  1. Graph states form an important class of multipartite entangled quantum states. We propose a new approach for distributing graph states across a quantum network. We consider a quantum network consisting of nodes—quantum computers within which local operations are free—and EPR pairs shared between nodes that can continually be generated. We prove upper bounds for our approach on the number of EPR pairs consumed, completion time, and amount of classical communication required, all of which are equal to or better than that of prior work [10]. We also reduce the problem of minimizing the completion time to distribute a graph state using our approach to a network flow problem having polynomial time complexity.
