Abstract

Entanglement is an important evidence that a quantum device can potentially solve problems intractable for classical computers. In this paper, we prepare connected graph states involving 8 to 16 qubits on ibmqx5, a 16-qubit superconducting quantum processor accessible via IBM cloud,using low-depth circuits. We demonstrate that the prepared state is fully entangled, i.e. the state is inseparable with respect to any fixed partition.
