Blind qubit state disentanglement with Quantum processing: Principle, criterion and algorithm using measurements along two directions
Yannick Deville, Alain Deville · 2014
In the framework of Blind Quantum Source Separation, we investigate the adaptation of a separating system which receives coupled quantum bit (qubit) states and processes them with quantum means in its feedforward path, to uncouple them. We propose the first separation principle which ensures that the output qubit states of this system are disentangled and that they restore the non-entangled source qubit states up to limited indeterminacies. This separation principle exploits measurements of output spin components along two directions and has some links with the non-quantum Independent Component Analysis (ICA) principle. It opens the way to various practical separation criteria and algorithms, some of which are described here.
