Free versus bound entanglement, a NP-hard problem tackled by machine learning
Abstract Entanglement detection in high dimensional systems is a NP-hard problem since it is lacking an efficient way. Given a bipartite quantum state of interest free entanglement can be detected efficiently by the PPT-criterion (Peres-Horodecki criterion), in contrast to detecting bound entangleme...

Abstract Entanglement detection in high dimensional systems is a NP-hard problem since it is lacking an efficient way. Given a bipartite quantum state of interest free entanglement can be detected efficiently by the PPT-criterion (Peres-Horodecki criterion), in contrast to detecting bound entanglement, i.e. a curious form of entanglement that can also not be distilled into maximally (free) entangled states. Only a few bound entangled states have been found, typically by constructing dedicated entanglement witnesses, so naturally the question arises how large is the volume of those states. We define a large family of magically symmetric states of bipartite qutrits for which we find $$82\%$$ 82 % to be free entangled, $$2\%$$ 2 % to be certainly separable and as much as $$10\%$$ 10 % to be bound entangled, which shows that this kind of entanglement is not rare. Via various machine learning algorithms we can confirm that the remaining $$6\%$$ 6 % of states are more likely to belonging to the set of separable states than bound entangled states. Most important we find via dimension reduction algorithms that there is a strong two-dimensional (linear) sub-structure in the set of bound entangled states. This revealed structure opens a novel path to find and characterize bound entanglement towards solving the long-standing problem of what the existence of bound entanglement is implying. |
