Reduction of multipartite qubit density matrixes to bipartite qubit density matrixes and criteria of partial separability of multipartite qubit density matrixes

Abstract

The partial separability of multipartite qubit density matrixes is strictly defined. We give a reduction way from N-partite qubit density matrixes to bipartite qubit density matrixes, and prove a necessary condition that a N-partite qubit density matrix to be partially separable is its reduced density matrix to satisfy PPT condition.

CRITERIA OF PARTIAL SEPARABILITY OF MULTIPARTITE QUBIT MIXED STATES

Zai-Zhe Zhong

We discuss the partial separability and its criteria problems of multipartite qubit mixed states. First, we strictly define what is the partial separability of a multipartite qubit system. Next, we provide a way of reduction from N-partite qubit density matrixes to bipartite qubit density matrixes, and prove a necessary condition that an N-partite qubit mixed state to be partially separable is its reduction to satisfy the PPT condition.

New criteria of separability for tripartite and more high dimensional multipartite qubit density matrixes

Zai-Zhe Zhong

In this Letter we find the new criteria of separability of multipartite qubit density matrixes. Especially, we discuss in detail the criteria of separability for tripartite qubit density matrixes. We find the sufficient and necessary conditions of separability for tripartite qubit density matrixes, and give two corollaries. The second corollary can be taken as the criterion of existence of entanglement for tripartite qubit density matrixes. In concrete application, its steps are quite simple and easy to operate. Some examples, discussions and the generalization to more high dimensional multipartite qubit density matrixes are given.

Partially separable criterion and classification of states in multipartite systems with an arbitrary finite number of qubits

An Min Wang

After introducing the partially separable concept, we proved the equivalence between the partial separability of a given $m$-partite subsystem with $m$ qubits and the purity of states of this $m$-partite subsystem for a pure state in multipartite systems with arbitrary finite $n(>m)$ qubits. Furthermore, we give out the operational realizations (corollaries) of our theorem, which are the sufficient and necessary criterions of partial separability of states and can be used to classification of states. Our results are helpful to understand and describe quantum entanglement in multipartite systems.

The distillability of entanglement of bipartite reduced density matrices of a tripartite state

Yize Sun, Lin Chen

Abstract The relation between the distillability of entanglement of three bipartite reduced density matrices from a tripartite pure state has been studied in Hayashi and Chen [2011 Phys. Rev. A 84 012325]. We extend this result to the tripartite mixed state of rank at most three. In particular we show that if the state has two bipartite reduced density operators with rank two, then the third bipartite reduced density operator additionally having non positive partial transpose (non-PPT) is distillable. In contrast, we show that the tripartite PPT state with two reduced density operators of rank two is a three-qubit fully separable state. We obtain these facts by proving a conjectured matrix inequality for the bipartite matrix M with Schmidt rank at most three. This is one of the main results of this paper. We also prove it for some M with arbitrary Schmidt rank.

Quantum separability criteria for arbitrary-dimensional multipartite states

Ming Li, Jing Wang, Shao-Ming Fei +1 more

We present separability criteria for both bipartite and multipartite quantum states. These criteria include the criteria based on the correlation matrix and its generalized form as special cases. We show by detailed examples that our criteria are more powerful than the positive partial transposition criterion, the realignment criterion, and the criteria based on the correlation matrices.

Separability and classification of multipartite quantum states

Pan-Wen Ma, Hui Zhao, Naihuan Jing

Abstract We study separability in arbitrary multipartite quantum systems based on principal base matrices. Necessary conditions are presented for different kinds of separable states. These conditions can give a complete classification of multipartite quantum states. While the usual Bloch representation of a density matrix uses three types of generators, the representation with principal base matrices has one uniform type of generator which simplifies computation. In this paper, we take advantage of this simplicity to derive useful and operational criteria to detect multipartite separability. We first obtain criteria on detecting 1 − 3 separable, 2 − 2 separable, 1 − 1 − 2 separable and fully separable four-partite quantum states. We then study k-separability for multipartite quantum states in arbitrary dimensions. Detailed examples are given to show that our criteria are able to detect more entanglement states than some existing criteria.
