Estimating the Entanglement Negativity from low-order moments of the   partially transposed density matrix
  We show how to find families of infima and suprema for the entanglement negativity using only a few, low-order moments of the partially transposed density matrix $\rho^{T_2}.$ These moments can be measured using the multi-copy quantum circuits previously given by the author, which define a set of multi-copy expectation values and thus can be used with the replica trick. As such, these bounds are suitable for use with Quantum Monte Carlo methods, and the lower order versions of the estimates may be experimentally accessible for some systems. Using more moments for higher-order versions of these methods will produce tighter estimates, unless and until statistical noise causes the measurement of the highest order moment to fail. Should this happen, the data from lower order moments can still be used for lower-order estimates.
