• Abstract: Multipartite entanglement is an essential quantum resource for various distributed quantum applications. One promising method for preparing multipartite entanglement is to interfere independent photons at linear optical interference setups. While heralding the successful interference and thereby the state generation is often costly, postselecting entangled states provides an achievable alternative in this framework. We introduce a family of interference schemes for postselecting symmetric qudit Dicke states, useful resources in quantum communication and variational quantum computing. We present schemes with and without ancillary photons and show that using ancillary photons can exceed the upper bound on the success probability of schemes without ancillary photons. Our results accommodate a wide range of linear optical schemes, providing multiple viable approaches for postselecting Dicke states.

  We design a passive conditional gate between co-propagating photons using an array of only two-level emitters. The key resource is to harness the effective photon-photon interaction induced by the chiral coupling of the emitter array to two waveguide modes. We show how to harness this non-linear phase shift to engineer a conditional, deterministic photonic gate in different qubit encodings.
