Process of the entanglement transmission on a butterfly network. (a) The initial butterfly network. (b) The butterfly network after removing node 1 through SM transform. (c) The butterfly network after removing nodes 2 and 3 in Fig. (b). (d) The butterfly network after removing node 4 in Fig. (c) through SM transform. (e) The butterfly network after removing node 5 in Fig. (d) by performing series-parallel operations. Here, links with varying line colors denote the weights of the connections, which correspond to the degree of concurrence between the two nodes.

Figure 5.
The scatter plot of c and CSC in the butterfly network under the ConPT. The black scatter plot represents the relationship graph between c and CSC, the red dashed line is the entanglement percolation threshold cth and the blue dashed line is the saturation point csat under the concurrence percolation.

Figure 6.
Comparison of and PSC in the butterfly network. The orange scatter plot represents the relationship graph between c and PSC, the purple scatter plot also represents the relationship graph between c and .
