Anticoherence and entanglement of spin states — •John Martin1, Dorian Baguette1, François Damanet1, Thierry Bastin1, and Olivier Giraud21Institut de Physique Nucléaire, Atomique et de Spectroscopie, Université de Liège, 4000 Liège, Belgium — 2LPTMS, CNRS, Univ.

We investigate multiqubit permutation-symmetric states with maximally mixed reduced density matrices in the symmetric subspace [1]. Such states can be viewed as particular spin states, namely anticoherent spin states [2]. Using the Majorana representation of spin states in terms of points on the unit sphere [3], we analyze the consequences of degeneracies of the Majorana points and of a point-group symmetry in their arrangement on the existence of anticoherent spin states. We provide different characterizations of anticoherence and establish a link between point symmetries, anticoherence, and SLOCC classes [4]. We consider in detail the case of small numbers of qubits and solve the 4-qubit case completely by identifying and characterizing all 4-qubit anticoherent states.
