Abstract:	We present an entanglement concentration protocol (ECP) to concentrate arbitrary four-photon less-entangled cluster state into maximally entangled cluster state. Different from other ECPs for cluster state, we only exploit the single photon as auxiliary, which makes this protocol feasible and economic. In our ECP, the concentrated maximally entangled state can be retained for further application and the discarded state can be reused for a higher success probability. This ECP works with the help of cross-Kerr nonlinearity and conventional photon detectors. This ECP may be useful in future one-way quantum computation.
