On the covariance matrix for Gaussian states

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show the explicit expression for the covariance matrix of general Gaussian states in terms of the symplectic group matrices. We discuss how the criteria to characterize squeezing and entanglement using the covariance matrix give rise to new criteria in the symplectic matrix elements used to construct the general Gaussian states.
