Optimal supplier of single-error-type entanglement via coherent-state transmission
arXiv:2203.17116 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.105.062432
Abstract
Compared with entanglement with multiple types of noise, entanglement including only one type of error is a favorable fundamental resource not only for quantum communication but also for distributed quantum computation. We consider protocol that presents single-error-type entanglement for distant qubits via coherent-state transmission over a lossy channel. This protocol is regarded as a subroutine to serve entanglement for larger protocol to yield a final output, such as ebits or pbits. In this paper, we provide a subroutine protocol which achieves the global optimal for typical jointly convex yield functions monotonically non-decreasing with respect to the singlet fraction, such as an arbitrary convex function of a singlet fraction and two-way distillable entanglement/key. Entanglement generation based on remote non-destructive parity measurement protocol [K. Azuma, H. Takeda, M. Koashi, and N. Imoto, Phys. Rev. A 85, 062309 (2012)] is identified as such an optimal subroutine.
