• Abstract summary: We study the differences in detection power between real and complex entanglement witnesses (EWs) We show that a real EW must detect a real entangled state, and conversely a real entangled state must be detected by a real EW. We conjecture that all entangled states are detected by the EWs locally equivalent to real ones.

• Abstract: Since the birth of quantum theory, it has been controversial that whether real numbers are adequate to describe its formalism. Recently, the imaginary unit $i$ has been experimentally proven to be indispensable for quantum mechanics. It motivates us to study the differences in detection power between real and complex entanglement witnesses (EWs), and analyze the detection power of real EWs under local equivalences. We show that a real EW must detect a real entangled state, and conversely a real entangled state must be detected by a real EW. We present a necessary and sufficient condition for the entangled states detected by real EWs, and give a specific example which implies the detection limitations of real EWs. Then, we conjecture that all entangled states are detected by the EWs locally equivalent to real ones. We prove the conjecture for all states with non-positive partial transpose. We also derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the complex PPT (positive-partial-transpose) entangled states detected by the EWs locally equivalent to real ones. We further prove the conjecture for a family of two-quqart PPT entangled states. Another way to figure out the conjecture is to check whether a counterexample exists. We propose an equivalent method to examine the existence of a counterexample from a set-theoretic perspective, and provide some supporting evidence of non-existence. Finally, we derive some results on local projections of EWs with product projectors.

  For general bipartite mixed states, a sufficient and necessary mathematical condition for certifying entanglement and/or (Bell) non-locality remains unknown. We derive very simple, handy criteria for detecting entanglement or non-locality in many cases. We illustrate these results by analyzing the potential detection of entanglement and nonlocality in Higgs to ZZ decays at the LHC.

This is a substantial improvement over other detection methods, requiring significantly fewer resources than either full quantum state tomography or measuring a complete set of $d+1$ MUBs.
