Abstract
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering, as one of the most intriguing phenomenon of quantum mechanics, is a useful quantum resource for quantum communication. Understanding the type of EPR steering in a graph state is the basis for application of it in a quantum network. In this paper, we present EPR steering in a Gaussian weighted graph state, including a linear tripartite and a four-mode square weighted graph state. The dependence of EPR steering on weight factor in the weighted graph state is analyzed. Gaussian EPR steering between two modes of a weighted graph state is presented, which does not exist in the Gaussian cluster state (where the weight factor is unit). For the four-mode square Gaussian weighted graph state, EPR steering between one and its two nearest modes is also presented, which is absent in the four-mode square Gaussian cluster state. We also show that Gaussian EPR steering in a weighted graph state is also bounded by the Coffman-Kundu-Wootters monogamy relation. The presented results are useful for exploiting EPR steering in a Gaussian weighted graph state as a valuable resource in multiparty quantum communication tasks.
