• Abstract: The notion of partial trace of a density operator is essential for the understanding of the entanglement and separability properties of quantum states. In this paper we investigate these notions putting an emphasis on the geometrical properties of the covariance ellipsoids of the reduced states. We thereafter focus on Gaussian states and we give new and easily numerically implementable sufficient conditions for the separability of all Gaussian states. Unlike the positive partial transposition criterion, none of these conditions is however necessary.

  Local unitary equivalence is an ingredient for quantifying and classifying entanglement. We find a variety of local unitary invariants for arbitrary-dimensional bipartite quantum states. We apply these invariants to estimate concurrence, a vital entanglement measure.

  We theoretically derive the probability densities of the entanglement measures of a pure non-ergodic many-body state. Our results indicate significant fluctuations of the measures around their average behavior. The information is relevant not only for hierarchical arrangement of entangled states but also for phase transition studies of many body systems.

• Quantifying nonclassicality and entanglement of Gaussian states [6.181008505226926]
  The robustness of nonclassicality or entanglement is demonstrated analytically for one-mode, two-mode Gaussain states and multimode symmetric Gaussian states. For squeezed thermal states, the nonclassicality is equal to the entanglement for the two-mode case, while they are far apart for multimode cases.

  We analyze the entanglement properties of bipartite reduced states of a tripartite pure state. We show that this ratio takes well-defined values in the thermodynamic limit for various families of entangled states. Our results can be used to experimentally test necessary conditions for different types of mixed-state randomness.

We also consider the generation of cat states from photon-added and photon-subtracted squeezed states, improving over known schemes by introducing additional squeezing operations.

• Stochastic approximate state conversion for entanglement and general quantum resource theories [41.94295877935867]
  An important problem in any quantum resource theory is to determine how quantum states can be converted into each other. Very few results have been presented on the intermediate regime between probabilistic and approximate transformations. We show that these bounds imply an upper bound on the rates for various classes of states under probabilistic transformations. We also show that the deterministic version of the single copy bounds can be applied for drawing limitations on the manipulation of quantum channels.

The method is based on notions of descent gradient attuned to the local geometry. We use the presented methods to collect numerical and analytical evidence for the conjecture that Gaussian purifications are sufficient to compute the entanglement of purification of arbitrary mixed Gaussian states.
