Measuring Entanglement by Exploiting its Anti-symmetric Nature

Abstract

Despite significant progress in experimental quantum sciences, measuring entanglement entropy remains challenging. Through a geometric perspective, we reveal the intrinsic anti-symmetric nature of entanglement. We prove that most entanglement measures, such as von Neumann and Renyi entropies, can be expressed in terms of exterior products, which are fundamentally anti-symmetric. Leveraging this, we propose utilizing the anti-symmetric nature of fermions to measure entanglement entropy efficiently, offering a resource-efficient approach to probing bipartite entanglement.
