ConclusionIntroduction

‘Emergence of typical entanglement in random two-party processes’

• By entanglement we mean, unless otherwise stated, that taken between two parties sharing a pure state.

• By typical/generic entanglement we mean the entanglement average over pure states picked from the uniform (Haar) distribution.

[Hayden, Leung, Winter, Comm. Math.Phys. 2006]

• By two-party process we mean that there are only two-body (and thus local) interactions.

• By random two-party process we mean that the local interaction is picked at random (using classical probabilities).

ConclusionIntroduction

Part I: Typical entanglement- abstract view

• Restricting entanglement types to those that are typical/generic could give a simplified entanglement theory.[Hayden, Leung, Winter, Comm. Math.Phys. 2006]

• ‘Typical’ has been defined relative to a flat distribution on pure states, the unitarily invariant measure, where .

• For a single qubit this can be visualised as

an even density on the Bloch sphere.

• If the associated entanglement probability distribution is concentrated around a value->typical entanglement.

ConclusionIntroduction

Stabilizer, Gaussian states

• Can ask what the typical entanglement is of interesting subsets of states.

• We determined the typical entanglement of stabilizer states[Dahlsten&Plenio, QIC] and Gaussian states[Serafini, Dahlsten&Plenio].

-see also [Smith&Leung quant-ph/0510232]

• Stabilizer states are a finite subset of general states, including the EPR and GHZ states.

• Gaussian states have analogous importance in the continuous variable setting. Here one considers entanglement between ‘modes’.

• We now briefly mention results on the typical entanglement of stabilizer states and Gaussian states.

ConclusionIntroduction

Typical entanglement of Gaussian states• Called ‘Gaussian’ since they are uniquely specified by

(i) first moments (expectations)of pairs(modes) of canonical X, P operators

(ii) a matrix, , giving the second moments of the operators’ expectations.

• The quantum correlations between modes depend only on .

• New Result: we construct a “Thermodynamical state space measure of Gaussian states” to pick in an unbiased manner.

• Known result: Most (relative to flat distribution on pure states) pure states are maximally entangled

• New result: Most (relative to flat distribution) stabilizer states are maximally entangled.

• New result: Most(relative to a distribution we invented) Gaussian states have a typical entanglement.

• But are statements relative to the (flat) unitarily invariant measure physically relevant?

ConclusionIntroduction

Part II: Motivation and Aim

• From part I: Entanglement is typically maximal.

• ‘Typical’ has been defined relative to a flat distribution

on pure states.

• However exp(N=system size) two-qubit gates are necessary to get that flat distribution on states, so it seems not physically relevant.

• Aim: to investigate what entanglement emerges in poly(N) applications of two-qubit gates.

ConclusionIntroduction

The random process

Consider random two-party

interactions modelled as two-

qubit gates:

1. Pick two single qubit unitaries, U and V, uniformly from the Bloch Sphere.

2. Choose a pair of qubits {c,d} without bias.

3. Apply U to c and V to d.

4. Apply a CNOT on c and d.

Entanglement after infinite time

• After infinite time(steps) , the entanglement E is expected to be nearly maximal since get uniform distribution,

Result: efficient generation

• Theorem: The average entanglement of the unitarily invariant measure is reached to a fixed arbitrary accuracy ε within O(N3) steps.

• In other words the circuit is expected to make the input state maximally entangled in a physical number of steps.

ConclusionIntroduction

Efficient generation, proof outline

• The random circuit does a random walk on a massive state space.

• One could consider mapping the random walk onto an associated, faster converging, random walk on the entanglement state space.

• It is a bit more complicated though. In fact we map it onto a random walk relating to the purity.

• We then use known Markov Chain methods to bound the rate of convergence of this smaller walk.

Result: moment it becomes typical

• Numerical observation: can associate a specific time with achievement of generic entanglement.

• This figure shows the total variation, TV, distance to the asymptotic entanglement probability distribution. It tends to a step function with increasing N.

• For larger N we used stabilizer states and tools for efficient evaluation of their entanglement.

[Gottesmann PhD] [Audenaert,Plenio, NJP 2005]

• We term this the variation cut-off moment after [Diaconis, Cut-off effect in Markov chains]
