Entanglement witnesses and separability criteria based on generalized equiangular tight frames

Abstract In quantum information theory, measurements are represented by positive, operator-valued measures.

Description
Summary:Abstract In quantum information theory, measurements are represented by positive, operator-valued measures. In this paper, we use the operators corresponding to generalized equiangular measurements to construct positive maps. Their positivity follows from the properties of index of coincidence for few equiangular tight frames. These maps give rise to entanglement witnesses, which include as special cases many important classes considered in the literature. Additionally, we introduce separability criteria based on the correlation matrix and analyze them for various types of measurements.
