All non-local states of identical particles, or when indistinguishability is a resource

Description

Entanglement due to symmetrisation of the wave function in the second-quantised theory is ubiquitous, but at the same time it is severely constrained by the inability to address individual particles. So, can it actually be turned into a useful resource for non-local correlations observed in a laboratory? I will show that this is possible with very modest passive linear optical means for almost every state of identical particles.
