Relationship among locally maximally entanglable states, W states and hypergraph states under local unitary transformations
Abstract
Kruszynska and Kraus [Phys. Rev. A 79, 052304 (2009)] have recently introduced the so-called locally maximally entanglable (LME) states of n qubits which can be maximally entangled to local auxiliary qubits using controlled operations. We characterize the local entanglability of hypergraph states and W states using an approach in [Phys. Rev. A 79, 052304 (2009)]. We show that (i) all hypergraph states are LME; (ii) hypergraph states and LME states are not equivalent under local unitaries; (iii) a W state of n qubits is not LME; and (iv) no hypergraph state of n qubits can be converted into to the W state under local unitary transformations. Moreover, we also present an approach for encoding weighted hypergraphs into LME states.
