Family of continuous-variable entanglement criteria using general entropy functions

We derive a family of entanglement criteria for continuous-variable systems based on the Renyi entropy of complementary distributions. We show that these entanglement witnesses can be more sensitive than those based on second-order moments, as well as previous tests involving the Shannon entropy [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 160505 (2009)]. We extend our results to include the case of discrete sampling. We provide several numerical results which show that our criteria can be used to identify entanglement in a number of experimentally relevant quantum states.
