Invariance of quantum correlations under local channel for a bipartite quantum state

We show that the quantum discord and the measurement induced non-locality (MiN) in a bipartite quantum state is invariant under the action of a local quantum channel if and only if the channel is invertible. In particular, these quantities are invariant under a local unitary channel.Comment: 4 pages, no figures, proof of theorm 2 modifie

Measurement-Induced Nonlocality in an nn-partite quantum state

We generalize the concept of measurement-induced non-locality (MiN) to $n$-partite quantum states. We get exact analytical expressions for MiN in an $n$-partite pure and $n$-qubit mixed state. We obtain the conditions under which MiN equals geometric quantum discord in an $n$-partite pure state and an $n$-qubit mixed state.Comment: 8 pages, four figures, introduction is modified, summary and comments adde

Entanglement Capacity of Nonlocal Hamiltonians : A Geometric Approach

We develop a geometric approach to quantify the capability of creating entanglement for a general physical interaction acting on two qubits. We use the entanglement measure proposed by us for $N$-qubit pure states (PRA \textbf{77}, 062334 (2008)). Our procedure reproduces the earlier results (PRL \textbf{87}, 137901 (2001)). The geometric method has the distinct advantage that it gives an experimental way to monitor the process of optimizing entanglement production.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figure
