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.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-05-03T09:41:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.67.Mn", "03.67.Ac" ], "keywords": [ "hypergraph state", "local unitary transformations", "locally maximally entanglable states", "relationship", "lme states" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review A", "year": 2013, "month": "May", "volume": 87, "number": 5, "pages": "052331" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013PhRvA..87e2331Q" } } }
