Abstract

Speeding up of the processing of quantum algorithms has been focused on from the point of view of an ensemble quantum computer (EQC) working in a parallel mode. As a consequence of such efforts, additional speed up has been achieved for processing both Shor's and Grover's algorithms. On the other hand, in the literature there is scarce concern about the quantity of entanglement contained in EQC approaches, for this reason in the present work we study such a quantity. As a first result, an upper bound on the quantity of entanglement contained in EQC is imposed. As a main result we prove that equally weighted states are not appropriate for EQC working in parallel mode. In order that our results are not exclusively purely theoretical, we exemplify the situation by discussing the entanglement on an ensemble of n1 = 3 diamond quantum computers.
