Concurrence of Arbitrary Dimensional Bipartite Quantum States

Abstract

We derive an analytical lower bound for the concurrence of a bipartite quantum state in arbitrary dimension. A functional relation is established relating concurrence, the Peres-Horodecki criterion, and the realignment criterion. We demonstrate that our bound is exact for some mixed quantum states. The significance of our method is illustrated by giving a quantitative evaluation of entanglement for many bound entangled states, some of which fail to be identified by the usual concurrence estimation method.

Lower bound on concurrence and distillation for arbitrary-dimensional bipartite quantum states

Ming‐Jing Zhao, Xue‐Na Zhu, Shao-Ming Fei +1 more

We present a lower bound of concurrence for arbitrary-dimensional bipartite quantum states. This lower bound may be used to improve all the known lower bounds of concurrence. Moreover, the lower bound gives rise to an operational sufficient criterion of distillability of quantum entanglement. The significance of our result is illustrated by quantitative evaluation of entanglement for entangled states that fail to be identified by the usual concurrence estimation method and by showing the distillability of mixed states that cannot be recognized by other distillability criteria.

Concurrence of Mixed Bipartite Quantum States in Arbitrary Dimensions

Florian Mintert, Marek Kuś, Andreas Buchleitner

We derive a lower bound for the concurrence of mixed bipartite quantum states, valid in arbitrary dimensions. As a corollary, a weaker, purely algebraic estimate is found, which detects mixed entangled states with a positive partial transpose.

A note on lower bounds of concurrence for arbitrary dimensional bipartite quantum states

Zhi-Bo Chen, Shao-Ming Fei

Abstract Quantification of quantum entanglement plays a crucial role in the study of quantum information tasks. We present analytical lower bounds for both concurrence and 2-concurrence based on the correlation matrices of bipartite quantum states. Compared with other related lower bounds, our approach provides a better estimation of the entanglement, particularly for states with large purity.

Estimating the concurrence for quantum states via symmetric measurements

Hao-Fan Wang, Wen Zhou, Lin Chen +1 more

Concurrence is one of the most well-known entanglement measures. We show that, for arbitrary bipartite states, the lower bound of concurrence induced by symmetric measurements is always tighter than the one obtain from realignment. Besides, we derive an extended version of lower bound of concurrence induced by symmetric measurements, which can also be experimentally identified without state tomography, and further present a corresponding lower bound of genuine tripartite entanglement concurrence.

Entanglement of Formation of Bipartite Quantum States

Kai Chen, Sergio A Albeverio, Shao-Ming Fei

We give an explicit tight lower bound for the entanglement of formation for arbitrary bipartite mixed states by using the convex hull construction of a certain function. This is achieved by revealing a novel connection among the entanglement of formation, the well-known Peres-Horodecki, and realignment criteria. The bound gives a quite simple and efficiently computable way to evaluate quantitatively the degree of entanglement for any bipartite quantum state.

Lower bound of concurrence based on positive maps

Xiaosheng Li, Xiu-Hong Gao, Shao-Ming Fei

We study the concurrence of arbitrary dimensional bipartite quantum systems. An explicit analytical lower bound of concurrence is obtained which detects entanglement for some quantum states better than some well-known separability criteria and improves the lower bounds, such as from the positive partial transposition, realignment criteria, and Breuer's entanglement witness.
