Quantum entanglement of unitary operators on bi-partite systems

چکیده
Quantum entanglement plays a key role in quantum information theory. In recent years, there has been a lot of efforts to characterize the entanglement of quantum states both qualitatively and quantitatively. Entangled states can be generated from disentangled states by the action of a non-local Hamitonians. That means these Hamiltonians have the ability to entangle quantum states. It is therefore natural to investigate the entangling abilities of non-local Hamiltonians and the corresponding unitary evolution operators. The first steps along this direction have been performed [1,2] recently. In Ref. [1] it has been analyzed the entangling capabilities of unitary operators on a d1 × d2 systems and introduced an entangling power measure given by the mean linear entropy produced by acting with the unitary operator on a given distribution of product states. Dür et al. [2] investigated the entanglement capability of an arbitrary two-qubit non-local Hamiltonian and designed an optimal strategy for entanglement production. Cirac et al. [3] studied which physical operations acting on two spatially separated systems are capable of producing entanglement and shows how one can implement certain nonlocal operations if one shares a small amount of entanglement and is allowed to perform local operations and classical communications. The notion of entanglement of quantum evolutions e.g., unitary operators, has been introduced in Ref. [4] and there quantified by linear entropy [4]. As discussed in that paper, this notion arises in a very natural way once one recalls that unitary operators of a multipartite system belong to a multipartite state space as well, the socalled Hilbert-Schmidit space. It follow that one can lift all the notions developed for entanglement of quantum states to that of quantum evolutions. In this report we shall make a further step by studying the entanglement of a class of useful unitary operators e.g., quantum gates, on general i.e., d1 × d2 bipartite quantum systems.

On bound entanglement assisted distillation
We investigate asymptotic distillation of entanglement in the presence of an unlimited amount of bound entanglement for bi-partite systems. We show that the distillability is still bounded by the relative entropy of entanglement. This offers a strong support to the fact that bound entanglement does not improve distillation of entanglement. PACS number(s): 03.65.Bz, 89.70.+c,89.80.+h keywords: e...
متن کاملEntanglement of Grassmannian Coherent States for Multi-Partite n-Level Systems
In this paper, we investigate the entanglement of multi-partite Grassmannian coherent states (GCSs) described by Grassmann numbers for n > 2 degree of nilpotency. Choosing an appropriate weight function, we show that it is possible to construct some wellknown entangled pure states, consisting of GHZ, W, Bell, cluster type and bi-separable states, which are obtained by integrating over tensor pr...
متن کاملThe classical communication cost of entanglement manipulation: Is entanglement an inter-convertible resource?
Entanglement bits or “ebits” have been proposed as a quantitative measure of a fundamental resource in quantum information processing. For such an interpretation to be valid, it is important to show that the same number of ebits in different forms or concentrations are inter-convertible in the asymptotic limit. Here we draw attention to a very important but hitherto unnoticed aspect of entangle...

We study the entanglement properties of random pure stabilizer states in spin1 2 particles. We obtain a compact and exact expression for the probability distribution of the entanglement values across any bipartite cut. This allows for exact derivations of the average entanglement and the degree of concentration of measure around this average. We also give simple bounds on these quantities. We f...
