Converting Nonclassicality into Entanglement
Abstract: Quantum mechanics exhibits a wide range of non-classical features, of which entanglement in multipartite systems takes a central place. In several specific settings, it is well-known that nonclassicality (e.g., squeezing, spin-squeezing, coherence) can be converted into entanglement. In this work, we present a general framework, based on superposition, for structurally connecting and converting non-classicality to entanglement. In addition to capturing the previously known results, this framework also allows u…

“…This reveals a qualitative and quantitative connection between multilevel nonclassicality and multipartite entanglement, generalizing previous results in the resource theory of quantum coherence [7,12,26], and further contributing towards the formalization of nonclassicality as a resource [15,16,31,32,63]. In particular, multilevel coherence and multipartite entanglement provide significant operational advantages over the resources of standard quantum coherence and bipartite entanglement [13,54,64] and are key ingredients for practical applications such as quantum computation, quantum networks, sensing, and metrology [64][65][66][67].…”

“…We start with the following lemma showing that the number of product terms of a multipartite coherent pure state is an SLICC monotone. Note that the number of product terms has been shown by other authors to be IC monotone [11,29]. We extend this idea and show that the number of product terms is also an SLICC monotone for multipartite coherence.…”

“…Proof. That linear independence is a sufficient condition for faithful entanglement conversion has been shown by construction in [12]. We will prove here that linear independence is also a necessary condition if the free states are countable.…”

“…In the next section, we define our free states and operations formally. To validate the choice of linear independent free states, we prove that linear independence is a necessary and sufficient ingredient for the faithful creation of entanglement, completing earlier results from [12]. Then we characterize the free operations us-ing the concept of reciprocal states known from unambiguous state discrimination [24,25].…”
