Multipartite Entanglement Witnesses

Multipartite entanglement witnesses.

We derive a set of algebraic equations, the so-called multipartite separability eigenvalue equations. Based on their solutions, we introduce a universal method for the construction of multipartite entanglement witnesses. We witness multipartite entanglement of 10(3) coupled quantum oscillators, by solving our basic equations analytically. This clearly demonstrates the feasibility of our method ...

Device-independent witnesses of genuine multipartite entanglement.

We consider the problem of determining whether genuine multipartite entanglement was produced in an experiment, without relying on a characterization of the systems observed or of the measurements performed. We present an n-partite inequality that is satisfied by all correlations produced by measurements on biseparable quantum states, but which can be violated by n-partite entangled states, suc...

Demonstration of genuine multipartite entanglement with device-independent witnesses

Entanglement in a quantum system can be demonstrated experimentally by performing the measurements prescribed by an appropriate entanglement witness. However, the unavoidable mismatch between the implementation of measurements in practical devices and their precise theoretical modelling generally results in the undesired possibility of false-positive entanglement detection. Such scenarios can b...

Title Genuine multipartite entanglement without multipartite correlations

Genuine Multipartite Entanglement without Multipartite Correlations.

Nonclassical correlations between measurement results make entanglement the essence of quantum physics and the main resource for quantum information applications. Surprisingly, there are n-particle states which do not exhibit n-partite correlations at all but still are genuinely n-partite entangled. We introduce a general construction principle for such states, implement them in a multiphoton e...
