Entropic entanglement criteria for continuous variables.

چکیده
We derive several entanglement criteria for bipartite continuous variable quantum systems based on the Shannon entropy. These criteria are more sensitive than those involving only second-order moments, and are equivalent to well-known variance product tests in the case of Gaussian states. Furthermore, they involve only a pair of quadrature measurements, and will thus prove extremely useful in the experimental identification of entanglement.

Detecting quantum entanglement
We review the criteria for separability and quantum entanglement, both in a bipartite as well as a multipartite setting. We discuss Bell inequalities, entanglement witnesses, entropic inequalities, bound entanglement and several features of multipartite entanglement. We indicate how these criteria bear on the experimental detection of quantum entanglement.
متن کاملPositive maps, majorization, entropic inequalities, and detection of entanglement
In this paper, we discuss some general connections between the notions of positive map, weak majorization and entropic inequalities in the context of detection of entanglement among bipartite quantum systems. First, basing on the fact that any positive map Λ : Md(C) → Md(C) can be written as the difference between two completely positive maps Λ = Λ1 − Λ2, we propose a possible way to generalize...
متن کاملSeparability conditions from entropic uncertainty relations
Separability is the property that distinguishes statistical ensembles that have a classical description from the ones that need a quantum description. As a matter of fact, the definition of entanglement is the formal negation of the separability condition [1]. In spite of this clear logical distinction between separable and entangled states, the borderline between these two sets is very difficu...
متن کاملEfficient entanglement criteria beyond Gaussian limits using Gaussian measurements.
We present a formalism to derive entanglement criteria beyond the Gaussian regime that can be readily tested by only homodyne detection. The measured observable is the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlation. Its arbitrary functional form enables us to detect non-Gaussian entanglement even when an entanglement test based on second-order moments fails. We illustrate the power of our experiment...
متن کاملExperimental investigation of criteria for continuous variable entanglement.
We generate a pair of entangled beams from the interference of two amplitude squeezed beams. The entanglement is quantified in terms of EPR paradox and inseparability criteria, with both results clearly beating the standard quantum limit. We experimentally analyze the effect of decoherence on each criterion and demonstrate qualitative differences. We also characterize the number of required and...
