Fraction of isospectral states exhibiting quantum correlations

Abstract

For several types of correlations: mixed-state entanglement in systems of distinguishable particles, particle entanglement in systems of indistinguishable bosons and fermions and non-Gaussian correlations in fermionic systems we estimate the fraction of non-correlated states among the density matrices with the same spectra. We prove that for the purity exceeding some critical value (depending on the considered problem) fraction of non-correlated states tends to zero exponentially fast with the dimension of the relevant Hilbert space. As a consequence a state randomly chosen from the set of density matrices possessing the same spectra is asymptotically a correlated one. To prove this we developed a systematic framework for detection of correlations via nonlinear witnesses.
