Abstract:
Lying in between entanglement and Bell nonlocality, the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering has
received increasing attention in recent years. To characterize the EPR-steering, many criteria have been proposed and experimentally implemented.
Nevertheless, only a few results are given to quantify the steerability with analytical results.
In this work, we propose a method to quantify the steerability for two-qubit quantum states in the two-setting EPR-steering senario,
by using the connection between joint measurability and the steerability.
We derive the analytical formula of the steerability for a class of X-states. The sufficient and necessary conditions for
two-setting EPR-steering are presented.
Based on these results, a class of asymmetric states: one-way steerable states are obtained.
