研究実績の概要 |
n 2019, we have started research on the properties of multiphoton states in linear optics networks (LONs). To tackle the problem of complicated multiphoton statistics in LONs, we have set up a Mathematica computer program for studying multiphoton statistics in LONs for future research. We have characterized the complementary structure of LONs, and shown the quantum coherences of multiphoton states in LONs can be accessed by a set of generalized Pauli measurements, which are mutually complementary with each other. Employing such complementary Pauli measurements, we have derived a theory of quantification of complementary properties, which allows us to physically detect or characterize particular quantum properties of multiphoton states in LONs. As an application of the theory, we have derived a method for detecting entanglement in bipartite multiphoton LONs. This result opens up physical access to quantum properties of multiphoton states in LONs.
Our result has been presented as a poster in the domestic conference 新学術領域「ハイブリッド量子科学」第 10 回領域会議. A paper of the result has been constructed and prepared for publication.

理由
Following the research plan, in 2019, we have succeeded in setting up a theoretical framework for the analysis of complementary properties of multiphoton states in linear optics networks (LONs). This theoretical framework allows us to access bipartite entanglement in quantum complementary measurements. It is therefore a powerful tool for the theoretical study of entanglement and other relevant properties in LONs, as well as its corresponding experimental realization. As it opens up physical access to quantum coherences of multiphoton states in LONs, we are now ready to go to the next step of our research, which aims to develop a theory of characterization of entanglement with physical operations that are available in experiments. Besides, the characterization of further quantum properties in LONs is now possible, e.g. quantum coherences, state tomography, multipartite entanglement, etc.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
We will continue our research on the study of multiphoton states in linear optics networks (LONs) in two parallel lines. First, we will try to develop an approach to estimate the fidelity of multiphoton states in LONs in experiments and establish a theory for quantum state tomography in multiphoton LONs in the next step. Based on the theory for quantum state tomography, we will then try to study the quantification of quantum coherences in multiphoton LONs aiming to establish a no-go theory of accessible quantum coherences in multiphoton LONs. Second, we will try to quantify entanglement using our established theoretical framework, and extend it to multipartite entanglement in multiphoton LONs. A no-go theory for accessible entanglement is also expected.
