Entanglement polygon inequalities for a class of mixed states

The study on the entanglement polygon inequality of multipartite systems has attracted much attention.However,most of the results are on pure states.Here we consider the property for a class of mixed states,which are the reduced density matrices of generalizedW-class states in multipartite higher dimensional systems.First we show the class of mixed states satisfies the entanglement polygon inequalities in terms of Tsallis-q entanglement,then we propose a class of tighter inequalities for mixed states in terms of Tsallis-q entanglement.At last,we get an inequality for the mixed states,which can be regarded as a relation for bipartite entanglement.

Entanglement and Volume Monogamy Features of Permutation Symmetric N-Qubit Pure States with N-Distinct Spinors: GHZ and States

We explore the entanglement features of pure symmetric N-qubit states characterized by N-distinct spinors with a particular focus on the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states and , an equal superposition of W and obverse W states. Along with a comparison of pairwise entanglement and monogamy properties, we explore the geometric information contained in them by constructing their canonical steering ellipsoids. We obtain the volume monogamy relations satisfied by states as a function of number of qubits and compare with the maximal monogamy property of GHZ states.

A hybrid method integrating Green's function Monte Carlo and projected entangled pair states

This paper introduces a hybrid approach combining Green’s function Monte Carlo(GFMC)method with projected entangled pair state(PEPS)ansatz.This hybrid method regards PEPS as a trial state and a guiding wave function in GFMC.By leveraging PEPS’s proficiency in capturing quantum state entanglement and GFMC’s efficient parallel architecture,the hybrid method is well-suited for the accurate and efficient treatment of frustrated quantum spin systems.As a benchmark,we applied this approach to study the frustrated J_(1)–J_(2) Heisenberg model on a square lattice with periodic boundary conditions(PBCs).Compared with other numerical methods,our approach integrating PEPS and GFMC shows competitive accuracy in the performance of ground-state energy.This paper provides systematic and comprehensive discussion of the approach of our previous work[Phys.Rev.B 109235133(2024)].

Entanglement diversion and quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states

The proposals on entanglement diversion and quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states are presented. In these proposals, the entanglement between two coherent states, ｜α〉 and ｜-α〉, with the same amplitude but a phase difference of π is utilized as a quantum channel. The processes of the entanglement diversion and the teleportation are achieved by using the 50/50 symmctric beam splitters, the phase shifters and the photodetectors with the help of classical information.

Scheme for entanglement concentration of unknown W class states via linear optics

This paper proposes a scheme for entanglement concentration of unknown triparticle W class states with a certain probability. This protocol is mainly based on the coincidences of single-photon detectors and requires single-photon detectors and linear optical elements. The scheme is feasible within current technology.

Entanglement dynamics of a moving multi-photon Jaynes-Cummings model in mixed states

Using the algebraic dynamical method, the entanglement dynamics of an atom-field bipartite system in a mixed state is investigated. The atomic center-of-mass motion and the field-mode structure are also included in this system. We find that the values of the detuning and the average photon number are larger, the amplitude of the entanglement is smaller, but its period does not increase accordingly. Moreover, with the increase of the field-mode structure parameter and the transition photon number, the amplitude of the entanglement varies slightly while the oscillation becomes more and more fast. Interestingly, a damping evolution of the entanglement appears when both the detuning and the atomic motion are considered simultaneously.

Quantum Entanglement and Nonlocality Properties of Two-Mode Squeezed Thermal States in a Common-Reservoir Model

We study a system consisting of two identical non-interacting single-mode cavity fields coupled to a common vacuum environment and provide general, explicit, and exact solutions to its master equation by means of the characteristic function method. We analyze the entanglement dynamics of two-mode squeezed thermal state in this model and show that its entanglement dynamics is strongly determined by the two-mode squeezing parameter and the purity. In particular, we find that two-mode squeezed thermal state with the squeezing parameter r ≤ -（1/2） In √u is extremely fragile and almost does not survive in a common vacuum environment. We investigate the time evolution of nonlocality for two-mode squeezed thermal state in such an environment. It is found that the evolved state loses its nonlocality in the beginning of the evolution, but after a time, the revival of nonlocality can occur.

Multipartite entanglement concentration of electron-spin states with CNOT gates

We propose a different entanglement concentration protocol （ECP） for nonlocal N-electron systems in a partially entangled Bell-type pure state using the CNOT gates and the projection measurements on an additional electron. For each nonlocal N-electron system, Alice first entangles it with the additional electron, and then she projects the additional electron onto an orthogonal basis for dividing the N-electron systems into two groups. In the first group, the N parties obtain a subset of N-electron systems in a maximally entangled state directly. In the second group, they obtain some less-entangled N-electron systems, which are the resource for the entanglement concentration in the next round. By iterating the entanglement concentration process several times, the present ECP has the maximal success probability, which is the theoretical limit of an ECP, equal to the entanglement of the partially entangled state, and higher than the others. This ECP may be useful in quantum computers based on electron-spin systems in the future.

A novel quantum information hiding protocol based on entanglement swapping of high-level Bell states

Using entanglement swapping of high-level Bell states, we first derive a covert layer between the secret message and the possible output results of the entanglement swapping between any two generalized Bell states, and then propose a novel high-efficiency quantum information hiding protocol based on the covert layer. In the proposed scheme, a covert channel can be built up under the cover of a high-level quantum secure direct communication （QSDC） channel for securely transmitting secret messages without consuming any auxiliary quantum state or any extra communication resource. It is shown that this protocol not only has a high embedding efficiency but also achieves a good imperceptibility as well as a high security.

Entanglement evolution of three-qubit mixed states in multipartite cavity-reservoir systems

We analyze the multipartite entanglement evolution of three-qubit mixed states composed of a GHZ state and a W state. For a composite system consisting of three cavities interacting with independent reservoirs, it is shown that the entanglement evolution is restricted by a set of monogamy relations. Furthermore, as quantified by the negativity, the entanglement dynamical property of the mixed entangled state of cavity photons is investigated. It is found that the three cavity photons can exhibit the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death （ESD）. However, compared with the evolution of a generalized three-qubit GHZ state which has the equal initial entanglement, the ESD time of mixed states is later than that of the pure state. Finally, we discuss the entanglement distribution in the multipartite system, and point out the intrinsic relation between the ESD of cavity photons and the entanglement sudden birth of reservoirs.

Classical Communication and Entanglement Cost in Preparing a Class of Multi-qubit States

Recently, several similar protocols [J. Opt. B 4 （2002） 380; Phys. Lett. A 316 （2003） 159; Phys. Lett. A 355 （2006） 285; Phys. Lett. A 336 （2005） 317] for remotely preparing a class of multi-qubit states （i.e, α[0...0〉 ＋β[1... 1〉） were proposed, respectively. In this paper, by applying the controlled-not （CNOT） gate, a new simple protocol is proposed for remotely preparing such class of states. Compared to the previous protocols, both classical communication cost and required quantum entanglement in our protocol are remarkably reduced. Moreover, the difficulty of identifying some quantum states in our protocol is also degraded. Hence our protocol is more economical and feasible.

Deformed photon-added entangled squeezed vacuum and one-photon states: Entanglement, polarization, and nonclassical properties

In this paper, after a brief review on the entangled squeezed states, we produce a new class of the continuous-variable- type entangled states, namely, deformed photon-added entangled squeezed states. These states are obtained via the iterated action of the f-deformed creation operator A = f（n）a＋ on the entangled squeezed states. In the continuation, by studying the criteria such as the degree of entanglement, quantum polarization as well as sub-Poissonian photon statistics, the two- mode correlation function, one-mode and two-mode squeezing, we investigate the nonclassical behaviors of the introduced states in detail by choosing a particular f-deformation function. It is revealed that the above-mentioned physical properties can be affected and so may be tuned by justifying the excitation number, after choosing a nonlinearity function. Finally, to generate the introduced states, we propose a theoretical scheme using the nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings model.

Relation between initial conditions and entanglement sudden death for two-qubit extended Werner-like states

In this paper, the dynamical behavior of entanglement of an uncoupled two-qubit system, which interacts with inde- pendent identical amplitude damping environments and is initially prepared in the extended Werner-like （EWL） states, is investigated. The results show that whether entanglement sudden death （ESD） of an EWL state will occur or not depends on initial purity and concurrence. The boundaries between ESD states and ESD-free states for two kinds of EWL states are found to be different. Furthermore, some regions are shown where ESD states can be transformed into ESD-free states by local unitary operations.

Two-mode excited entangled coherent states and their entanglement properties

This paper introduces two types of two-mode excited entangled coherent states （TMEECSs） ψ±（（α,m,n））, studies their entanglement characteristics, and investigates the influence of photon excitations on quantum entanglement. It shows that for the state （ψ＋ （α, m, m）} the two-mode photon excitations affect seriously entanglement character while the state [ ψ-（α, m, m）） is always a maximally entangled state, and shows how such states can be produced by using cavity quantum electrodynamics and quantum measurements. It finds that the entanglement amount of the TMEECSs is larger than that of the single-mode excited entangled coherent states with the same photon excitation number.

Monogamy relations of quantum entanglement for partially coherently superposed states

Monogamy is a fundamental property of multi-partite entangled states. Recently, Kim J S[Phys. Rev. A 93 032331] showed that a partially coherent superposition （PCS） of a generalized W-class state and the vacuum saturates the strong monogamy inequality proposed by Regula B et al.[Phys. Rev. Lett. 113 110501] in terms of squared convex roof extended negativity; and this fact may present that this class of states are good candidates for studying the monogamy of entanglement. Hence in this paper, we will investigate the monogamy relations for the PCS states. We first present some properties of the PCS states that are useful for providing our main theorems. Then we present several monogamy inequalities for the PCS states in terms of some entanglement measures.

Quantum entanglement and nonlocality properties of two-mode Gaussian squeezed states

Quantum entanglement and nonlocality properties of a family of two-mode Gaussian pure states have been investigated. The results show that the entanglement of these states is determined by both the two-mode squeezing parameter and the difference of the two single-mode squeezing parameters. For the same two-mode squeezing parameter, these states show larger entanglement than the usual two-mode squeezed vacuum state. The violation of Bell inequality depends strongly on all the squeezing parameters of these states and disappears completely in the limit of large squeezing. In particular, these states can exhibit much stronger violation of local realism than two-mode squeezed vacuum state in the range of experimentally available squeezing values.

Maximal entanglement from photon-added nonlinear coherent states via unitary beam splitters

In this paper, we construct photon-added f-deformed coherent states （PAf-DCSs） for nonlinear bosonic fields by discussing Klauder＇s minimal set of conditions required to obtain coherent states. Using this set of nonlinear states, we propose a very useful scheme for generating the maximal amount of entanglement via unitary beam splitters for different strength regimes of the input field α, deformation q and excitation number m. Therefore, the possibility to create highly entangled states and to control the entanglement is proposed. Moreover, the condition for a maximal and separable output beam state is obtained. Finally, we examine the statistical properties of the PAf-DCSs through the Mandel parameter and exploit a connection between this quantity and the behavior variation of the output state entanglement. Our result may open new perspectives in different tasks of quantum information processing.

Robust generation of qutrit entanglement via adiabatic passage of dark states

We propose a scheme for the deterministic generation of qutrit entanglement for two atoms trapped in an optical cavity. Taking advantage of the adiabatic passage, the operation is immune to atomic spontaneous emission as the atomic excited states are never populated; under certain conditions, the probability that the cavity is excited is negligible. We also study the influences of the dissipation due to the atomic spontaneous emission and cavity decay.

Scheme for Entanglement Concentration of Unknown Multiparticle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger or W Class States

We present,two schemes for concentrating unknown nonmaximally entangled Greenberger Horme-Zeilinger(GHZ) or W class states.The first scheme for concentrating the nonmaximally entangled GHZ state is based on linearoptical devices.The second scheme for concentrating the W class states can be applied to a wide variety of atomic state.Both of our schemes are not postselection ones and are within the current technologies.

Relative entropy entanglement for as a measure of Gaussian states

In this paper, we derive an explicit analytic expression of the relative entropy between two general Gaussian states. In the restriction of the set for Gaussian states and with the help of relative entropy formula and Peres-Simon separability criterion, one can conveniently obtain the relative entropy entanglement for Gaussian states. As an example, the relative entanglement for a two-mode squeezed thermal state has been obtained.
