Exact Bures probabilities that two quantum bits are classically correlated
@article{Slater1999ExactBP, title={Exact Bures probabilities that two quantum bits are classically correlated}, author={Paul B. Slater}, journal={The European Physical Journal B - Condensed Matter and Complex Systems}, year={1999}, volume={17}, pages={471-480} }
Abstract:In previous studies, we have explored the ansatz that the volume elements of the Bures metrics over quantum systems might serve as prior distributions, in analogy with the (classical) Bayesian role of the volume elements (“Jeffreys' priors”) of Fisher information metrics. Continuing this work, we obtain exact Bures prior probabilities that the members of certain low-dimensional subsets of the fifteen-dimensional convex set of density matrices are separable or classically correlated…

A priori Probability That Two Qubits Are Unentangled
- MathematicsQuantum Inf. Process.
- 2002
Here, making use of a newly-developed (Euler angle) parameterization of the 4 × 4 density matrices of Tilma, Byrd and Sudarshan, the analysis is extended to the complete 15-dimensional convex set (C) of arbitrarily paired qubits and conjecture that this is but an approximation to the exact Bures/SD probability of separability.
A priori probability that a qubit–qutrit pair is separable
- Physics, Mathematics

We extend to arbitrarily coupled pairs of qubits (two-state quantum systems) and qutrits (three-state quantum systems) our earlier study (Slater 2002 Quantum Inf. Process. 1 387), which was concerned…

Geometric approach to the distribution of quantum states in bipartite physical systems

Any set of pure states living in a given Hilbert space possesses a natural and unique metric—the Haar measure—on the group U(N) of unitary matrices. However, there is no specific measure induced on…

Advances in delimiting the Hilbert–Schmidt separability probability of real two-qubit systems

We seek to derive the probability—expressed in terms of the Hilbert–Schmidt (Euclidean or flat) metric—that a generic (nine-dimensional) real two-qubit system is separable, by implementing the…
Ratios of maximal concurrence-parameterized separability functions, and generalized Peres–Horodecki conditions
- Mathematics

The probability that a generic real, complex or quaternionic two-qubit state is separable can be considered to be the sum of three contributions. One is from those states that are absolutely…

It is proved that one of two mixed states can be transformed into the other by single-qubit operations if and only if these states have equal values of all 18 invariants, which provides a complete description of nonlocal properties.
