Bipartite entanglement and localization of one-particle states

Li, H, Wang, X, Hu, B

Published Aug 22, 2003• 14 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

We study bipartite entanglement in a general one-particle state, and find that the linear entropy, quantifying the bipartite entanglement, is directly connected to the paricitpation ratio, charaterizing the state localization. The more extended the state is, the more entangled the state. We apply the general formalism to investigate ground-state and dynamical properties of entanglement in the one-dimensional Harper model.

ENTANGLEMENT MEASURE OF BIPARTITE SYSTEM STATES

K. Berrada, Y. Hassouni

Linear entropy as a measure of entanglement is applied to explain conditions for minimal and maximal entanglement of bipartite nonorthogonal pure states. We formulate this measure in terms of the amplitudes of coherent states in the case of entangled coherent states and calculate the conditions. We generalize this formalism to the case of bipartite mixed states and show that the entanglement measure is also a function of the probabilities.

Quantifying the unextendibility of entanglement*

Kun Wang, Xin Wang, Mark M. Wilde

Abstract Entanglement is a striking feature of quantum mechanics, and it has a key property called unextendibility. In this paper, we present a framework for quantifying and investigating the unextendibility of general bipartite quantum states. First, we define the unextendible entanglement, a family of entanglement measures based on the concept of a state-dependent set of free states. The intuition behind these measures is that the more entangled a bipartite state is, the less entangled each of its individual systems is with a third party. Second, we demonstrate that the unextendible entanglement is an entanglement monotone under two-extendible quantum operations, including local operations and one-way classical communication as a special case. Normalization and faithfulness are two other desirable properties of unextendible entanglement, which we establish here. We further show that the unextendible entanglement provides efficiently computable benchmarks for the rate of exact entanglement or secret key distillation, as well as the overhead of probabilistic entanglement or secret key distillation.

Numerical studies of quantum lattice systems

Alexios A. Michailidis

The research work in this thesis is based on strongly interacting quantum lattice systems. The biggest part of research was conducted using state-of-the-art tensor network simulations. Tensor networks provide efficient and highly accurate representations of quantum states when any simply connected patch of the quantum state is slightly entangled. Matrix Product States (MPS) is a tensor network representation for quantum states which is quasi-exact for one-dimensional systems when entanglement entropy of any bipartition of the state follows ``area-law". Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS) is the extension of MPS for higher dimensional systems, where entanglement entropy area-law is non-trivial. These formalisms and their relevant ground state optimization techniques, Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) for MPS and Simple Update (SU) with Tensor Renormalization Group (TRG) for PEPS are thoroughly analysed. Entanglement entropy area-law is usually obeyed by the ground state of local Hamiltonians, while generic highly excited states follow a volume-law (they span a finite part of the Hilbert space). Recently, a class of interacting system was shown to undergo a dynamical phase transition (Many Body Localization) where the entropy of every eigenstate follows an area-law. This transition is achieved when the system is highly disordered and the quantum many body state becomes localized similarly to the free particle Anderson localization. The area-law property makes highly excited eigenstates of Many Body Localized (MBL) systems efficiently represented by the MPS ansatz. We develop a highly optimized algorithm (eDMRG) which goes beyond ground state optimization and successfully target eigenstates in any part of the spectrum. This algorithm is used together with analytical calculations, based on local integrability of MBL systems, to identify the universal behaviour of the entanglement spectrum of highly excited eigenstates in MBL systems. In the second part we study interacting bosons in 2D optical lattices. Strongly interacting bosons are simulated using the Bose-Hubbard (BH) model when the interactions are strictly local and the Extended Bose-Hubbard (EBH) model, when additional dipolar interactions are present. The ground states of BH/EBH Hamiltonians in a hexagonal lattice are studied. The phase spectrum includes various insulating and critical phases which are studied in detail using infinite-PEPS ansatz. Additional results on entanglement entropy scaling with respect to the filling of the lattice are presented. Finally, a strongly interacting Harper-Hofstadter Hamiltonian is realized by combining synthetic fields with the BH model. The homogeneity of the system is then broken by a parabolic trapping potential, similar to the ones used in cold atom experiments. Using time-dependent Gutzwiller ansatz (GA) the expansion dynamics of the cloud in large square lattices are studied. In contrast to the expansion dynamics of the BH model, it is found that the synthetic fields generate a self-trapping effect. Using phenomenology and simulations the dynamics are studied in the hard-core and soft-core limit.

Detecting and localizing multipartite entanglement by two-partite methods

Roman Gielerak, Marek Sawerwain

A notion of partial entanglement in multipartite systems is discussed. Some algorithms for detecting and localizing the introduced partial entanglement in general multipartite quantum states are presented. The main feature of the methods presented is that they are exclusively based on two-partite methods.

Characterizing localization properties of two spinless electrons in a one-dimensional Harper model with concurrence

Gong Long-Yan, Tong Pei-Qing

By mapping the Fock space of many local fermionic modes isomorphically onto a many-qubit space and using the measure of concurrence, this paper studies numerically the mode entanglement of two spinless electrons with on-site interaction U moving in the one-dimensional Harper model. Generally speaking, for electrons in extended regimes (potential parameter λ < 2), the spectrum-averaged concurrence N〈C〉 first decreases slowly as λ increases until its local minimum, then increases with λ until its peak at λ = 2, while for electrons in localized regimes (λ > 2), N〈C〉 decreases drastically as λ increases. The functions of N 〈C〉 versus λ are different for electrons in extended and localized regimes. The maximum of N〈C〉 occurs at the point λ = 2, which is the critical value in the one-dimensional single-particle Harper model. From these studies it can distinguish extended, localized and critical regimes for the two-particle system. It is also found for the same λ that the interaction U always induce the decreases of concurrence, i.e., the concurrence can reflect the localization effect due to the interaction. All these provide us a new quantity to understand the localization properties of eigenstates of two interacting particles.
