Entanglement witnesses and the loophole-problem — •P. Skwara, H. Kampermann, and D. Bruß — Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf, Institut für theoretische Physik III

In analogy to loopholes in Bell-experiments we consider possible loopholes in experiments to measure entanglement witnesses, with special emphasis on the detector-efficiency-loophole[1]. We derive bounds for the detector-efficiency, which guarantees that a negative expectation value of the witness is due to entanglement, rather than to erroneous detectors. The decomposition of two-qubit witnesses into local measurements[2] is optimized with respect to the detector-efficiency. A generalization of this method to the case of two qudits is presented.
