Abstract

In this letter we discuss a new entanglement measure. It is based on the Hilbert-Schmidt norm of operators. We give an explicit formula for calculating the entanglement of a large set of states on C^2 \\times C^2. Furthermore we find some relations between the entanglement of relative entropy and the Hilbert-Schmidt entanglement. A rigorous definition of partial transposition is given in the appendix.

Concurrence as a Relative Entropy with Hilbert-Schmidt Distance in Bell Decomposable States

Seyed Javad Akhtarshenas, M. A. Jafarizadeh

Hilbert-Schmidt distance reduces to Euclidean distance in Bell decomposable states. Based on this, entanglement of these states are obtained according to the protocol proposed in Ref. [V. Vedral et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 2275 (1995)] with Hilbert-Schmidt distance. It is shown that this measure is equal to the concurrence and thus can be used to generate entanglement of formation. We also introduce a new measure of distance and show that under the action of restricted LQCC operations, the associated measure of entanglement transforms in the same way as the concurrence transforms .

The Hilbert-Schmidt norm as a measure of entanglement in spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain: generalized Bell inequality and distance between states

Saulo L L da Silva, Daniel H. T. Franco

In this letter, we show that the measure of entanglement using the generalized Bell inequality and the distance between states coincide when we use the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. Our conclusions apply to the spin-1/2 Heisenberg chains with interaction between the first neighbors.

On the relation between Schmidt coefficients and entanglement

Paolo Aniello, Cosmo Lupo

We consider the Schmidt decomposition of a bipartite density operator induced by the Hilbert-Schmidt scalar product, and we study the relation between the Schmidt coefficients and entanglement. First, we define the Schmidt equivalence classes of bipartite states. Each class consists of all the density operators (in a given bipartite Hilbert space) sharing the same set of Schmidt coefficients. Next, we review the role played by the Schmidt coefficients with respect to the separability criterion known as the ‘realignment ’ or ‘computable cross norm ’ criterion; in particular, we highlight the fact that this criterion relies only on the Schmidt equivalence class of a state. Then, the relevance — with regard to the characterization of entanglement — of the ‘symmetric polynomials ’ in the Schmidt coefficients and a new family of separability criteria that generalize the realignment criterion are discussed. Various interesting open problems are proposed. 1

Schmidt Operator Norms and Entanglement Theory

Nathaniel Johnston, David W. Kribs

We discuss the family of operator norms recently investigated in and some of their implications in quantum information. We referred to these norms as Schmidt norms since they derive from the Schmidt decomposition theorem for quantum states.These norms find applications to central problems in quantum information, including the problem of determining k-positivity of linear maps and entanglement witnesses, and finding bound entangled non-positive partial transpose states.

A new class of entanglement measures

Oliver Rudolph

We introduce new entanglement measures on the set of density operators on tensor product Hilbert spaces. These measures are based on the greatest cross norm on the tensor product of the sets of trace class operators on Hilbert space. We show that they satisfy the basic requirements on entanglement measures discussed in the literature, including convexity, invariance under local unitary operations and nonincrease under local quantum operations and classical communication.
