We consider the probability that a bipartite quantum state contains phase-conjugate-state (PCS) pairs and/or identical-state pairs as signatures of quantum entanglement. While the fraction of the PCS pairs directly indicates the property of a maximally entangled state, the fraction of the identical-state pairs negatively determines antisymmetric entangled states such as singlet states. We also consider the physical limits of these probabilities. This imposes fundamental restrictions on the pair appearance of the states with respect to the local access of the physical system. For continuous-variable system, we investigate similar relations by employing the pairs of phase-conjugate coherent states. We also address the role of the PCS pairs for quantum teleportation in both discrete-variable and continuous-variable systems.

AbstractEntanglement is an essential feature of quantum theory and the core of the majority of quantum information science and technologies. Quantum computing is one of the most important fruits of quantum entanglement and requires not only a bipartite entangled state but also more complicated multipartite entanglement. In previous experimental works to demonstrate various entanglement-based quantum information processing, light has been extensively used. Experiments utilizing such a complicated state need highly complex optical circuits to propagate optical beams and a high level of spatial interference between different light beams to generate quantum entanglement or to efficiently perform balanced homodyne measurement. Current experiments have been performed in conventional free-space optics with large numbers of optical components and a relatively large-sized optical setup. Therefore, they are limited in stability and scalability. Integrated photonics offer new tools and additional capabilities for manipulating light in quantum information technology. Owing to integrated waveguide circuits, it is possible to stabilize and miniaturize complex optical circuits and achieve high interference of light beams. The integrated circuits have been firstly developed for discrete-variable systems and then applied to continuous-variable systems. In this article, we review the currently developed scheme for generation and verification of continuous-variable quantum entanglement such as Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen beams using a photonic chip where waveguide circuits are integrated. This includes balanced homodyne measurement of a squeezed state of light. As a simple example, we also review an experiment for generating discrete-variable quantum entanglement using integrated waveguide circuits.

In this letter we show that in the relativistic regime, maximally entangled state of two spin-1/2 particles not only gives maximal violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality but also gives the largest violation attainable for any pairs of four spin observables that are noncommuting for both systems. Also, we extend our results to three spin-1/2 particles. We obtain the largest eigenvalue of Bell operator and show that this value is equal to the expectation value of Bell operator on GHZ state.

Two three-party schemes are put forward for sharing quantum operations on a remote qutrit with local operation and classical communication as well as shared entanglements. The first scheme uses a two-qutrit and three-qutrit non-maximally entangled states as quantum channels, while the second replaces the three-qutrit non-maximally entangled state with a two-qutrit. Both schemes are treated and compared from the four aspects of quantum and classical resource consumption, necessary-operation complexity, success probability and efficiency. It is found that the latter is overall more optimal than the former as far as a restricted set of operations is concerned. In addition, comparisons of both schemes with other four relevant ones are also made to show their two features, including degree generalization and channel-state generalization. Furthermore, some concrete discussions on both schemes are made to expose their important features of security, symmetry and experimental feasibility. Particularly, it is revealed that the success probabilities and intrinsic efficiencies in both schemes are completely determined by the shared entanglement.

In this paper, we derive tight bounds for the eavesdropping attacks on continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) protocol that involves nonmaximally entangled states. We show that deriving bounds on the eavesdropper's accessible information based on the Heisenberg uncertainty yields upper bounds, but those bounds are not tight. For this reason, we follow different techniques to derive the desired tight bounds. The new bounds are tight for all CV-QKD protocols that involve two-mode entangled state. Our derivations are applied to direct and reverse reconciliation schemes of protocol implementation, respectively.

In this paper the possibility of using mixing entangled states as quantum channel to accomplish quantum state sharing (QSTS) is considered. As a preliminary study, an efficient tripartite QSTS scheme is put forward by utilizing a mixing entangled state, which is a derivative of a six-qubit entangled pure state under a two-qubit confusion. Some specific discussions about the QSTS scheme are made, including the issues of the scheme determinacy, the sharer symmetry, the scheme security and the essential role of quantum channel as well as the current experimental feasibility.

AbstractIn this article, we revisit the question of analysing the efficiencies of partially entangled states in three-qubit classes under real conditions. Our results show some interesting observations regarding the efficiencies and correlations of partially entangled states. Surprisingly, we find that the efficiencies of many three-qubit partially entangled states exceed that of maximally entangled three-qubit states under real noisy conditions and applications of weak measurements. Our analysis, therefore, suggests that the efficiencies of partially entangled states are much more robust to noise than those of maximally entangled states at least for the GHZ (Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger) class states, for certain protocols; i.e. less correlations in the initially prepared state may also lead to better efficiency and hence one need not always consider starting with a maximally entangled state with maximum correlations between the qubits. For a set of partially entangled states, we find that the efficiency is optimal, independent of the decoherence and state parameters, if the value of weak measurement parameter is very large. For other values of the weak measurement parameter, the robustness of the states depends on the decoherence and state parameters. Moreover, we further show that one can achieve higher efficiencies in a protocol by using non-optimal weak measurement strengths instead of optimal weak measurement strengths.

Let p be an odd prime and let r be the smallest generator of the multiplicative group Zp∗. We show that there exists a correlation of size Θ(r2) that self-tests a maximally entangled state of local dimension p−1. The construction of the correlation uses the embedding procedure proposed by Slofstra (Forum of Mathematics, Pi. (2019)). Since there are infinitely many prime numbers whose smallest multiplicative generator is in the set {2,3,5} (D.R. Heath-Brown The Quarterly Journal of Mathematics (1986) and M. Murty The Mathematical Intelligencer (1988)), our result implies that constant-sized correlations are sufficient for self-testing of maximally entangled states with unbounded local dimension.

In this work, we investigate the bipartite entanglement of decohered mixed states generated from maximally entangled cluster states of [Formula: see text] qubits physical system. We introduce the disconnected cluster states for an ensemble of [Formula: see text] non-interacting qubits and we give the corresponding separable density matrices. The maximally entangled states can be generated from disconnected cluster states, by assuming that the dynamics of the multi-qubit system is governed by a quadratic Hamiltonian of Ising type. When exposed to a local noisy interaction with the environment, the multi-qubit system evolves from its initial pure maximally entangled state to a decohered mixed state. The decohered mixed states generated from bipartite, tripartite and multipartite maximally entangled cluster states are explicitly expressed and their bipartite entanglements are investigated.

Based on Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) quantum entanglement, we construct a new kind of four-mode entangled states of continuous variables in Fock space and examine its complete property and partly non-orthonormal property. A set-up of one beamsplitter and two polarizers can generate such a four-mode entangled state. The discussion can also be extended to constructing more particles' entangled states.

An entanglement concentration protocol in photonic collective-rotating decoherence-free subspace (CRDFS) is proposed. To accomplish the scheme, two methods to construct parity measurement devices in CRDFS are presented by exploiting the cross-Kerr nonlinearity, through which partially entangled states are converted to maximally entangled states. The performance of the protocol can be improved by iteration method. Fidelity in consideration of dissipation is discussed, which demonstrates good robustness. In contrast to the conventional protocols, the present one has distinctive feature since it can not only get maximally entangled state from less entangled state, but also maintain the maximal entanglement in collective-rotating noise environment.
