Entanglement Concentration Using Quantum Statistics
Nikola Paunković, Yasser Omar, Sougato Bose, Vlatko Vedral · Physical Review Letters · 2002
We propose an entanglement concentration scheme which uses only the effects of quantum statistics of indistinguishable particles. This establishes the fact that useful quantum information processing can be accomplished by quantum statistics alone. Because of the basis independence of statistical effects, our protocol requires less knowledge of the initial state than most entanglement concentration schemes. Moreover, no explicit controlled operation is required at any stage.
