Abstract

We show that the geometry of the set of quantum states plays a crucial role in the behavior of entanglement in different physical systems. More specifically, it is shown that singular points at the border of the set of unentangled states originate singularities in the dynamics of entanglement of smoothly varying quantum states. We illustrate this result by implementing a photonic parametric down-conversion experiment. Moreover, this effect is connected to recently discovered singularities in condensed matter models.
