Photonic Floquet topological insulators feature so-called edge states, and wavepackets built from edge states are topologically protected. As a result, they naturally resist the scrambling effects of disorder and retain their shape during propagation. This useful property gives rise to the intriguing possibility of protecting two-photon entangled states. While the necessary conditions to protect two-photon entanglement in topological insulators (TIs) have been well established[1], it is yet unclear how to construct optimally entangled two-photon states. This is no trivial task since the degree of entanglement, and the amount of bulk scattering are naturally competing properties inside TIs. In this work, we take a more general approach by defining a black-box optimization problem, which is tackled using a machine-learning based Latent Action Monte Carlo Tree Search (LA-MCTS) meta-algorithm[2]. We present the optimized states that we obtain by exploring the space of all possible states and discuss their properties. [1] K.Tschernig et al., Nat. Commun.12, 1974 (2021).
