Abstract

The entangling power of a bipartite unitary operation shows the maximum created entanglement with the product input states. For an arbitrary two-qubit unitary operation, it is sufficient to consider its normalized operation UU with parameters c0,c1,c2c_0,c_1,c_2 and c3c_3. We show how to compute the entangling power of UU when c2=c3c_2=c_3. In particular we construct the analytical expressions of entangling power of such UU for two examples. We also construct the entangling power of bipartite unitary operations of Schmidt rank two for any dimensions.
