Figure 11.2. Possible scheme to create a general N-mode pure Gaussian<br />

state. White balls are vacua, while each color depicts a different single-mode<br />

determinant (i.e. different degrees of local mixedness). Vertical arrows denote<br />

single-mode squeezing operations with squeezing parameters rj, horizontal<br />

circle-ended lines denote beam-splitting operations, Eq. (2.26), with transmittivity<br />

bi,j between modes i and j, and horizontal diamond-ended lines denote<br />

two-mode seraphiques, Eq. (11.2), with amplitudes ci,j. See text for details.<br />

for N = 4. Instead, it would be very interesting to investigate if the average<br />

entanglement of the output Gaussian states numerically obtained by a statistically<br />

significant sample of applications of our scheme with random parameters, matches
