Entanglement in systems of indistinguishable fermions

Canonical entanglement for two indistinguishable particles

We determine the degree of entanglement for two indistinguishable particles based on the tensor product structure, which is a framework for emphasizing entanglement founded on observational quantities. Our theory connects the canonical entanglement and entanglement based on occupation number for two fermions and for two bosons and shows that the entanglement measure, based on linear entropy, is...

Distilling Entanglement from Fermions

Since Fermions are based on anti-commutation relations, their entanglement can not be studied in the usual way, such that the available theory has to be modified appropriately. Recent publications consider in particular the structure of separable and of maximally entangled states. In this talk we want to discuss local operations and entanglement distillation from bipartite, Fermionic systems. T...

Entanglement distillation from quasifree fermions

We develop a scheme to distill entanglement from bipartite Fermionic systems in an arbitrary quasifree state. It can be applied if either one system containing infinite one-copy entanglement is available or if an arbitrary amount of equally prepared systems can be used. We show that the efficiency of the proposed scheme is in general very good and in some cases even optimal. Furthermore we appl...

Bogoliubov Transformations and Entanglement of Two Fermions

We show that Bogoliubov transformations, widely used in quantum field theory, can be also useful in quantum information theory. Namely, we show that the problem of the choice of tensor product decomposition in the system of two fermions can be analysed with the help of Bogoliubov transformations of creation and annihilation operators.
