    Superactivation of monogamy relations for nonadditive quantum correlation measures

    Full text link
    We investigate the general monogamy and polygamy relations satisfied by quantum correlation measures. We show that there exist two real numbers α\alpha and β\beta such that for any quantum correlation measure QQ, QxQ^x is monogamous if xαx\geq \alpha and polygamous if 0xβ0\leq x\leq \beta for a given multipartite state ρ\rho. For β<x<α\beta <x<\alpha, we show that the monogamy relation can be superactivated by finite mm copies ρm\rho^{\otimes m} of ρ\rho for nonadditive correlation measures. As a detailed example, we use the negativity as the quantum correlation measure to illustrate such superactivation of monogamy properties. A tighter monogamy relation is presented at last

    Monogamy relations of all quantum correlation measures for multipartite quantum systems

    Full text link
    The monogamy relations of quantum correlation restrict the sharability of quantum correlations in multipartite quantum states. We show that all measures of quantum correlations satisfy some kind of monogamy relations for arbitrary multipartite quantum states. Moreover, by introducing residual quantum correlations, we present tighter monogamy inequalities that are better than all the existing ones. In particular, for multi-qubit pure states, we also establish new monogamous relations based on the concurrence and concurrence of assistance under the partition of the first two qubits and the remaining ones.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1206.4029 by other author

    Polygamy relations of multipartite entanglement beyond qubits

    Full text link
    We investigate the polygamy relations related to the concurrence of assistance for any multipartite pure states. General polygamy inequalities given by the α\alphath (0α2)(0\leq \alpha\leq 2) power of concurrence of assistance is first presented for multipartite pure states in arbitrary-dimensional quantum systems. We further show that the general polygamy inequalities can even be improved to be tighter inequalities under certain conditions on the assisted entanglement of bipartite subsystems. Based on the improved polygamy relations, lower bound for distribution of bipartite entanglement is provided in a multipartite system. Moreover, the β\betath (0β10\leq \beta \leq 1) power of polygamy inequalities are obtained for the entanglement of assistance as a by-product, which are shown to be tighter than the existing ones. A detailed example is presented.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1902.0744

    Quantifying quantum coherence and non-classical correlation based on Hellinger distance

    Full text link
    Quantum coherence and non-classical correlation are key features of quantum world. Quantifying coherence and non-classical correlation are two key tasks in quantum information theory. First, we present a bona fide measure of quantum coherence by utilizing the Hellinger distance. This coherence measure is proven to fulfill all the criteria of a well defined coherence measure, including the strong monotonicity in the resource theories of quantum coherence. In terms of this coherence measure, the distribution of quantum coherence in multipartite systems is studied and a corresponding polygamy relation is proposed. Its operational meanings and the relations between the generation of quantum correlations and the coherence are also investigated. Moreover, we present Hellinger distance-based measure of non-classical correlation, which not only inherits the nice properties of the Hellinger distance including contractivity, and but also shows a powerful analytic computability for a large class of quantum states. We show that there is an explicit trade-off relation satisfied by the quantum coherence and this non-classical correlation

    Finer Distribution of Quantum Correlations among Multiqubit Systems

    Full text link
    We study the distribution of quantum correlations characterized by monogamy relations in multipartite systems. By using the Hamming weight of the binary vectors associated with the subsystems, we establish a class of monogamy inequalities for multiqubit entanglement based on the α\alphath (α2\alpha\geq 2) power of concurrence, and a class of polygamy inequalities for multiqubit entanglement in terms of the β\betath (0β20\leq \beta\leq2) power of concurrence and concurrence of assistance. Moveover, we give the monogamy and polygamy inequalities for general quantum correlations. Application of these results to quantum correlations like squared convex-roof extended negativity (SCREN), entanglement of formation and Tsallis-qq entanglement gives rise to either tighter inequalities than the existing ones for some classes of quantum states or less restrictions on the quantum states. Detailed examples are presented

    Multiple Fermi pockets revealed by Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in WTe2

    We use magneto-transport measurements to investigate the electronic structure of WTe2 single crystals. A non-saturating and parabolic magnetoresistance is observed in the temperature range between 2.5 to 200 K and magnetic fields up to 8 T. Shubnikov - de Haas oscillations with beating patterns are observed. The fast Fourier transform of the SdH oscillations reveals three oscillation frequencies, corresponding to three pairs of Fermi pockets with comparable effective masses , m* ~ 0.31 me. By fitting the Hall resistivity, we infer the presence of one pair of electron pockets and two pairs of hole pockets, together with nearly perfect compensation of the electron-hole carrier concentration. These magnetotransport measurements reveal the complex electronic structure in WTe2, explaining the nonsaturating magnetoresistance.Comment: Submitted to journal on 1 April, 2015, 4 Figure
