Braiding transformation, entanglement swapping and Berry phase in entanglement space

Quantum Physics 2009-11-13 v3

Abstract

We show that braiding transformation is a natural approach to describe quantum entanglement, by using the unitary braiding operators to realize entanglement swapping and generate the GHZ states as well as the linear cluster states. A Hamiltonian is constructed from the unitary Rˇi,i+1(θ,ϕ)\check{R}_{i,i+1}(\theta,\phi)-matrix, where ϕ=ωt\phi=\omega t is time-dependent while θ\theta is time-independent. This in turn allows us to investigate the Berry phase in the entanglement space.
