A New Method of Classification of Pure Tripartite Quantum States

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

The classification of the multipartite entanglement is an important problem in quantum information theory. We propose a class of two qubit mixed states σAB=p∣χ1⟩⟨χ1∣⊗ρ1+(1−p)∣χ2⟩⟨χ2∣⊗ρ2σ_{AB}= p|χ_{1}\rangle\langleχ_{1}|\otimesρ_{1}+(1-p)|χ_{2}\rangle\langleχ_{2}|\otimesρ_{2}, where ∣χ1⟩=α∣0⟩+β∣1⟩|χ_{1}\rangle=α|0\rangle+β|1\rangle, ∣χ2⟩=β∣0⟩+(−1)nα∣1⟩|χ_{2}\rangle=β|0\rangle+(-1)^{n}α|1\rangle. We have shown that the state σABσ_{AB} represent a classical state when nn is odd while it represent a non-classical state when nn is even. The purification of the state σABσ_{AB} is studied and found that the purification is possible if the spectral decomposition of the density matrices ρ1ρ_{1} and ρ2ρ_{2} represent pure states. We have established a relationship between three tangle, which measures the amount of entanglement in three qubit system and the quantity ⟨χ1∣χ2⟩\langleχ_{1}|χ_{2}\rangle, which identifies whether the two qubit mixed state is classical or non-classical. The three qubit purified state is then classified as a separable or biseparable or W-type or GHZ-type state using the quantum correlation, measured by geometric discord, of its reduced two qubit density matrix.
