• Title: Deterministic photonic entanglement arising from non-Abelian quantum holonomy
• Authors: Aniruddha Bhattacharya, Chandra Raman,
• Abstract summary: We develop a protocol for creating and manipulating highly-entangled superpositions of well-controlled states of light. Our calculations indicate that a subset of such entangled superpositions are maximally-entangled, "volume-law" states. We envision that this entangling mechanism could be utilized for realizing universal, entangling quantum gates with linear photonic elements alone.

• Abstract: Realizing deterministic, high-fidelity entangling interactions--of the kind that can be utilized for efficient quantum information processing--between photons remains an elusive goal. Here, we address this long-standing issue by devising a protocol for creating and manipulating highly-entangled superpositions of well-controlled states of light by using an on-chip photonic system that has recently been shown to implement three-dimensional, non-Abelian quantum holonomy. Our calculations indicate that a subset of such entangled superpositions are maximally-entangled, "volume-law" states, and that the underlying entanglement can be distilled and purified for applications in quantum science. Crucially, we generalize this approach to demonstrate the potentiality of deterministically entangling two arbitrarily high, $N$-dimensional quantum systems, by formally establishing a deep connection between the matrix representations of the unitary quantum holonomy--within energy-degenerate subspaces in which the total excitation number is conserved--and the $\left(2j+1\right)$-dimensional irreducible representations of the rotation operator, where $j = \left(N-1\right)/2$ and $N \geq 2$. Specifically, we envisage that this entangling mechanism could be utilized for realizing universal, entangling quantum gates with linear photonic elements alone.

• Engineering quantum states from a spatially structured quantum eraser [0.0]
  Quantum interference can be enabled by projecting the quantum state onto ambiguous properties that render the photons indistinguishable. By combining these ideas, here we design and experimentally demonstrate a simple and robust scheme that tailors quantum interference to engineer photonic states. We believe these spatially-engineered multi-photon quantum states may be of significance in fields such as quantum metrology, microscopy, and communications.
