Optimal entanglement purifying via entanglement swapping

preprint2000arXivOpen access

Abstract

It is known that entanglement swapping can be used to realize entanglement purifying. By this way, two particles belong to different non-maximally entangled pairs can be projected probabilisticly to a maximally entangled state or to a less entangled state. In this report, we show, when the less entangled state is obtained, if a unitary transformation is introduced locally, then a maximally entangled state can be obtained probabilisticly from this less entangled state. The total successful probability of our scheme is equal to the entanglement of a single pairpurification (if two original pairs are in the same non-maximally entangled states) or to the smaller entanglement of a single pair purification of these two pairs (if two original pairs are not in the same non-maximally entangled states). The advantage of our scheme is no continuous indefinite iterative procedure is needed to achieve optimal purifying.
