Abstract
The efficient experimental verification of entanglement requires an identification of the essential physical properties that distinguish entangled states from non-entangled states. Since the most characteristic feature of entanglement is the extreme precision of correlations between spatially separated systems, we propose a quantitative criterion based on local uncertainty relations (quant-ph/0212090). Some basic sum uncertainty relations for N-level systems are introduced and the amount of entanglement that can be verified by violations of the corresponding local uncertainty limit is discussed.
