A general expression for the density matrix of the composite system of angular momenta j1and j2is obtained. In this matrix representation violations of the Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequalities are established for the X-states of a qubit-qubit, pure and mixed, composite system, as well as for a qubit-qutrit density matrix. In both cases maximal violation of the Bell inequalities can be reached, i.e., the Cirel’son limit. A correlation between the entanglement measure and a strong violation of the Bell factor is also given. For the qubit-qutrit composite system a time-dependent convex combination of the density matrix of the eigenstates of a two-particle Hamiltonian system is used to determine periodic maximal violations of the Bell’s inequality.展开更多

文摘The study on the entanglement polygon inequality of multipartite systems has attracted much attention.However,most of the results are on pure states.Here we consider the property for a class of mixed states,which are the reduced density matrices of generalizedW-class states in multipartite higher dimensional systems.First we show the class of mixed states satisfies the entanglement polygon inequalities in terms of Tsallis-q entanglement,then we propose a class of tighter inequalities for mixed states in terms of Tsallis-q entanglement.At last,we get an inequality for the mixed states,which can be regarded as a relation for bipartite entanglement.

文摘In this paper,we study a distributed model to cooperatively compute variational inequalities over time-varying directed graphs.Here,each agent has access to a part of the full mapping and holds a local view of the global set constraint.By virtue of an auxiliary vector to compensate the graph imbalance,we propose a consensus-based distributed projection algorithm relying on local computation and communication at each agent.We show the convergence of this algorithm over uniformly jointly strongly connected unbalanced digraphs with nonidentical local constraints.We also provide a numerical example to illustrate the effectiveness of our algorithm.
