title: One-step hyperentanglement purification and hyperdistillation with linear optics.
abstract: We investigate a new approach for achieving hyperdistillation and hyperentanglement purification operations simultaneously on two-photon systems, whose state is described by nonlocal hyperentangled Bell states on both the spatial mode and polarization degree of freedoms. Exploiting linear optics and local entanglement resource, the quantum nondemolition (QND) parity-checking measurement and the heralded two-qubit amplification could are key steps in our scheme. With the QND parity-checking measurement and heralded qubit amplification operations, both the bit-flip (phase-flip) errors caused by decoherence in noisy channels and the vacuum errors caused by the transmission losses can be corrected. We show that the proposed scheme provides a new solution to overcome the problem of photon losses and decoherence simultaneously, which could be achieved with current technologies.
