Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering incarnates a useful nonclassical
correlation which sits in-between entanglement and Bell nonlocality.
While a number of qualitative steering criteria exist, very little has been
achieved for what concerns quantifying steerability. We introduce a
computable measure of steering for arbitrary bipartite Gaussian states
of continuous variable systems. For two-mode Gaussian states, the
measure reduces to a form of coherent information, which is proven
never to exceed entanglement, and to reduce to it on pure states. We
provide an operational connection between our measure and the key
rate in one-sided device-independent quantum key distribution. We
further prove that steering bound entangled Gaussian states by
Gaussian measurements is impossible. We finally discuss how to
generalise our measure to non-Gaussian states, and its connection with
the degree of violation of linear variance criteria inspired by the
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox.

(UK) and the head of the Quantum Correlations group,
http://quantumcorrelations.weebly.com. He obtained his PhD from the
University of Salerno (Italy) in 2007. He joined Nottingham in 2009 after
postdoctoral positions in Salerno, Rome and Barcelona. His main interests are
in the characterisation, quantification and operational interpretation of
quantum correlations in composite systems, including entanglement,
nonlocality, steering, and discord. He has contributed significantly to the
development of quantum information theory with Gaussian states of
continuous variable systems. He has published over 90 articles, delivered over
60 invited talks, and attracted over 2000 citations.
