Entanglement in single-particle systems
We address some of the most commonly raised questions about entanglement, especially with regard to the so-called occupation number entanglement. To answer unambiguously whether entanglement can exist in a one-atom delocalized state, we propose an experiment capable of showing violations of Bell’s inequality using only this state and local operations. We review previous discussions for one-phot...
متن کاملEntanglement Witnesses from Single-Particle Interference
We describe a general method of realizing entanglement witnesses in terms of the interference pattern of a single quantum probe. After outlining the principle, we discuss specific realizations both with electrons in mesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm rings and with photons in standard Young’s double-slit or coherent-backscattering interferometers. How much information can be gained about separate parts o...
متن کاملParticle partitioning entanglement in itinerant many-particle systems
For itinerant fermionic and bosonic systems, we study ‘particle entanglement’, defined as the entanglement between two subsets of particles making up the system. We formulate the general structure of particle entanglement in many-fermion ground states, analogous to the ‘area law’ for the more usually studied entanglement between spatial regions. Basic properties of particle entanglement are unc...

متن کاملQuantum teleportation and Bell’s inequality using single-particle entanglement
A single-particle entangled state can be generated by illuminating a beam splitter with a single photon. Quantum teleportation utilizing such a single-particle entangled state can be successfully achieved with a simple setup consisting only of linear optical devices such as beam splitters and phase shifters. Application of the locality assumption to a single-particle entangled state leads to Be...
