• Title: Generating arbitrary non-separable states with polarization and orbital angular momentum of light
• Authors: Sarika Mishra, Ali Anwar, R.P. Singh
• Abstract summary: We generate arbitrary non-separable states of light using polarization and orbital angular momentum (OAM) degrees of freedom. We observe the intensity distribution corresponding to OAM modes of the light beam by projecting the non-separable state into different polarization states. This classical non-separability can be easily transferred to the quantum domain.

• Abstract: We demonstrate an experimental method to generate arbitrary non-separable states of light using polarization and orbital angular momentum (OAM) degrees of freedom. We observe the intensity distribution corresponding to OAM modes of the light beam by projecting the non-separable state into different polarization states. We further verify the presence of non-separability by measuring the degree of polarization and linear entropy. This classical non-separability can be easily transferred to the quantum domain using spontaneous parametric down-conversion for applications in quantum communication and quantum sensing.

  We experimentally generate entangled photonic modes by continuously exciting a quantum emitter, a superconducting qubit, with a coherent drive. We show that entanglement is generated between modes extracted from the two sidebands of the resonance fluorescence spectrum. Our approach can be utilized to distribute entanglement at a high rate in various physical platforms.

  We establish transportation cost inequalities (TCI) with respect to the quantum Wasserstein distance. We prove Gibbs states of commuting Hamiltonians on arbitrary hypergraphs $H=(V,E)$ satisfy a TCI with constant scaling as $O(|V|)$. We argue that the temperature range for which the TCI holds can be enlarged by relating it to recently established modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.
