Phase-Conjugate-State Pairs in Entangled States

Abstract

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.

Entanglement and nonlocality for a mixture of a pair-coherent state

Stefano Mancini, P. Tombesi

We consider a bipartite continuous variables quantum mixture coming from phase randomization of a pair-coherent state. We study the nonclassical properties of such a mixture. In particular, we quantify its degree of entanglement, then we show possible violations of Bell's inequalities. We also consider the use of this mixture in quantum teleportation. Finally, we compare this mixture with that obtained from a pair-coherent state by single photon loss.

One-complex-plane representation: a coherent-state description of entanglement and teleportation

József Janszky, A. Gábris, Mátyás Koniorczyk +2 more

It is shown that any state of two modes of the electromagnetic field (or any other bipartite bosonic system) can be expressed as a coherent superposition of conjugate coherent-state pairs. This representation has a deep connection with both the two-mode squeezing operator and a maximally entangled basis. A description of continuous variable quantum teleportation is presented, as an example of the application of this method.

Near-perfect quantum teleportation between continuous and discrete encodings

Ravi Kamal Pandey, Shraddha Singh, Dhiraj Yadav +1 more

Quantum teleportation between polarized single-photon and phase-opposite coherent states is studied using a hybrid entangled resource and entangled coherent states. The polarized single-photon qubit represents a discrete-variable (DV) quantum system, whereas the phase-opposite coherent-state qubit constitutes a continuous-variable (CV) system. While teleportation from CV to DV can be achieved with near-unit success probability, the reverse process is usually limited to a maximum success probability of $1/2$. We demonstrate that, by employing cross-Kerr nonlinearity together with passive linear optical components such as polarizing beam splitters, beam splitters, and phase shifters, almost perfect teleportation from DV to CV encodings can also be achieved.

One-particle and two-particle visibilities in bipartite entangled Gaussian states

Danko Dimchev Georgiev, Leon Bello, Avishy Y. Carmi +1 more

Complementarity between one-particle visibility and two-particle visibility in discrete systems can be extended to bipartite quantum-entangled Gaussian states implemented with continuous-variable quantum optics. The meaning of the two-particle visibility originally defined by Jaeger, Horne, Shimony, and Vaidman with the use of an indirect method that first corrects the two-particle probability distribution by adding and subtracting other distributions with varying degree of entanglement, however, deserves further analysis. Furthermore, the origin of complementarity between one-particle visibility and two-particle visibility is somewhat elusive and it is not entirely clear what is the best way to associate particular two-particle quantum observables with the two-particle visibility. Here, we develop a direct method for quantifying the two-particle visibility based on measurement of a pair of two-particle observables that are compatible with the measured pair of single-particle observables. For each of the two-particle observables from the pair is computed corresponding visibility, after which the absolute difference of the latter pair of visibilities is considered as a redefinition of the two-particle visibility. Our approach reveals an underlying mathematical symmetry as it treats the two pairs of one-particle or two-particle observables on equal footing by formally identifying all four observable distributions as rotated marginal distributions of the original two-particle probability distribution. The complementarity relation between one-particle visibility and two-particle visibility obtained with the direct method is exact in the limit of infinite Gaussian precision where the entangled Gaussian state approaches an ideal Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen state. The presented results demonstrate the theoretical utility of rotated marginal distributions for elucidating the nature of two-particle visibility and provide tools for the development of quantum applications employing continuous variables.

Maximally Entangled Multipartite States: A Brief Survey

Marco Enríquez, Iwona Wintrowicz, Karol Życzkowski

The problem of identifying maximally entangled quantum states of a composite quantum systems is analyzed. We review some states of multipartite systems distinguished with respect to certain measures of quantum entanglement. Numerical results obtained for 4-qubit pure states illustrate the fact that the notion of maximally entangled state depends on the measure used.

Quantum teleportation of canonical variables

Zhang Weijun

Two different teleportation protocols are investigated by using two pairs of canonically conjugated observables such as position-momentum and phase-number. The discrete variable and continuous variable quantum teleportation are unified in the framework of canonical quantum teleportation. Canonically conjugated observables are found to play a 3-fold role in the quantum teleportation. Firstly, the common eigenstate of two commuting canonical observables like phase-difference and number-sum provides the quantum channel between two systems. Secondly, a similar pair of canonical observables from another two systems is measured in the Bell operator measurements. Finally, two translations generated by the canonically conjugated observables of a single system constitute the local unitary operation to recover the unknown state.
