Abstract
In this manuscript we analyze the emergence of protected multiphoton states in scattering problems with cylindrical symmetry. In order to do that, we first provide a formal definition of the concept of postselected symmetry-protection. We show that the notion of symmetry-protection is not limited to one- or two-photon states, on the contrary, it can be formally extended to the multiphoton case. In addition, we prove for the case of cylindrical symmetry that all possible multiphoton protected states are constructed from a small set of one- and two-photon states. Finally, we point out possible applications that symmetry-protected states may have in quantum communications, concretely, in the construction of decoherence-free subspaces.
