Maximum entanglement of formation for a two-mode Gaussian state over passive operations

Spyros Tserkis, Jayne E. Thompson, Austin P. Lund +4 more

We quantify the maximum amount of entanglement of formation (EoF) that can be achieved by continuous-variable states under passive operations, which we refer to as the EoF potential. Focusing, in particular, on two-mode Gaussian states we derive analytical expressions for the EoF potential for specific classes of states. For more general states, we demonstrate that this quantity can be upper bounded by the minimum amount of squeezing needed to synthesize the Gaussian modes, a quantity called squeezing of formation. Our work, thus, provides a link between nonclassicality of quantum states and the nonclassicality of correlations.

Entanglement of Formation for Quantum States

Hui Zhao, Zhi‐Xi Wang

We investigate the entanglement of formation for a class of high-dimensional quantum mixed states. We present a kind of generalized concurrence for a class of high-dimensional quantum pure states such that the entanglement of formation is a monotonically increasing convex function of the generalized concurrence. From the monotonicity and convexity the entanglement of formation for a class of high-dimensional mixed states has been calculated analytically.

Comparative analysis of entanglement measures based on monogamy inequality

P. J. Geetha, Sudha, K. S. Mallesh

We evaluate the monogamy inequality for symmetric, non-symmetric pure states of importance in terms of squared concurrence, squared entanglement of formation, squared negativity of partial transpose and compare the corresponding tangles. We show that though concurrence and concurrence tangle are zero for two special classes of mixed entangled states, both negativity tangle and entanglement of formation (EOF) tangle turn out to be non-zero. A comparison of different tangles is carried out in each case and it is shown that while the concurrence tangle captures the genuine multiqubit entanglement in N -qubit pure states with N distinct spinors (containing GHZ and superposition of W-, obverse W states) either negativity tangle or EOF tangle is to be used as a better measure of entanglement in the W-class of states with two distinct spinors and in the special classes of mixed multiqubit states.
