The absolutely maximally entangled (AME) state is a concept in quantum information science, which has many applications in quantum error-correcting code,[1] discrete AdS/CFT correspondence,[2] AdS/CMT correspondence,[2] and more. It is the multipartite generalization of the bipartite maximally entangled state.

Definition

The bipartite maximally entangled state [math]\displaystyle{ |\psi\rangle_{AB} }[/math] is the one for which the reduced density operators are maximally mixed, i.e., [math]\displaystyle{ \rho_A=\rho_B=I/d }[/math]. Typical examples are Bell states.

A multipartite state [math]\displaystyle{ |\psi\rangle }[/math] of a system [math]\displaystyle{ S }[/math] is called absolutely maximally entangled if for any bipartition [math]\displaystyle{ A|B }[/math] of [math]\displaystyle{ S }[/math], the reduced density operator is maximally mixed [math]\displaystyle{ \rho_A=\rho_B=I/d }[/math], where [math]\displaystyle{ d=\min\{d_A,d_B\} }[/math].

Property

The AME state does not always exist; in some given local dimension and number of parties, there is no AME state. There is a list of AME states in low dimensions created by Huber and Wyderka.[3][4]

The existence of the AME state can be transformed into the existence of the solution for a specific quantum marginal problem.[5]

The AME can also be used to build a kind of quantum error-correcting code called holographic error-correcting code.[2][6][7]
