Entangling photons via the double quantum Zeno effect
  We propose a scheme for entangling two photons via the quantum Zeno effect, which describes the inhibition of quantum evolution by frequent measurements and is based on the difference between summing amplitudes and probabilities. For a given error probability $P_{\rm error}$, our scheme requires that the one-photon loss rate $\xi_{1\gamma}$ and the two-photon absorption rate $\xi_{2\gamma}$ in some medium satisfy $\xi_{1\gamma}/\xi_{2\gamma}=2P_{\rm error}^2/\pi^2$, which is significantly improved in comparison to previous approaches. Again based on the quantum Zeno effect, as well as coherent excitations, we present a possibility to fulfill this requirement in an otherwise linear optics set-up.
