Hierarchy of tripartite entanglement detection in a cavity magnomechanical system

Abstract

Abstract We propose a criterion for detecting quantum states containing non-zero entanglement with respect to all possible bipartitions of a tripartite system. Our criterion, together with two other criteria, forms a hierarchy of tripartite entanglement detection, revealing three distinct types: genuine tripartite entanglement, entanglement with respect to all bipartitions, and standard tripartite entanglement. Furthermore, we present a feasible scheme for generating and detecting this hierarchy of tripartite entanglement within a cavity magnomechanical system. Our research paves the way for generating and detecting tripartite entanglement hierarchies in continuous variable systems.

Entanglement criterion for tripartite systems based on local sum uncertainty relations

Y. Akbari-Kourbolagh, M. Azhdargalam

We propose a sufficient criterion for the entanglement of tripartite systems based on local sum uncertainty relations for arbitrarily chosen observables of subsystems. This criterion generalizes the tighter criterion for bipartite systems introduced by Zhang et al. [C.-J. Zhang, H. Nha, Y.-S. Zhang, and G.-C. Guo, Phys. Rev. A 81, 012324 (2010)] and can be used for both discrete- and continuous-variable systems. It enables us to detect the entanglement of quantum states without having a complete knowledge of them. Its utility is illustrated by some examples of three-qubit, qutrit-qutrit-qubit, and three-mode Gaussian states. It is found that, in comparison with other criteria, this criterion is able to detect some three-qubit bound entangled states more efficiently.

Correlation criteria for Bell type inequalities and entanglement detection

Che‐Ming Li, Li‐Yi Hsu, Weiyang Lin +3 more

We provide a novel criterion for identifying quantum correlation, which allows us to find connections between Bell type inequalities, entanglement detection, and correlation. We utilize the criterion to construct witness operators that can detect genuine multi-qubit entanglement with fewer local measurements. The connection between identifications of quantum correlation and Mermin's inequality is discussed. Detection of genuine four-level tripartite entanglement with two local measurement settings is shown in the same manner. Further, through the criterion of quantum correlation, we derive a new Bell inequality for arbitrary high-dimensional bipartite systems, which requires fewer analyses of the measured outcomes.

Hierarchy of Genuine Tripartite Non-Gaussian Entanglement

Da Zhang, David Barral, Yanpeng Zhang +2 more

Triple-photon states generated by three-mode spontaneous parametric down-conversion are the paradigm of unconditional non-Gaussian states, essential assets for quantum advantage. How to fully characterize their non-Gaussian entanglement remains however elusive. We propose here a hierarchy of sufficient and necessary conditions for separability of the broad family of spontaneously-generated three-mode non-Gaussian states. We further derive state-of-the-art conditions for genuine tripartite non-Gaussian entanglement, the strongest class of entanglement. We apply our criteria to triple-photon states revealing that they are fully inseparable and genuinely entangled in moments of order 3n. Our results establish a systematic framework for characterizing the entanglement of triple-photon states and thus fostering their application in quantum information protocols.

Continuous variable multipartite entanglement in cascaded nonlinearities

Goutam Misra, Ashok Kumar

Abstract Multipartite entanglement is the crucial requirement for quantum information processing, quantum computation, quantum communication and quantum sensing. Therefore, the generation and characterization of such entanglement are primary goals in quantum technologies. Here we theoretically study the multipartite continuous-variable quadrature entanglement generated by three symmetric cascaded nonlinear optical systems. Such cascaded systems allow us to study the bipartite, tripartite and quadripartite entanglement. We use different continuous-variable entanglement criteria to characterize the entanglement. We observe that only a few bipartite combinations show the entanglement out of all possible combinations, while most tripartite combinations are entangled. Interestingly such a system depicts a full quadripartite entanglement. Moreover, we show that, unlike the quadrature sum-variance entanglement criterion, the negative partial transpose criterion can show the entanglement in most cases. The present comprehensive analysis of the generation and characterization of the continuous-variable entanglement with cascaded systems would pave the way to realizing a complex quantum network.

Detecting multipartite entanglement via complete orthogonal basis

Hui Zhao, Jia Hao, Jing Li +3 more

We study genuine tripartite entanglement and multipartite entanglement in arbitrary n-partite quantum systems based on complete orthogonal basis (COB). While the usual Bloch representation of a density matrix uses three types of generators, the density matrix with COB operators has one uniformed type of generators which may simplify related computations. We take the advantage of this simplicity to derive useful and operational criteria to detect genuine tripartite entanglement and multipartite entanglement. We first convert the general states to simpler forms by using the relationship between general symmetric informationally complete measurements and COB. Then we derive an operational criteria to detect genuine tripartite entanglement. We study multipartite entanglement in arbitrary dimensional multipartite systems. By providing detailed examples, we demonstrate that our criteria can detect more genuine entangled and multipartite entangled states than the previously existing criteria.

A critical evaluation of bipartite entanglement and steering measures in a genuinely tripartite entangled system

M. K. Olsen

A large number of inequalities have been proposed for the detection of bipartite continuous variable entanglement and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering. Many of these are based on either measured or inferred variances and are relatively easily measured via homodyne detection of optical outputs. In this work we examine a number of bipartite inequalities in the process of cascaded downconversion and sum-frequency generation inside an optical cavity. This has previously been predicted to be a potential source of continuous-variable tripartite entanglement, therefore we know that there are no separable bipartitions. In this work we investigate the performance of the chosen inequalities in the stable, below threshold regime. We show that detection of the existing entanglement is sensitive to the actual inequalities chosen, with some criteria missing it completely. Our results are explained by the fact that violation of the chosen inequalities is sufficient but not necessary to demonstrate the non-classical relationships between the modes, and highlights the outstanding problem of developing a reliable continuous-variable entanglement measure.
