Abstract

The entangling power of a bipartite unitary operation shows the maximum created entanglement with the product input states. For an arbitrary two-qubit unitary operation, it is sufficient to consider its normalized operation U with parameters c 0 c 1 c 2and c 3. We show how to compute the entangling power of U when c 2 = c 3. In particular we construct the analytical expressions of entangling power of such U for two examples. We also formulate the entangling power of bipartite unitary operations of Schmidt rank two for any dimensions.
