Inseparability Criterion Using Higher-Order Schrödinger-Robertson Uncertainty Relation

We formulate an inseparability criterion based on the recently derived generalized Schrödinger-Robertson uncertainty relation (SRUR) [Ivan {\it et al.} J. Phys. A :Math. Theor. {\bf 45}, 195305 (2012)] together with the negativity of partial transpose (PT). This generalized SRUR systematically deals with two orthogonal quadrature amplitudes to higher-orders, so is relevant to characterize non-Gaussian quantum statistics. We first present a method that relies on the single-mode marginal distribution of two-mode fields under PT followed by beam-splitting operation. We then extend the SRUR to two-mode cases and develop a full two-mode version of inseparability criterion. We find that our formulation can be useful to detect entanglement of non-Gaussian states even when, e.g., the entropic criterion that also involves higher-order moments fails.
