Entanglement is a key resource for quantum information processing. A widely used tool for detecting entanglement is entanglement witness, where the measurement of the witness operator is guaranteed to be positive for all separable states and can be negative for certain entangled states. In reality, due to the exponentially increasing the Hilbert-space dimension with respective to the system size, it is very challenging to construct an efficient entanglement witness for general multipartite entangled states. For $N$-partite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)-like states, the most robust witness scheme requires $N+1$ local measurement settings and can tolerate up to $1/2$ white noise. As a comparison, the most efficient witness for GHZ-like states only needs two local measurement settings and can tolerate up to $1/3$ white noise. There is a trade-off between the realization efficiency, the number of measurement settings, and the detection robustness, the maximally tolerable white noise. In this work, we study this trade-off by proposing a family of entanglement witnesses with $k$ ($2le kle N+1$) local measurement settings. Considering symmetric local measurements, we calculate the maximal tolerable noise for any given number of measurement settings. Consequently, we design the optimal witness with a minimal number of settings for any given level of white noise. Our theoretical analysis can be applied to other multipartite entangled states with a strong symmetry. Our witnesses can be easily implemented in experiment and applied in practical multipartite entanglement detection under different noise conditions.
The $N$-qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states are the maximally entangled states of $N$ qubits, which have had many important applications in quantum information processing, such as quantum key distribution and quantum secret sharing. Thus h
We propose a resource-efficient error-rejecting entangled-state analyzer for polarization-encoded multiphoton systems. Our analyzer is based on two single-photon quantum-nondemolition detectors, where each of them is implemented with a four-level emi
We propose a probabilistic quantum cloning scheme using Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states, Bell basis measurements, single-qubit unitary operations and generalized measurements, all of which are within the reach of current technology. Compared to an
The hierarchy of nonlocality and entanglement in multipartite systems is one of the fundamental problems in quantum physics. Existing studies on this topic to date were limited to the entanglement classification according to the numbers of particles
The Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) argument against noncontextual local hidden variables is recast in quantum logical terms of fundamental propositions and probabilities. Unlike Kochen-Specker- and Hardy-like configurations, this operator based ar
