• Abstract: Quantum steering is a recently-defined form of quantum correlation which lies at the heart of quantum mechanics. In difference from other types of quantum correlations, quantum steering is inherently asymmetric, which implies that it could manifest in one direction but not in the opposite direction. This rather peculiar phenomenon, known as one-way steering, have been demonstrated in several experiments, but subtlety remains. In fact all experiments were shown to be ambiguous until a very recent conclusive one, which however made a crucial use of a high dimensional embedding to get around assumptions. This leaves the question open whether the one-way steering phenomenon can be reliably demonstrated in the genuine two-qubit system. Here, we report such an experimental demonstration of one-way steering for a family of two-qubit states. Our experimental setup and results thus resolve the subtlety caused by fidelity assumption in previous experiments without the need of higher dimensional embedding. Moreover, our work provides a universal method to characterize one-way steering phenomenon for generic two-qubit states.

• Manipulating the direction of one-way steering in an optomechanical ring cavity [0.0]
  Quantum steering refers to the apparent possibility of exploiting nonseparable quantum correlations to remotely influence the quantum state of an observer via local measurements. Here, we study Gaussian quantum steering between two mechanical modes in an optomechanical ring cavity. We show that the state of the two considered modes can exhibit two-way steering and even one-way steering.

We use entropic uncertainty relations for bipartite systems to derive measurable lower bounds on distillable entanglement.

• Genuine high-dimensional quantum steering [0.0]
  We formalise and experimentally demonstrate a notion of genuine high-dimensional quantum steering. We show that high-dimensional entanglement, as quantified by the Schmidt number, can lead to a stronger form of steering. We report the experimental violation of these inequalities using macro-pixel photon-pair entanglement certifying genuine high-dimensional steering.

  In the quantum Zeno effect, quantum measurements can block the coherent oscillation of a two level system by freezing its state to one of the measurement eigenstates. We show that the onset of the Zeno regime is marked by a $textitcascade of transitions$ in the system dynamics as the measurement strength is increased.
