Entanglement detection in permutation symmetric states based on violation of local sum uncertainty relation

We show that violation of variance based local sum uncertainty relation (LSUR) for angular momentum operators of a bipartite system, proposed by Hofmann and Takeuchi, Phys. Rev. A 68, 032103 (2003)], is necessary and sufficient for entanglement in two-qubit permutation symmetric state. Moreover, we also establish its one-to-one connection with negativity of covariance matrix [Phys. Lett. A 364, 203 (2007)] of the two-qubit reduced system of a permutation symmetric N-qubit state. Consequently, it is seen that the violation of the angular momentum LSUR serves as a necessary condition for pairwise entanglement in $N$-qubit system, obeying exchange symmetry. We illustrate physical examples of entangled permutation symmetric N-qubit systems, where violation of the local sum uncertainty relation manifests itself as a signature of pairwise entanglement.
