It is common belief among physicists that entangled states of quantum systems loose their coherence rather quickly. The reason is that any interaction with the environment which distinguishes between the entangled sub-systems collapses the quantum state. Here we investigate entangled states of two trapped Ca$^+$ ions and observe robust entanglement lasting for more than 20 seconds.

Entangled systems in experiments may be lost or offline in distributed quantum information processing. This inspires a general problem to characterize quantum operations which result in breaking of entanglement or not. Our goal in this work is to solve this problem both in single entanglement and network scenarios. We firstly propose a local model for characterizing all entangled states that are breaking for losing particles. This implies a simple criterion for witnessing single entanglement such as generalized GHZ states and Dicke states. It further provides an efficient witness for characterizing entangled quantum networks depending mainly on the connectivity of network configurations such as $k$-independent quantum networks, completely connected quantum networks, and $k$-connected quantum networks. These networks are universal resources for measurement-based quantum computations. The strong nonlocality can be finally verified by using nonlinear inequalities. These results show distinctive features of both single entangled systems and entangled quantum networks.
We study the disorder-perturbed transport of two entangled particles in the absence of backscattering. This situation is, for instance, realized along edges of topological insulators. We find profoundly different responses to disorder-induced dephasing for the center-of-mass and relative coordinates: While a mirror symmetry protects even highly delocalized relative states when resonant with the symmetry condition, delocalizations in the center of mass (e.g. two-particle N00N states) remain fully sensitive to disorder. We demonstrate the relevance of these differences to the example of interferometric entanglement detection. Our platform-independent analysis is based on the treatment of disorder-averaged quantum systems with quantum master equations.
Quantum self-testing is a device-independent way to certify quantum states and measurements using only the input-output statistics, with minimal assumptions about the quantum devices. Due to the high demand on tolerable noise, however, experimental self-testing was limited to two-photon systems. Here, we demonstrate the first robust self-testing for multi-particle quantum entanglement. We prepare two examples of four-photon graph states, the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states with a fidelity of 0.957(2) and the linear cluster states with a fidelity of 0.945(2). Based on the observed input-output statistics, we certify the genuine four-photon entanglement and further estimate their qualities with respect to realistic noise in a device-independent manner.
We formulate a mixed-state analog of the NLTS conjecture [FH14] by asking whether there exist topologically-ordered systems for which the thermal Gibbs state for constant temperature is globally-entangled in the sense that it cannot even be approximated by shallow quantum circuits. We then prove this conjecture holds for nearly optimal parameters: when the inverse temperature is almost a constant (temperature decays as 1/loglog(n))) and the Hamiltonian is nearly local (log(n)-local). The construction and proof combine quantum codes that arise from high-dimensional manifolds [Has17, LLZ19], the local-decoding approach to quantum codes [LTZ15, FGL18] and quantum locally-testable codes [AE15].
High-fidelity two-qubit entangling gates play an important role in many quantum information processing tasks and are a necessary building block for constructing a universal quantum computer. Such high-fidelity gates have been demonstrated on trapped-ion qubits, however, control errors and noise in gate parameters may still lead to reduced fidelity. Here we propose and demonstrate a general family of two-qubit entangling gates which are robust to different sources of noise and control errors. These gates generalize the celebrated M{o}lmer-S{o}rensen gate by using multi-tone drives. We experimentally implemented several of the proposed gates on $^{88}text{Sr}^{+}$ ions trapped in a linear Paul trap, and verified their resilience.
