Abstract

We show, for a state ψ of a quantum system with the dynamic symmetry given by the Lie group G, total amount of quantum information and entanglement is provided by summarized uncertainty of basic observables.

General entanglement

Alexander A. Klyachko, A.S. Shumovsky

The paper contains a brief review of an approach to quantum entanglement based on analysis of dynamic symmetry of systems and quantum uncertainties, accompanying the measurement of mean value of certain basic observables. The latter are defined in terms of the orthogonal basis of Lie algebra, corresponding to the dynamic symmetry group. We discuss the relativity of entanglement with respect to the choice of basic observables and a way of stabilization of robust entanglement in physical systems.

Quantification of entanglement via uncertainties

Alexander A. Klyachko, Barış Öztop, A.S. Shumovsky

We show that entanglement of pure multiparty states can be quantified by means of quantum uncertainties of certain basic observables through the use of a measure that was initially proposed by Klyachko et al. [Appl. Phys. Lett. 88, 124102 (2006)] for bipartite systems.

Single Qutrit Entanglement

Sinem Binicioǧlu, Alexander A. Klyachko, A.S. Shumovsky

We discussed a recent approach to quantum entanglement. The approach is based on presetting of basic observables of quantum system. Entangled states are interpreted as states with maximal amount of uncertainty of all basic observables.

General approach to quantum entanglement

Alexander A. Klyachko, A.S. Shumovsky

We examine quantum entanglement as a physical phenomenon independent of specific problems of quantum information technologies. Within the dynamic symmetry approach, we briefly discuss the role of quantum fluctuations in formation of entangled states, including single-particle entanglement, relativity of entanglement with respect to the choice of basic observables, and stabilization of robust entanglement.

Toolbox for reconstructing quantum theory from rules on information acquisition

Philipp A. Höhn

We develop an operational approach for reconstructing the quantum theory of qubit systems from elementary rules on information acquisition. The focus lies on an observer O interrogating a system S with binary questions and S 's state is taken as O 's `catalogue of knowledge' about S . The mathematical tools of the framework are simple and we attempt to highlight all underlying assumptions. Four rules are imposed, asserting (1) a limit on the amount of information available to O ; (2) the mere existence of complementary information; (3) O 's total amount of information to be preserved in-between interrogations; and, (4) O 's `catalogue of knowledge' to change continuously in time in-between interrogations and every consistent such evolution to be possible. This approach permits a {\it constructive} derivation of quantum theory, elucidating how the ensuing independence, complementarity and compatibility structure of O 's questions matches that of projective measurements in quantum theory, how entanglement and monogamy of entanglement, non-locality and, more generally, how the correlation structure of arbitrarily many qubits and rebits arises. The rules yield a reversible time evolution and a quadratic measure, quantifying O 's information about S . Finally, it is shown that the four rules admit two solutions for the simplest case of a single elementary system: the Bloch ball and disc as state spaces for a qubit and rebit, respectively, together with their symmetries as time evolution groups. The reconstruction for arbitrarily many qubits is completed in a companion paper [P. A. Höhn and C. S. P. Wever, Phys. Rev. A 95 (2017) 012102] where an additional rule eliminates the rebit case. This approach is inspired by (but does not rely on) the relational interpretation and yields a novel formulation of quantum theory in terms of questions.

Total, classical and quantum uncertainties generated by channels

Yizhou Liu, Shunlong Luo, Yuan Sun

States and channels are fundamental and instrumental ingredients of quantum mechanics. Their interplay not only encodes information about states but also reflects uncertainties of channels. In order to quantify intrinsic uncertainties generated by channels, we exploit the action of a channel on an orthonormal basis in the space of observables from three different perspectives. The first concerns the uncertainty generated by a channel via noncommutativity between the Kraus operators of the channel and an orthonormal basis of observables, which can be interpreted as a kind of quantifier of the total uncertainty generated by a channel. The second concerns the uncertainty in terms of the Tsallis- $$2$$ entropy of the Jamiołkowski–Choi state associated with the channel via the channel–state duality, which can be interpreted as a quantifier of the classical uncertainty generated by a channel. The third concerns the uncertainty of a channel as the deviation from the identity channel in terms of the Hilbert–Schmidt distance, which can be interpreted as a kind of quantifier of the quantum uncertainty generated by a channel. We reveal basic properties of these quantifiers of uncertainties and establish a relation between them. We identify channels producing the minimal/maximal uncertainties for these three quantifiers. Finally, we explicitly evaluate these uncertainty quantifiers for various important channels, use them to gain insights into the channels from an information-theoretic perspective, and comparatively study the quantifiers.
