Separability Criteria from Uncertainty Relations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We explain several separability criteria which rely on uncertainty relations. For the derivation of these criteria uncertainty relations in terms of variances or entropies can be used. We investigate the strength of the separability conditions for the case of two qubits and show how they can improve entanglement witnesses.

Separability 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 کاملWhen Non-Gaussian States are Gaussian: Generalization of Non-Separability Criterion for Continuous Variables
Whether a quantum state is entangled or not represents a very important question in quantum-information theory. Such knowledge reveals whether one can take advantage of the non-local properties of the state in quantum protocols such as quantum teleportation [1] and quantum cryptography [2]. This issue has been dealt with by many authors in recent years primarily in qubit systems where the Peres...
متن کاملSeparability conditions from the Landau-Pollak uncertainty relation
We obtain a collection of necessary ssufficientd conditions for a bipartite system of qubits to be separable sentangledd, which are based on the Landau-Pollak formulation of the uncertainty principle. These conditions are tested and compared with previously stated criteria by applying them to states whose separability limits are already known. Our results are also extended to multipartite and h...
متن کاملMultimode uncertainty relations and separability of continuous variable states.
A multimode uncertainty relation (generalizing the Robertson-Schrödinger relation) is derived as a necessary constraint on the second moments of n pairs of canonical operators. In turn, necessary conditions for the separability of multimode continuous variable states under (m+n)-mode bipartitions are derived from the uncertainty relation. These conditions are proven to be necessary and sufficie...
متن کاملA Note on Normal Forms of Quantum States and Separability
We study the normal form of multipartite density matrices. It is shown that the correlation matrix (CM) separability criterion can be improved from the normal form we obtained under filtering transformations. Based on CM criterion the entanglement witness is further constructed in terms of local orthogonal observables for both bipartite and multipartite systems. PACS numbers: 03.67.-a, 02.20.Hj...
