Two-Ievel (qubit) clock systems are often used to perform precise measurement of time. In this work, we propose a compression protocol for $n$ identically prepared states of qubit clocks. The protocol faithfully encodes the states into…
If a pure state of a qubit pair is developed over the four basis states, it is known that an equality between the four coefficients of that development exists if and only if that state is unentangled. This paper considers an arbitrary pure…
