Quantum steering ellipsoids, extremal physical states and monogamy

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
Any two-qubit state can be faithfully represented by a steering ellipsoid inside the Bloch sphere, but not every ellipsoid inside the Bloch sphere corresponds to a two-qubit state.

Deriving robust noncontextuality inequalities from algebraic proofs of the Kochen–Specker theorem: the Peres–Mermin square

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
When a measurement is compatible with each of two other measurements that are incompatible with one another, these define distinct contexts for the given measurement. The Kochen–Specker theorem rules out models of quantum theory that satisfy a particular

Entanglement and extreme spin squeezing of unpolarized states

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
We present criteria to detect the depth of entanglement in macroscopic ensembles of spin- j particles using the variance and second moments of the collective spin components.

Entanglement rate for Gaussian continuous variable beams

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
We derive a general expression that quantifies the total entanglement production rate in continuous variable systems, where a source emits two entangled Gaussian beams with arbitrary correlators.

Building versatile bipartite probes for quantum metrology

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
We consider bipartite systems as versatile probes for the estimation of transformations acting locally on one of the subsystems. We investigate what resources are required for the probes to offer a guaranteed level of metrological performance, when the ...

Thermodynamic cost of creating correlations

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We investigate the fundamental limitations imposed by thermodynamics for creating correlations. Considering a collection of initially uncorrelated thermal quantum systems, we ask how much classical and quantum correlations can be obtained via a cyclic ...

Measurement-induced nonlocality based on the trace norm

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Nonlocality is one unique property of quantum mechanics that differs from the classical world. One of its quantifications can be properly described as the maximum global effect caused by locally invariant measurements, known as measurement-induced ...

Bipartite Bell inequalities with three ternary-outcome measurements—from theory to experiments

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
We explore quantum nonlocality in one of the simplest bipartite scenarios. Several new facet-defining Bell inequalities for the $\{[3\;3\;3]\;[3\;3\;3]\}$ scenario are obtained with their quantum violations analyzed in details.

Reasonable fermionic quantum information theories require relativity

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
We show that any quantum information theory based on anticommuting operators must be supplemented by a superselection rule deeply rooted in relativity to establish a reasonable notion of entanglement.

Unlocking fermionic mode entanglement

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
Aside from other puzzling features of entanglement, it has been debated whether a physically meaningful notion of entanglement requires two (or more) particles as carriers of the correlated degrees-of-freedom, or if a single particle could be considered ...
