摘要: We demonstrate that the $n$-partite continuous-variable entanglement can be unconditionally prepared among $n$ parties that share no common past, from $n$ two-mode squeezed states. Both GHZ-like and cluster-like states can be generated for any nonzero squeezing in the entangled sources. An application of the resulting multipartite entangled state to a teleportation network is illustrated.
