Quantum correlations for two-qubit X states through the local quantum uncertainty

Abstract

Local quantum uncertainty is defined as the minimum amount of uncertainty in measuring a local observable for a bipartite state. It provides a well-defined measure of pairwise quantum correlations in quantum systems and has operational significance in quantum metrology. In this work, we analytically derive the expression of local quantum uncertainty for two-qubit [Formula: see text] states which are of paramount importance in various fields of quantum information. As an illustration, we consider two-qubit states extracted from even and odd spin coherent states.
