Sumario:Entanglement polytopes: An effective way to distinguish entanglement types An experiment-friendly method has been proposed to detect the entanglement type of multi-particle states. The way of characterizing entanglement types is a central question in studying entanglement. Entanglement polytopes serve as an elegant method to solve this issue by using the information of single particles alone, namely their local spectra. However, classifying states via entanglement polytopes is limited due to the large overlap of different polytopes. Here an international group of scientists proposed to use SLOCC (stochastic local operation and classical communication operations to overcome this difficulty. They experimentally detected the entanglement polytopes for two four-qubit states having the same local spectra by using SLOCC operations to move them to a non-overlapping region. Their method sheds light on experimental detection of entanglement in a general way.
