Entanglement,Identical Particles and the Uncertainty Principle

Gustavo, Rigolin

Published Jan 1, 2016• 0 citations

Abstract

A new uncertainty relation(UR) is obtained for a system of N identical pure entangled particles if we use symmetrized observables when deriving the inequality. This new expression can be written in a form where we identify a term which explicitly shows the quantum correlations among the particles that constitute the system. For the particular cases of two and three particles, making use of the Schwarz inequality, we obtain new lower bounds for the UR that are different from the standard one.

Quantum system: Wave function, entanglement and the uncertainty principle

Alexey V. Melkikh

A definition of entanglement based on the overlap of wave functions of identical particles is proposed. A definition of a quantum system of particles related to their entanglement with each other and the environment is proposed. It is shown that in the general case, the uncertainty principle cannot be formulated for a system of quantum particles in the form of a single inequality.

Reformulating the Quantum Uncertainty Relation

Junli Li, Cong‐Feng Qiao

Uncertainty principle is one of the cornerstones of quantum theory. In the literature, there are two types of uncertainty relations, the operator form concerning the variances of physical observables and the entropy form related to entropic quantities. Both these forms are inequalities involving pairwise observables, and are found to be nontrivial to incorporate multiple observables. In this work we introduce a new form of uncertainty relation which may give out complete trade-off relations for variances of observables in pure and mixed quantum systems. Unlike the prevailing uncertainty relations, which are either quantum state dependent or not directly measurable, our bounds for variances of observables are quantum state independent and immune from the "triviality" problem of having zero expectation values. Furthermore, the new uncertainty relation may provide a geometric explanation for the reason why there are limitations on the simultaneous determination of different observables in N-dimensional Hilbert space.

Entanglement and the generalized uncertainty principle

Gardo Blado, Francisco Herrera, Joshuah Erwin

We examine quantum gravity effects on entanglement by a straightforward application of the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) to continuous-variable systems. In particular, we study the following cases: the modified uncertainty relation of two identical entangled particles (Rigolin, 2002), and the inseparability conditions for entangled particles in the bipartite (Duan, Giedke, Cirac and Zoller, 2000) and tripartite (van Loock and Furusawa, 2003) cases. Rigolin showed a decrease in the lower bound of the product of the uncertainties of the position and momentum for two identical entangled particles while Duan and van Loock derived inseparability conditions for EPR-like operators. In all three cases, the GUP correction resulted in a higher value of the bounds: a higher lower bound for the Rigolin's result and a higher upper bound for the inseparability condition in Duan's and van Loock's relations. In Rigolin's case, the GUP correction decreased the disagreement with the Heisenberg uncertainty relation while in Duan's and Loock's cases,the inseparability and entanglement conditions are enhanced. Interestingly, the GUP corrections tend to make quantum mechanical effects more pronounced.

A simple derivation of the Schrödinger uncertainty relation

Gustavo Rigolin

Abstract We show how the Schrödinger uncertainty relation for a pair of observables can be deduced using the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality plus successive applications of the commutation relation involving the two observables. Our derivation differs from the original one in the sense that we do not need the expansion of the product of these two observables in a sum of symmetrical and anti-symmetrical operators.

Uncertainty relations and entanglement in fermion systems

Claudia Zander, Angel Ricardo Plastino

The violation of uncertainty relations is used as a signature of entanglement for both pure and mixed states of two identical fermions. In the case of fermions with a four-dimensional single-particle Hilbert space we obtain several different types of uncertainty-related entanglement criteria based on local uncertainty relations, on the sum of variances of projectors, and on various entropic measures. Within the latter approach we consider either entropic uncertainty relations involving a single observable or relations based upon the sum of entropies associated with more than one observable. We extend the projector-based entanglement criterion to the case of two-fermion and three-fermion systems with a six-dimensional single-particle Hilbert space.
