• Authors: Debarupa Saha, Priya Ghosh, Ujjwal Sen,
• Abstract summary: We show that entanglement is necessary for masking an arbitrary set of two single qubit states, regardless of their mixednesses and mutual commutativity. This in turn reveals that entanglement is necessary for masking an arbitrary set of two single qubit states, regardless of their mixednesses and mutual commutativity.

• Abstract: We question the role of entanglement in masking quantum information contained in a set of mixed quantum states. We first show that a masker that can mask any two single-qubit pure states, can mask the entire set of mixed states comprising of the classical mixtures of those two pure qubit states as well. We then try to find the part played by entanglement in masking two different sets: One, a set of mixed states formed by the classical mixtures of two single-qubit pure commuting states, and another, a set of mixed states obtained by mixing two single-qubit pure non-commuting states. For both cases, we show that the masked states remain entangled unless the input state is an equal mixture of the two pure states. This in turn reveals that entanglement is necessary for masking an arbitrary set of two single qubit states, regardless of their mixednesses and mutual commutativity.

• Unsupervised state learning from pairs of states [0.0]
  We show that if an additional copy of each qubit is supplied, that is, one receives pairs of qubits, both in the same state, rather than single qubits. We then simulate numerically the measurement of a sequence of qubit pairs and show that the unknown states and their respective probabilities of occurrence can be found with high accuracy.

  Embezzlement of entanglement refers to the task of extracting entanglement from an entanglement resource via local operations and without communication. We show that finite-dimensional approximations of multipartite embezzling states form multipartite embezzling families. We discuss our results in the context of quantum field theory and quantum many-body physics.

• Separability and entanglement in superpositions of quantum states [0.0]
  We study the superpositions of a pure entangled state and a pure product state, when the amplitudes corresponding to the states appearing in any superposition are nonzero. All such superpositions produce only entangled states if the initial entangled state has Schmidt rank three or higher. We find that conditional inseparability of superpositions help in identifying strategies for conclusive local discrimination of shared quantum ensembles.

  We experimentally realize a masking protocol of the real ququart by virtue of a photonic quantum walk. Our experiment clearly demonstrates that quantum information of the real ququart can be completely hidden in bipartite correlations of two-qubit hybrid entangled states. The hidden information is not accessible from each qubit alone, but can be faithfully retrieved with a fidelity of about 99% from correlation measurements.
