Relevance of rank for a mixed state quantum teleportation resource

Abstract

Mixed entangled states are generic resource for quantum teleportation. Optimal teleportation fidelity measures the success of quantum teleportation. The relevance of rank in the teleportation process is investigated by constructing three new maximally entangled mixed states (MEMS) of different ranks. Linear entropy, concurrence, optimal teleportation fidelity and Bell function are obtained for each of these states analytically. It is found that mixed states with higher rank are better resource for teleportation. In order to achieve a fixed value of optimal teleportation fidelity, we find that low rank states must have high concurrence. Further, for each of ranks 2, 3 and 4, we numerically generate 30000 maximally entangled mixed states. The analysis of these states reveals the existence of a rank dependent upper bound on optimal teleportation fidelity for a fixed purity. In order to achieve a fixed optimal teleportation fidelity, we find MEMS exhibit a rank dependent lower bound on concurrence. MEMS are classified in terms of their degree of nonlocality. The results are found to be same with logarithmic negativity used as a measure of entanglement.

Rank dependent bounds on mixedness and entanglement for quantum teleportation

K. G. Paulson, S. V. M. Satyanarayana

Entanglement and mixedness of a bipartite mixed state resource are crucial for the success of quantum teleportation. Upper bounds on measures of mixedness, namely, von Neumann entropy and linear entropy beyond which the bipartite state ceases to be useful for quantum teleportation are known in the literature. In this work, we generalize these bounds and obtain rank dependent upper bounds on von Nuemann entropy and linear entropy for an arbitrary bipartite mixed state resource. We observe that the upper bounds on measures of mixedness increase with increase in the rank. For two qubit mixed states, we obtain rank dependent lower bound on the concurrence, a measure of entanglement, below which the state is useless for quantum teleportation. Werner state, which is a fourth rank state, exhibits the theoretical upper bound on mixedness among two qubit mixed states. We construct Werner like states of lower ranks and show that these states possess the theoretical rank dependent upper bounds obtained on the measures of mixedness and theoretical rank dependent lower bounds on the concurrence.

Tripartite non-maximally-entangled mixed states as a resource for optimally controlled quantum teleportation fidelity

K. G. Paulson, Prasanta Kumar Panigrahi

Three-qubit mixed states are used as a channel for controlled quantum teleportation (CQT) of single-qubit states. The connection between different channel parameters to achieve maximum controlled teleportation fidelity is investigated. We show that for a given multipartite entanglement and mixedness a class of non-maximally-entangled mixed $X$ states ($X$-NMEMS) achieves optimum controlled quantum teleportation fidelity; interestingly a class of maximally entangled mixed $X$ states ($X$-MEMS) fails to do so. This demonstrates, for a given spectrum and mixedness, that $X$-MEMS are not sufficient to attain optimum controlled quantum teleportation fidelity, which is in contradiction with the traditional quantum teleportation of single qubits. In addition, we show that biseparable $X$-NMEMS, for a certain range of mixedness, are useful as a resource to attain high controlled quantum teleportation fidelity, which essentially lowers the requirements of quantum channels for CQT.

Mixed-state entanglement and quantum teleportation through noisy channels

Eylee Jung, Mi-Ra Hwang, DaeKil Park +2 more

The quantum teleportation with a noisy EPR state is discussed. Using an optimal decomposition technique, we compute the concurrence, entanglement of formation and Groverian measure for various noisy EPR resources. It is shown analytically that all entanglement measures reduce to zero when , where is an average fidelity between Alice and Bob. This fact indicates that the entanglement is a genuine physical resource for the teleportation process. This fact gives valuable clues to the optimal decomposition for higher-qubit mixed states. As an example, the optimal decompositions for the 3-qubit mixed states are discussed by adopting a teleportation with a W-state.

Teleportation via maximally and non-maximally entangled mixed states

Satyabrata Adhikari, A. S. Majumdar, Sovik Roy +2 more

We study the efficiency of two-qubit mixed entangled states as resources for quantum teleportation. We first consider two maximally entangled mixed states, viz., the Werner state\cite{werner}, and a class of states introduced by Munro {\it et al.} \cite{munro}. We show that the Werner state when used as teleportation channel, gives rise to better average teleportation fidelity compared to the latter class of states for any finite value of mixedness. We then introduce a non-maximally entangled mixed state obtained as a convex combination of a two-qubit entangled mixed state and a two-qubit separable mixed state. It is shown that such a teleportation channel can outperform another non-maximally entangled channel, viz., the Werner derivative for a certain range of mixedness. Further, there exists a range of parameter values where the former state satisfies a Bell-CHSH type inequality and still performs better as a teleportation channel compared to the Werner derivative even though the latter violates the inequality.

TELEPORTING BIPARTITE ENTANGLEMENT USING MAXIMALLY ENTANGLED MIXED CHANNELS

Steve Campbell, Mauro Paternostro

The ability to teleport entanglement through maximally entangled mixed states as defined by concurrence and linear entropy is studied. We show how the teleported entanglement depends on the quality of the quantum channel used, as defined through its entanglement and mixedness, as well as the form of the target state to be teleported. We present new results based on the fidelity of the teleported state as well as an experimental setup that is immediately implementable with currently available technology.

The role of localizable concurrence in quantum teleportation protocols

Mirko Consiglio, Louis Zammit Mangion, Tony J. G. Apollaro

Teleporting an unknown qubit state is a paradigmatic quantum information processing task revealing the advantage of quantum communication protocols over their classical counterpart. For a teleportation protocol using a Bell state as quantum channel, the resource has been identified to be the concurrence. However, for mixed multipartite states the lack of computable entanglement measures has made the identification of the quantum resource responsible for this advantage more challenging. Here, by building on previous results showing that localizable concurrence is the necessary resource for controlled quantum teleportation, we show that any teleportation protocol using an arbitrary multipartite state, that includes a Bell measurement, requires a nonvanishing localizable concurrence between two of its parties to perform better than the classical protocol. By first analyzing Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) channel and GHZ measurement teleportation protocol, in the presence of GHZ-symmetric-preserving noise, we compare different multipartite entanglement measures with the fidelity of teleportation, and we find that the protocol performs better than the classical protocol when all multipartite entanglement measures vanish, except for the localizable concurrence. Finally, we extend our proof to an arbitrary teleportation protocol with an arbitrary multipartite entangled channel.

We show that for a given multipartite entanglement and mixedness a class of non-maximally-entangled mixed XXX states (XXX-NMEMS) achieves optimum controlled quantum teleportation fidelity; interestingly a class of maximally entangled mixed XXX states (XXX-MEMS) fails to do so. This demonstrates, for a given spectrum and mixedness, that XXX-MEMS are not sufficient to attain optimum controlled quantum teleportation fidelity, which is in contradiction with the traditional quantum teleportation of single qubits.
