We show that there is a non-probabilistic way to address in one context the management of entanglement of an arbitrary number of mixed-state qubits by engaging quantitative measures of entanglement and a specific external control mechanism. Both all-party entanglement and weak inseparability are considered. We show that for $N\\ge4$, the death of all-party entanglement is permanent after an initial collapse. In contrast, weak inseparability can be deterministically managed for an arbitrarily large number of qubits almost indefinitely. Our result suggests a picture of the path that the system traverses in the Hilbert space.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-08-09T12:28:30.000Z", "title": "Coherent Control of Multipartite Entanglement", "comment": null, "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-01-30T00:33:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.67.Bg", "03.65.Ud", "03.67.Mn", "42.50.Ex" ], "keywords": [ "multipartite entanglement", "coherent control", "specific external control mechanism", "weak inseparability", "all-party entanglement" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review A", "year": 2015, "month": "Jan", "volume": 91, "number": 1, "pages": "012313" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015PhRvA..91a2313H" } } }
