Calibrated hypergraph states: II calibrated hypergraph state construction and applications
Roberto Zucchini
TL;DR
Calibrated hypergraph states unify higher-order quantum correlations and qudit degrees of freedom within a graded $\varOmega$-monad framework, enabling a constructive morphism-based construction of hypergraph states over general Galois rings. The paper proves that these calibrated states are locally maximally entangleable stabilizer states and clarifies their relationship to weighted hypergraph states, showing they reduce to the weighted case in qubits but not for higher-dimensional qudits. By developing the explicit calibrated hypergraph map $|{-}\rangle$ and analyzing stabilizers, monadic covariance, and effective representations, the work provides a comprehensive foundation for classification, optimization, and practical constructions (including finite-field qudits and CZ-gate assemblies). The approach yields broad generality beyond prior weighted-hypergraph formalisms, with concrete algorithms and polynomial-phase expressions when qudits are field-based, advancing both theoretical understanding and potential quantum information applications.
Abstract
Hypergraph states are a special kind of multipartite states encoded by hypergraphs relevant in quantum error correction, measurement--based quantum computation, quantum non locality and entanglement. In a series of two papers, we introduce and investigate calibrated hypergraph states, an extension of weighted hypergraph states codified by hypergraphs equipped with calibrations, a broad generalization of weightings. The guiding principle informing our approach is that a constructive theory of hypergraph states must be based on a categorical framework for both hypergraphs and multi qudit states constraining hypergraph states enough to render the determination of their general structure possible. In this second paper, we build upon the graded $\varOmega$ monadic framework worked out in the companion paper, focusing on qudits over a generic Galois ring. We explicitly construct a calibrated hypergraph state map as a special morphism of the calibrated hypergraph and multi qudit state $\varOmega$ monads. We further prove that the calibrated hypergraph states so yielded are locally maximally entangleable stabilizer states, elucidate their relationship to weighted hypergraph states, show that they reduce to the weighted ones in the familiar qubit case and prove through examples that this is no longer the case for higher qudits.
