Unitary generation of GHZ states

Abstract

Entangled states represent fascinating elements of quantum mechanics and quantum technology. Their generation is an interesting problem combining many techniques developed in quantum optics. Using algebraic properties of special transforms we derive the explicit form of the effective Hamiltonian that enables the generation of highly nonclassical states of the GHZ type. Such Hamiltonians belong to the higher order Hamiltonians often discussed in nonlinear quantum optics. We derive the form of the effective Hamiltonian that enables the generation of highly nonclassical states of the GHZ type.
