Abstract
Using just polarizing beam splitters and half-wave plates, we present a practical experimental scheme, by which one can conveniently identify two of the three-particle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states. The scheme can easily be generalized to the -particle case. The GHZ-state analyzer is essential for multiparticle generalizations of quantum dense coding, quantum teleportation, and entanglement swapping.
