Detecting entanglement with Jarzynski's equality

Abstract:
We present a method for detecting the entanglement of a state using nonequilibrium processes. A comparison of relative entropies allows us to construct an entanglement witness. The relative entropy can further be related to the quantum Jarzynski equality, allowing nonequilibrium work to be used in entanglement detection. To exemplify our results, we consider two different spin chains. © 2010 The American Physical Society.
