From Holant to Quantum Entanglement and Back
Holant problems are intimately connected with quantum theory as tensor networks. We first use techniques from Holant theory to derive new and improved results for quantum entanglement theory. We discover two particular entangled states \Psi_6}\rangle$ of 6 qubits and \Psi_8}\rangle$ of 8 qubits respectively, that have extraordinary and unique closure properties in terms of the Bell property. Then we use entanglement properties of constraint functions to derive a new complexity dichotomy for all real valued Holant problems containing an odd arity signature. The signatures need not be symmetric, and no auxiliary signatures are assumed.
