Classical model for measurements of an entanglement witness

We describe a classical model that may serve as an analog for joint and local measurements of an entanglement witness. The analogous experimental procedure and data analysis protocol of the model follow those of a previous experiment to measure an entanglement witness with polarized photons prepared in a mixed state [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{91}, 227901 (2003)]. Numerical simulations show excellent agreement with both experimental results and quantum-mechanical predictions. This agreement is made possible by the fact that the model exhibits contextuality due to the postselection of coincident detection events.

Superposition rule and entanglement in diagonal and probability representations of density states

The quasidistributions corresponding to the diagonal representation of quantum states are discussed within the framework of operator-symbol construction. The tomographic-probability distribution describing the quantum state in the probability representation of quantum mechanics is reviewed. The connection of the diagonal and probability representations is discussed. The superposition rule is considered in terms of the density-operator symbols. The separability and entanglement properties of multipartite quantum systems are formulated as the properties of the density-operator symbols of the system states.
