Super-Activation of Quantum Steering

Quantum Physics 2017-01-04 v1

Abstract

We consider Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering in the regime where the parties can perform collective measurements on many copies of a given shared entangled state. We derive a simple and efficient condition for guaranteeing that an entangled state is kk-copy steerable. In particular we show that any two-qubit and qubit-qutrit entangled states is kk-copy steerable. This allows us to discuss the effect of super-activation of steering, whereby an entangled state that is unsteerable (i.e., admits a local hidden state model) in the one-copy regime becomes kk-copy steerable. We provide examples with few copies and low dimensions. Our results give evidence that entanglement and steering could become equivalent in the multi-copy regime.
