a pure product-state decomposition of any given separable Gaussian state. We also show that all bipartite Gaussian states with nonpositive partial transpose are distillable.

Entanglement conditions for two-mode states: Applications

Mark S. Hillery, Muhammad Suhail Zubairy

We examine the implications of several recently derived conditions [Hillery and Zubairy, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 050503 (2006)] for determining when a two-mode state is entangled. We first find examples of non-Gaussian states that satisfy these conditions. We then apply the entanglement conditions to the study of several linear devices, the beam splitter, the parametric amplifier, and the linear phase-insensitive amplifier. For the first two, we find conditions on the input states that guarantee that the output states are entangled. For the linear amplifier, we determine in the limit of high and no gain, when an entangled input leads to an entangled output. Finally, we show how application of two two-mode entanglement conditions to a three-mode state can serve as a test of genuine three-mode entanglement.

Multipartite entanglement based on realignment moments

Hui Zhao, Zhuang, Shu-Ying, Naihuan Jing +1 more

Based on the realignment moments of density matrix, we study parameterized entanglement criteria for bipartite and multipartite states. By adjusting the different parameter values, our criterion can detect not only bound entangled states, but also non-positive partial transpose entangled states for bipartite quantum systems. Moreover, we propose the definition of multipartite realignment moments and generalize the result of bipartite systems to obtain a sufficient criterion to detect entanglement for multipartite quantum states in arbitrary dimensions. And we further improve the conclusion to obtain another new entanglement criterion. The new method can detect more entangled states than previous methods as backed by detailed examples.
