Generating Symmetry-Protected Long-Range Entanglement in Many-Body Systems

Abstract

Entanglement between spatially distant qubits is perhaps the most counterintuitive and vital resource for distributed quantum computing. However, despite a few special cases, there is no known general procedure to maximally entangle two distant parts of an interacting many-body system. Here we present a symmetry-based approach, whereby one applies several timed pulses to drive a system to a particular symmetry sector with maximal bipartite long-range entanglement. As a concrete example, we demonstrate how a simple sequence of on-site pulses on a qubit array can efficiently produce any given number of stable nonlocal Bell pairs, realizable in several present-day atomic and photonic experimental platforms. More generally, our approach paves a route for novel state preparation by harnessing symmetry. For instance, we show how it enables the creation of long-sought-after superconducting $\eta$ pairs in a repulsive Hubbard model.
