Received: 14 March 2013; in revised form: 3 May 2013 / Accepted: 8 May 2013 / Published: 16 May 2013 Abstract: Entanglement concentration is of most importance in long distance quantum communication and quantum computation. It is to distill maximally entangled states from pure partially entangled states based on the local operation and classical communication. In this review, we will mainly describe two kinds of entanglement concentration protocols. One is to concentrate the partially entangled Bell-state, and the other is to concentrate the partially entangled W state. Some protocols are feasible in current experimental conditions and suitable for the optical, electric and quantum-dot and optical microcavity systems. Keywords: quantum entanglement; entanglement concentration; quantum communication 1. Introduction Quantum communication and quantum computation have attracted much attention over the last 20 years, due to the absolute safety in the information transmission for quantum communication and the super fast factoring for quantum computation [1,2]. -
Quantum Macroscopicity Versus Distillation of Macroscopic
Quantum macroscopicity versus distillation of macroscopic superpositions Benjamin Yadin1 and Vlatko Vedral1, 2 1Atomic and Laser Physics, Clarendon Laboratory, University of Oxford, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PU, UK 2Centre for Quantum Technologies, National University of Singapore, Singapore 117543 (Dated: October 7, 2018) We suggest a way to quantify a type of macroscopic entanglement via distillation of Greenberger- Horne-Zeilinger states by local operations and classical communication. We analyze how this relates to an existing measure of quantum macroscopicity based on the quantum Fisher information in sev- eral examples. Both cluster states and Kitaev surface code states are found to not be macroscopically quantum but can be distilled into macroscopic superpositions. We look at these distillation pro- tocols in more detail and ask whether they are robust to perturbations. One key result is that one-dimensional cluster states are not distilled robustly but higher-dimensional cluster states are. PACS numbers: 03.65.Ta, 03.67.Mn, 03.65.Ud I.

Quantum error correction is currently considered to be an extremely impor- tant area of quantum computing as any physically realisable quantum computer will need to contend with the issues of decoherence and other quantum noise. A number of tech- niques have been developed that provide some protection against these problems, which will be discussed. 1. Introduction It has been realised that the quantum mechanical behaviour of matter at the atomic and subatomic scale may be used to speed up certain computations. This is mainly due to the fact that according to the laws of quantum mechanics particles can exist in a superposition of classical states. A single bit of information can be modelled in a number of ways by particles at this scale. This leads to the notion of a qubit (quantum bit), which is the quantum analogue of a classical bit, that can exist in the states 0, 1 or a superposition of the two. A number of quantum algorithms have been invented that provide considerable improvement on their best known classical counterparts, providing the impetus to build a quantum computer. -

One reason is that for qubits we have a convenient description of the system by the means of the well-studied correlation tensor allowing to encode the complete information about the state in mean values of dichotomic measurements. The other reason is the more complicated structure of the state space, where, for example, different Schmidt ranks or bound entanglement comes into play. We demonstrate that for three-dimensional quantum subsystems we are able to formulate nonlinear entanglement criteria of the state with existing formalisms. We also point out where the idea for constructing these criteria fails for higher-dimensional systems, which poses well-defined open questions.

Success Rates for Linear Optical Generation of Cluster States in Coincidence Basis
Success rates for linear optical generation of cluster states in coincidence basis D B Uskov1,2*, P M Alsing3, M L Fanto3, L Kaplan2 and A M Smith3 1Brescia University, Owensboro, KY 42301 2Tulane University, New Orleans, LA 70118 3Air Force Research Lab, Information Directorate, 525 Brooks Road, Rome, NY 13440 *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. We report on theoretical research in photonic cluster-state computing. Finding optimal schemes of generating non-classical photonic states is of critical importance for this field as physically implementable photon- photon entangling operations are currently limited to measurement-assisted stochastic transformations. A critical parameter for assessing the efficiency of such transformations is the success probability of a desired measurement outcome. At present there are several experimental groups which are capable of generating multi-photon cluster states carrying more than eight qubits. Separate photonic qubits or small clusters can be fused into a single cluster state by a probabilistic optical CZ gate conditioned on simultaneous detection of all photons with 1/9 success probability for each gate. This design mechanically follows the original theoretical scheme of cluster state generation proposed more than a decade ago by Raussendorf, Browne and Briegel. The optimality of the destructive CZ gate in application to linear optical cluster state generation has not been analyzed previously. Our results reveal that this method is far from the optimal one. Employing numerical optimization we have identified that maximal success probability of fusing n unentangled dual-rail optical qubits into a linear cluster state is equal to 12n1 ;m- tuple of photonic Bell pair states, commonly generated via spontaneous parametric down-conversion, can be fused into a single cluster with the maximal success probability of 14m1 . -
Quantum Computing Cluster State Model
Quantum Computing Cluster State Model Phillip Blakey, Alex Karapetyan, Thomas Ma December 2019 1 Introduction The traditional circuit-based model of quantum computation is strictly based on unitary evolution. Especially in view of the Principle of Deferred Measurement in the context of implementation of algorithms with the circuit model, the role of measurement is secondary to unitary quantum gates - a quantum circuit, sans the final measurements, is the application of a carefully crafted unitary transformation to a carefully chosen initial quantum state. Measurement is a non-unitary operation and thereby ruins quantum states. The cluster state model of quantum computing, also known as a \one-way quantum computer", is based on the idea of performing a sequence of single-qubit measurements on some large initial state, resulting in an output in the form of a several-qubit state. In particular, measurement is essential to the entirety of any computation, in contrast to the circuit model. This model was first introduced in [1] (see also [2]), and it has been studied from both the theoretical and experimental implementation points of view. The initial state of a computation in this model, called a cluster state, is a specially prepared entangled state associated to a particularly chosen graph. To perform a quantum computation on a cluster state, the rules of the game are: (a) the allowed operations are single-qubit measurements in any basis on any of the nodes of the graph, (b) the basis in which to measure at every stage of the sequence is conditioned on the outcome of the previous measurement, and (c) efficient classical processing is allowed on the measurement outcomes. -
Logical Measurement-Based Quantum Computation in Circuit-QED
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Logical measurement-based quantum computation in circuit- QED Jaewoo Joo1,2*, Chang-Woo Lee 1,3, Shingo Kono4 & Jaewan Kim1 We propose a new scheme of measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) using an error- correcting code against photon-loss in circuit quantum electrodynamics. We describe a specifc protocol of logical single-qubit gates given by sequential cavity measurements for logical MBQC and a generalised Schrödinger cat state is used for a continuous-variable (CV) logical qubit captured in a microwave cavity. To apply an error-correcting scheme on the logical qubit, we utilise a d-dimensional quantum system called a qudit. It is assumed that a three CV-qudit entangled state is initially prepared in three jointed cavities and the microwave qudit states are individually controlled, operated, and measured through a readout resonator coupled with an ancillary superconducting qubit. We then examine a practical approach of how to create the CV-qudit cluster state via a cross-Kerr interaction induced by intermediary superconducting qubits between neighbouring cavities under the Jaynes- Cummings Hamiltonian. This approach could be scalable for building 2D logical cluster states and therefore will pave a new pathway of logical MBQC in superconducting circuits toward fault-tolerant quantum computing. Measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) ofers a new platform of quantum information (QI) pro- cessing. Quantum algorithms are performed by sequential single-qubit measurements in multipartite entangled states initially (e.g., cluster states1) instead of massive controls of individual qubits during the whole information processing2,3. Tis advantage is, however, only benefcial for QI processing if the specifc multipartite entangled state can be initially well-prepared and the capability of fast and precise single-qubit measurements are viable. -
