The paper investigates entangling operations acting on two qudits of arbitrary dimension, with one encoded in the states of a spatially multimode optical field, the other in those of atomic collective spin coherence, both carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM). We demonstrate the generation of a wide range of entangling operations within a protocol consisting of two Faraday interactions and a rotation of atomic and light quadratures between them. All generated gates can be represented as rational powers of the d-dimensional gate $SWAP^α_d$. The probabilities of two-qudit transformations are calculated for various dimensions of the logical space and for different entangling powers of the logical gates.

For the efficient implementation of quantum algorithms, practical ways to generate many-body entanglement are a basic requirement. Specifically, coupling multiple qubit pairs at once can be advantageous and may provide multiqubit operations useful in the construction of hardware-tailored algorithms. Here we extend the theory of fractional state transfer and harness the simultaneous coupling of qubits on a chain to engineer a set of nonlocal parity-dependent quantum operations suitable for a wide range of applications. The resulting effective long-range couplings directly implement a parametrizable Trotter-step for Jordan-Wigner fermions, and they can be used for simulations of quantum dynamics, efficient state generation in variational quantum eigensolvers, parity measurements for error-correction schemes, and the generation of efficient multiqubit gates. Moreover, we present numerical simulations of the gate operation in a superconducting quantum circuit architecture, which show a high gate fidelity for realistic experimental parameters.

We represent an optical scheme using cross-Kerr nonlinearities (XKNLs) and quantum dot (QD) within a single-sided optical cavity (QD-cavity system) to generate three-photon entangled W state containing entanglement against loss of one photon of them. To generate W state (three-photon) with robust entanglement against loss of one photon, we utilize effects of optical nonlinearities in XKNLs (as quantum controlled operations) and QD-cavity system (as a parity operation) with linearly optical devices. In our scheme, the nonlinear (XKNL) gate consists of weak XKNLs, quantum bus beams, and photon-number-resolving measurement to realize controlled-unitary gate between two photons while another nonlinear (QD) gate employs interactions of photons and an electron of QD confined within a single-sided optical cavity for implementation of parity gate. Subsequently, for the efficiency and experimental feasibility of our scheme generating W state, we analyze the immunity of the controlled-unitary gate using XKNLs against decoherence effect and reliable performance of parity gate using QD-cavity system.
