We show that spin squeezing criteria commonly used for entanglement detection can be erroneous, if the probe is not symmetric. We then derive a lower bound on squeezing for separable states in spin systems probed asymmetrically. Using this we further develop a procedure that allows us to verify the degree of entanglement of a quantum state in the spin system. Finally, we apply our method for entanglement verification to existing experimental data, and use it to prove the existence of tri-partite entanglement in a spin squeezed atomic ensemble.

We give an introduction to the theory of multi-partite entanglement. We begin by describing the coordinate system of the field: Are we dealing with pure or mixed states, with single or multiple copies, what notion of locality is being used, do we aim to classify states according to their type of entanglement or to quantify it? Building on the general theory of multi-partite entanglement - to the extent that it has been achieved - we turn to explaining important classes of multi-partite entangled states, including matrix product states, stabilizer and graph states, bosonic and fermionic Gaussian states, addressing applications in condensed matter theory. We end with a brief discussion of various applications that rely on multi-partite entangled states: quantum networks, measurement-based quantum computing, non-locality, and quantum metrology.
The Mermin inequality provides a criterion for experimentally ruling out local-realistic descriptions of multiparticle systems. A violation of this inequality means that the particles must be entangled, but does not, in general, indicate whether N-partite entanglement is present. For this, a stricter bound is required. Here we discuss this bound and use it to propose two different schemes for demonstrating N-partite entanglement with atoms. The first scheme involves Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in an optical lattice and the second uses Rydberg atoms in microwave cavities.
We investigate genuinely entangled $N$-qubit states with no $N$-partite correlations in the case of symmetric states. Using a tensor representation for mixed symmetric states, we obtain a simple characterization of the absence of $N$-partite correlations. We show that symmetric states with no $N$-partite correlations cannot exist for an even number of qubits. We fully identify the set of genuinely entangled symmetric states with no $N$-partite correlations in the case of three qubits, and in the case of rank-2 states. We present a general procedure to construct families for an arbitrary odd number of qubits.
We present a technique to diagnose the condensate fraction in a one-dimensional optical lattice of weakly interacting bosons based on the dynamics of the trapped atoms under the influence of a momentum kick. It is shown using the Multi-Configuration Time Dependent Hartree method for Bosons (MCTDHB) that the two extreme cases of the superfluid and Mott insulator states exhibit different behaviors when the lattice is briefly tilted. The current induced by the momentum boost caused by the tilt which depends directly on the amount of phase coherence between the lattice sites is linearly proportional to the condensate fraction. The atom-atom interactions only change the slope of the linear relationship. We discuss the applications of this scheme in magnetic field gradiometery.
Quantum spins of mesoscopic size are a well-studied playground for engineering non-classical states. If the spin represents the collective state of an ensemble of qubits, its non-classical behavior is linked to entanglement between the qubits. In this work, we report on an experimental study of entanglement in dysprosiums electronic spin. Its ground state, of angular momentum $J=8$, can formally be viewed as a set of $2J$ qubits symmetric upon exchange. To access entanglement properties, we partition the spin by optically coupling it to an excited state $J=J-1$, which removes a pair of qubits in a state defined by the light polarization. Starting with the well-known W and squeezed states, we extract the concurrence of qubit pairs, which quantifies their non-classical character. We also directly demonstrate entanglement between the 14- and 2-qubit subsystems via an increase in entropy upon partition. In a complementary set of experiments, we probe decoherence of a state prepared in the excited level $J=J+1$ and interpret spontaneous emission as a loss of a qubit pair in a random state. This allows us to contrast the robustness of pairwise entanglement of the W state with the fragility of the coherence involved in a Schrodinger cat state. Our findings open up the possibility to engineer novel types of entangled atomic ensembles, in which entanglement occurs within each atoms electronic spin as well as between different atoms.
