متن کاملEntanglement Witnesses in Spin Models
We construct entanglement witnesses using fundamental quantum operators of spin models which contain two-particle interactions and have a certain symmetry. By choosing the Hamiltonian as such an operator, our method can be used for detecting entanglement by energy measurement. We apply this method to the Heisenberg model in a cubic lattice with a magnetic field, the XY model and other familiar ...
