Many quantum information protocols rely on the ability to distinguish between entangled quantum states known as Bell states. However, theoretical limits exist on the maximal distinguishability of these entangled states using linear evolution and local measurement (LELM) devices. In the case of two particles entangled in multiple qubit variables, the maximum number of distinguishable Bell states...

Abstract The inevitable dissipative interaction of an entangled quantum system with its environment causes degradation in correlations present the system. This can lead to a finite-time disappearance entanglement, which is known as Entanglement Sudden Death (ESD). Here, we consider initially qubit-qutrit and noise leads ESD, propose set local unitary operations, when applied on qubit, qutrit, o...

Magic state distillation (MSD) is a purification protocol that plays a central role in fault tolerant quantum computation. Repeated iteration of the steps of a MSD protocol generates pure single non-stabilizer states, or magic states, from multiple copies of a mixed resource state using stabilizer operations only. Thus mixed resource states promote the stabilizer operations to full universality...

We present a way to physically realize a circulant 2-qubit entangling gate in the Kauffman-Jones version of SU(2) Chern-Simons theory at level 4. Our approach uses qubit and qutrit ancillas, braids, fusions and interferometric measurements. Our qubit is formed by four anyons of topological charges 1221. Among other 2qubit entangling gates we generate in the present work, we produce in particula...

we study the dynamics of two three-level atoms interacting with independent bosonic lorentzian reservoirs at zero temperature. such systems can be created in far astronomical objects. quantum mechanical behaviour of these particles can produce detectable effects on the spectroscopic identifications of these objects, if such behaviour remain stable during the interaction with their media. it is ...

We present numerical evidence showing that any three-dimensional subspace of C ⊗ Cn has an orthonormal basis which can be reliably distinguished using one-way LOCC, where a measurement is made first on the 3-dimensional part and the result used to select an optimal measurement on the n-dimensional part. This conjecture has implications for the LOCC-assisted capacity of certain quantum channels,...
