Multipartite Spin Coherent States and Spinor States (2307.00875v1)

Abstract: Multipartite generalizations of spin coherent states are introduced and analyzed. These are the spin analogues of multimode optical coherent states as used in continuous variable quantum information, but generalized to possess full spin symmetry. Two possible generalizations are given, one which is a simple tensor product of a given multipartite quantum state. The second generalization uses the bosonic formulation in the Jordan-Schwinger map, which we call spinor states. In the unipartite case, spinor states are equivalent to spin coherent states, however in the multipartite case, they are no longer equivalent. Some fundamental properties of these states are discussed, such as their observables and covariances with respect to symmetric operators, form preserving transformations, and entanglement. We discuss the utility of such multipartite spin coherent and spinor states as a way of storing quantum information.
