ENTANGLEMENT AND TELEPORTATION IN BIPARTITE SYSTEM

Abstract
We present a mathematical formulation of old teleportation protocol (original teleportation protocol introduced by Bennett et al.) for mixed state and study in detail the role of mixedness of the two-qubit quantum channel in a teleportation protocol. We show that maximally entangled mixed state described by the density matrix of rank-4 will be useful as a two-qubit teleportation channel to teleport a single qubit mixed state when the teleportation channel parameter p1 > 1/2. Also we discuss the case when p1 ≤ 1/2.
