Abstract
The manipulation of quantum many-body systems is a frontier challenge in quantum science. Entangled quantum states that are symmetric to permutation between qubits are of growing interest. Yet, the creation and control of symmetric states has remained a challenge. Here, we find a way to universally control symmetric states, proposing a scheme that relies solely on coherent rotations and spin squeezing. We present protocols for the creation of different symmetric states including Schrodinger cat and Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill states. The obtained symmetric states can be transferred to traveling photonic states via spontaneous emission, providing a powerful mechanism for the creation of desired quantum light states.
