Disentangling Theorem and Monogamy for Entanglement Negativity

Quantum Physics 2015-06-18 v2

Abstract

Entanglement negativity is a measure of mixed-state entanglement increasingly used to investigate and characterize emerging quantum many-body phenomena, including quantum criticality and topological order. We present two results for the entanglement negativity: a disentangling theorem, which allows the use of this entanglement measure as a means to detect whether a wave-function of three subsystems AA, BB, and CC factorizes into a product state for parts AB1AB_1 and B2CB_2C; and a monogamy relation, which states that if AA is very entangled with BB, then AA cannot be simultaneaously very entangled also with CC.
