Abstract

Abstract This study proposes a procedure for the robust preparation of maximally entangled states of identical fermionic qubits, studying the role played by particle statistics in the process. The protocol exploits externally activated noisy channels to reset the system to a known state. The subsequent interference effects generated at a beam splitter result in a mixture of maximally entangled Bell states and NOON states. It also discusses how every maximally entangled state of two fermionic qubits distributed over two spatial modes can be obtained from one another by fermionic passive optical transformations. Using a pseudospin‐insensitive, non‐absorbing, parity check detector, the proposed technique is thus shown to deterministically prepare any arbitrary maximally entangled state of two identical fermions. These results extend recent findings related to bosonic qubits. Finally, it analyzes the performance of the protocol for both bosons and fermions when the externally activated noisy channels are not used and the two qubits undergo standard types of noise. The results supply further insights toward viable strategies for noise‐protected entanglement exploitable in quantum‐enhanced technologies.

Asymptotically deterministic robust preparation of maximally entangled bosonic states

Matteo Piccolini, Vittorio Giovannetti, Rosario Lo Franco

We introduce a theoretical scheme to prepare a pure Bell singlet state of two bosonic qubits, in a way that is robust under the action of arbitrary local noise. Focusing on a photonic platform, the proposed procedure employs passive optical devices and a polarization insensitive, nonabsorbing, parity check detector in an iterative process which achieves determinism asymptotically with the number of repetitions. Distributing the photons over two distinct spatial modes, we further show that the elements of the related basis composed of maximally entangled states can be divided in two groups according to an equivalence based on passive optical transformations. We demonstrate that the parity check detector can be used to connect the two sets of states. We thus conclude that the proposed protocol can be employed to prepare any pure state of two bosons which are maximally entangled in either the internal degree of freedom (Bell states) or the spatial mode (NOON states).

Control of noisy entanglement preparation through spatial indistinguishability

Farzam Nosrati, Alessia Castellini, Giuseppe Compagno +1 more

Initialization of composite quantum systems into highly entangled states is usually a must to allow their use for quantum technologies. However, the presence of unavoidable noise in the preparation stage makes the system state mixed, thus limiting the possibility of achieving this goal. Here we address this problem in the context of identical particle systems. We define the entanglement of formation for an arbitrary state of two identical qubits within the operational framework of spatially localized operations and classical communication (sLOCC). We then introduce an entropic measure of spatial indistinguishability under sLOCC as an information resource. We show that spatial indistinguishability, even partial, may shield entanglement from noise, guaranteeing Bell inequality violations. These results prove the fundamental role of particle identity as a control for efficient noise-protected entanglement generation.

Entanglement Robustness via Spatial Deformation of Identical Particle Wave Functions

Matteo Piccolini, Farzam Nosrati, Giuseppe Compagno +3 more

We address the problem of entanglement protection against surrounding noise by a procedure suitably exploiting spatial indistinguishability of identical subsystems. To this purpose, we take two initially separated and entangled identical qubits interacting with two independent noisy environments. Three typical models of environments are considered: amplitude damping channel, phase damping channel and depolarizing channel. After the interaction, we deform the wave functions of the two qubits to make them spatially overlap before performing spatially localized operations and classical communication (sLOCC) and eventually computing the entanglement of the resulting state. This way, we show that spatial indistinguishability of identical qubits can be utilized within the sLOCC operational framework to partially recover the quantum correlations spoiled by the environment. A general behavior emerges: the higher the spatial indistinguishability achieved via deformation, the larger the amount of recovered entanglement.

Entanglement swapping by particle indistinguishability

Alessia Castellini, Bruno Bellomo, Giuseppe Compagno +1 more

Entanglement swapping represents an important protocol for transferring information within quantum networks. Here we present a scheme to implement entanglement swapping with independently-prepared identical particles (bosons or fermions), exploiting the indistinguishability due to their spatial overlap. In this protocol no initial entangled pairs are required and, for fermions, even Bell state measurements have not to be performed. These features constitute both a conceptual and practical advance compared to the standard procedure. The scheme is straightforwardly extended to multiple swapping, which is basic for quantum repeaters and relays in quantum information processing.

Joint remote state preparation protocol for non-maximally entangled W-states and fidelity analysis in noisy environments

Binayak Samadder Choudhury, Manoj Kumar Mandal, Soumen Samanta

In this paper, we discuss a protocol for preparing a non-maximally entangled W-state at a distant location where there are two parties intending such creation each of whom possesses only partial information about the state. These two parties along with a third party Controller, participate in a single protocol in order to create the intended state in the hands of a fourth party. The role of the controller is to fabricate an 8-qubit entangled state and distribute the respective qubits involved in the entangled state to the relevant parties and thereby creating a noisy quantum channel. The protocol is first ideally discussed in the noise-free case which is then a perfect joint remote state preparation protocol with fidelity 1. Then, we discuss the performance of the protocol in the presence of noise in which the fidelity is diminished. We consider three different types of noises and analyze the variation of fidelity of the process.

Protected simultaneous quantum remote state preparation scheme by weak and reversal measurements in noisy environments

Mandal Manoj Kumar, Binayak Samadder Choudhury, Samanta Soumen

We discuss a quantum remote state preparation protocol by which two parties, Alice and Candy, prepare a single-qubit and a two-qubit state, respectively, at the site of the receiver Bob. The single-qubit state is known to Alice while the two-qubit state which is a non-maximally entangled Bell state is known to Candy. The three parties are connected through a single entangled state which acts as a quantum channel. We first describe the protocol in the ideal case when the entangled channel under use is in a pure state. After that, we consider the effect of amplitude damping (AD) noise on the quantum channel and describe the protocol executed through the noisy channel. The decrement of the fidelity is shown to occur with the increment in the noise parameter. This is shown by numerical computation in specific examples of the states to be created. Finally, we show that it is possible to maintain the label of fidelity to some extent and hence to decrease the effect of noise by the application of weak and reversal measurements. We also present a scheme for the generation of the five-qubit entangled resource which we require as a quantum channel. The generation scheme is run on the IBMQ platform.
