Concurrence in arbitrary dimensions

Abstract

We argue that a complete characterisation of quantum correlations in bipartite systems of many dimensions may require a quantity which, even for pure states, does not reduce to a single number. Subsequently, we introduce multi-dimensional generalizations of concurrence and find evidence that they may provide useful tools for the analysis of quantum correlations in mixed bipartite states. We also introudce {\\it biconcurrence} that leads to a necessary and sufficient condition for separability.

A note on generalized concurrences and entanglement detection

Cattaneo, Laura, Domenico D’Alessandro

We study generalized concurrences as a tool to detect the entanglement of bipartite quantum systems. By considering the case of 2 X 4 states of rank 2, we prove that generalized concurrences do not, in general, give a necessary and sufficient condition of separability. We identify a set of entangled states which are undetected by this method.

Necessary and sufficient range-dimension conditions for bipartite quantum correlations

Fedor Herbut

As is well known, every mixed or pure state of a bipartite quantum system is given by a statistical operator, which determines, in terms of its two reduced statistical operators, the subsystem states. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a composite-system state, and, separately, for the possibility of its being correlated or uncorrelated in terms of the range dimensions of the three mentioned statistical operators are derived. As a corollary, it is shown that it cannot happen that two of the mentioned dimensions are finite and the third is infinite.

Concurrence of mixed quantum states in multi-partite systems

Florian Mintert, Marek Kuś, Andreas Buchleitner

We propose generalizations of concurrence for multi-partite quantum systems that can distinguish qualitatively distinct quantum correlations. All introduced quantities can be evaluated efficiently for arbitrary mixed sates.

Concurrence of Mixed Bipartite Quantum States in Arbitrary Dimensions

Florian Mintert, Marek Kuś, Andreas Buchleitner

We derive a lower bound for the concurrence of mixed bipartite quantum states, valid in arbitrary dimensions. As a corollary, a weaker, purely algebraic estimate is found, which detects mixed entangled states with a positive partial transpose.

Generalized concurrences do not provide necessary and sufficient conditions for entanglement detection
