Single-experiment-detectable multipartite entanglement witness for ensemble quantum computing

In this paper we provide an operational method to detect multipartite entanglement in ensemble-based quantum computing. This method is based on the concept of the entanglement witness. We decompose the entanglement witness for each class of multipartite entanglement into nonlocal operations in addition to local measurements. Individual single-qubit measurements are performed simultaneously; hence complete detection of entanglement is performed in a single-run experiment. In this sense, our scheme is superior to the generally used entanglement witnesses that require a number of experiments and preparation of copies of quantum state for detection of entanglement
