Detecting Entanglement in Unfaithful States

Entanglement witness is an effective method to detect entanglement in unknown states without doing full tomography. One of the most widespread schemes of witnessing entanglement is measuring its fidelity with respect to a pure entangled state. Recently, a large class of states whose entanglement can not be detected with the fidelity witness has been discovered in Phys.Rev.Lett 124,200502(2020). They are called unfaithful states. In this paper we propose a new way to detect entanglement by calculating the lower bound of entanglement using measurement results. Numerical simulation shows our method can detect entanglement in unfaithful states with a small number of measurements. Moreover, we generalize our scheme to multipartite states and show that it can tolerate higher noise than previous entanglement witness operators with same number of measurement settings.
