Numerical detection of Gaussian entanglement and its application to the identification of bound entangled Gaussian states

Shan Ma, Shibei Xue, Yu Guo +1

We present a numerical method for solving the separability problem of Gaussian quantum states in continuous-variable quantum systems. We show that the separability problem can be c…

Preparation of bipartite bound entangled Gaussian states in quantum optics

Shan Ma, Matthew J. Woolley, Xiaojun Jia +1

The positivity of the partial transpose is in general only a necessary condition for separability. There exist quantum states that are not separable, but nevertheless are positive…

A Derivation of Moment Evolution Equations for Linear Open Quantum Systems

Shan Ma, Matthew J. Woolley, Ian R. Petersen

Given a linear open quantum system which is described by a Lindblad master equation, we detail the calculation of the moment evolution equations from this master equation. We stres…

Cascade and locally dissipative realizations of linear quantum systems for pure Gaussian state covariance assignment

Shan Ma, Matthew J. Woolley, Ian R. Petersen +1

This paper presents two realizations of linear quantum systems for covariance assignment corresponding to pure Gaussian states. The first one is called a cascade realization; given…

Linear quantum systems with diagonal passive Hamiltonian and a single dissipative channel

Shan Ma, Ian R. Petersen, Matthew J. Woolley

Given any covariance matrix corresponding to a so-called pure Gaussian state, a linear quantum system can be designed to achieve the assigned covariance matrix. In most cases, howe…
