We demonstrate how quantum entanglement can be directly witnessed in the quasi-1D Heisenberg antiferromagnet KCuF$_3$. We apply three entanglement witnesses --- one-tangle, two-tangle, and quantum Fisher information --- to its inelastic neutron spectrum, and compare with spectra simulated by finite-temperature density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) and classical Monte Carlo methods. We find that each witness provides direct access to entanglement. Of these, quantum Fisher information is the most robust experimentally, and indicates the presence of at least bipartite entanglement up to at least 50 K, corresponding to around 10% of the spinon zone-boundary energy. We apply quantum Fisher information to higher spin-S Heisenberg chains, and show theoretically that the witnessable entanglement gets suppressed to lower temperatures as the quantum number increases. Finally, we outline how these results can be applied to higher dimensional quantum materials to witness and quantify entanglement.

We consider a system of mutually interacting spin 1/2 embedded in a transverse magnetic field which undergo a second order quantum phase transition. We analyze the entanglement properties and the spin squeezing of the ground state and show that, cont rarily to the one-dimensional case, a cusp-like singularity appears at the critical point $lambda_c$, in the thermodynamic limit. We also show that there exists a value $lambda_0 geq lambda_c$ above which the ground state is not spin squeezed despite a nonvanishing concurrence.

In this paper we report results for magnetic observables of finite spin clusters composed of S=1/2 ions. We consider clusters of two, three and four spins in distinct spatial arrangements, with isotropic Heisenberg interactions of various strengths b etween ion pairs. In addition to the complete set of energy eigenvalues and eigenvectors, specific heat and magnetic susceptibility, we also quote results for the single crystal and powder average inelastic neutron scattering structure factors. Examples of the application of these results to experimental systems are also discussed.
We present a quantum algorithm to compute the entanglement spectrum of arbitrary quantum states. The interesting universal part of the entanglement spectrum is typically contained in the largest eigenvalues of the density matrix which can be obtained from the lower Renyi entropies through the Newton-Girard method. Obtaining the $p$ largest eigenvalues ($lambda_1>lambda_2ldots>lambda_p$) requires a parallel circuit depth of $mathcal{O}(p(lambda_1/lambda_p)^p)$ and $mathcal{O}(plog(N))$ qubits where up to $p$ copies of the quantum state defined on a Hilbert space of size $N$ are needed as the input. We validate this procedure for the entanglement spectrum of the topologically-ordered Laughlin wave function corresponding to the quantum Hall state at filling factor $ u=1/3$. Our scaling analysis exposes the tradeoffs between time and number of qubits for obtaining the entanglement spectrum in the thermodynamic limit using finite-size digital quantum computers. We also illustrate the utility of the second Renyi entropy in predicting a topological phase transition and in extracting the localization length in a many-body localized system.
Two dimensional layered van der Waals (vdW) magnets have demonstrated their potential to study both fundamental and applied physics due to their remarkable electronic properties. However, the connection of vdW magnets to spintronics as well as quantu m information science is not clear. In particular, it remains elusive whether there are novel magnetic phenomena only belonging to vdW magnets, but absent in the widely studied crystalline magnets. Here we consider the quantum correlations of magnons in a layered vdW magnet and identify an entanglement channel of magnons across the magnetic layers, which can be effectively tuned and even deterministically switched on and off by both magnetic and electric means. This is a unique feature of vdW magnets in which the underlying physics is well understood in terms of the competing roles of exchange and anisotropy fields that contribute to the magnon excitation. Furthermore, we show that such a tunable entanglement channel can mediate the electrically controllable entanglement of two distant qubits, which also provides a protocol to indirectly measure the entanglement of magnons. Our findings provide a novel avenue to electrically manipulate the qubits and further open up new opportunities to utilize vdW magnets for quantum information science.
Recently, there has been an increased interest in studying quantum entanglement and quantum coherence. Since both of these properties are attributed to the existence of quantum superposition, it would be useful to determine if some type of correlatio n between them exists. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to explore the type of the correlation in several systems with different types of anisotropy. The focus will be on the XY spin chains with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and the type of the mentioned bond will be explored using the quantum renormalization group method.
