Geometric Measure of Entanglement and Schmidt Decomposition of Multipartite Systems

Abstract

The thesis includes the original results of our articles [30, 37, 40, 42, 51, 53, 75]. A method is developed to compute analytically entanglement measures of three-qubit pure states. Owing to it closed-form expressions are presented for the geometric measure of entanglement for three-qubit states that are linear combinations of four orthogonal product states. It turns out that the geometric measure for these states has three different expressions depending on the range of definition in parameter space and the Hilbert space of three-qubits consists of three different entangled regions. The states that lie on joint surfaces separating different entangled regions, designated as shared states, have particularly interesting features and are dual quantum channels for the perfect teleportation and superdense coding [42]. A powerful method is developed to compute analytically multipartite entanglement measures. The method uses the duality concept and creates a bijection between highly entangled quantum states and their nearest separable states. The bijection gives explicitly the geometric entanglement measure of arbitrary generalized W states of n qubits [30, 75]. Additionaly, the behavior of the geometric entanglement measure of many-qubit W states is analyzed and an interpolating formula is derived [51]. Generalized Schmidt decomposition of pure three-qubit states has four positive and one complex coefficients. In contrast to the bipartite case, they are not arbitrary and the largest Schmidt coefficient restricts severely other coefficients. It is derived a non-strict inequality between three-qubit Schmidt coefficients, where the largest coefficient defines the least upper bound for the three nondiagonal coefficients or, equivalently, the three nondiagonal coefficients together define the greatest lower bound for the largest coefficient [53].
