Abstract Port-based teleportation (PBT) is a protocol of quantum teleportation in which a receiver does not have to apply correction to the transmitted state. In this protocol two spatially separated parties can teleport an unknown quantum state only by exploiting joint measurements on number of shared d-dimensional maximally entangled states (resource state) together with a state to be teleported and one way classical communication. In this paper we analyse for the first time the recycling protocol for the deterministic PBT beyond the qubit case. In the recycling protocol the main idea is to re-use the remaining resource state after one or many rounds of PBT for further processes of teleportation. The key property is to learn how much the underlying resource state degrades after every round of the teleportation process. We measure this by evaluating quantum fidelity between respective resource states. To do so we first present analysis of the square-root measurements used by the sender in PBT by exploiting the symmetries of the system. In particular, we show how to effectively evaluate their square-roots and composition. These findings allow us to present the explicit formula for the recycling fidelity involving only group-theoretic parameters describing irreducible representations in the Schur–Weyl duality. For the first time, we also analyse the degradation of the resource state for the optimal PBT scheme and show its degradation for all d ⩾ 2. In the both versions, the qubit case is discussed separately resulting in compact expression for fidelity, depending only on the number of shared entangled pairs.

In this paper we analyse degradation of the resource state after one round of PBT and implications for the recycling protocol for deterministic PBT introduced earlier. In the recycling protocol the main idea is to re-use the remaining resource state after one or many rounds of PBT for further processes of teleportation. It was stated by other authors that the recycling protocol is by arguing that the resource state does not degrade too much after each round of teleportation process. In particular, there is a claim that the fidelity between ideal resource state and its real version, each of them after one round of PBT, reaches asymptotically 1 when the number of shared entangled pairs tends to infinity. Here, considering original setup for the recycling protocol, we disprove these claims. We show the resource state is heavily distorted after even one round of PBT with fidelity not exceeding the value 1/d. This bound was obtained by referring only to Schwarz inequality and general properties of measurements exploited in the protocol. As additional results we present explicit formula for the mentioned fidelity involving group-theoretic parameters describing irreducible representations in the Schur-Weyl duality. For the first time, we also analyse the degradation of the resource state for the optimal PBT scheme and show its substantial distortion for all d≥2. (...)
A protocol involving the repetitive (twofold, to be precise) application of PBT protocol to the same resource is studied. The quantities characterizing the resulting protocol, so-called \textit{two-step PBT}, namely \textit{enatnglement fidelity} and \textit{success probability} are provided for two scenarios, relying on application of pretty-good measurement, i.e. deterministic and probabilistic PBT with non-EPR resource. This results show that two-step PBT is an accurate protocol, provided the resource is sufficiently large. In particular, the deterministic two-step PBT obtains fidelity that is remarkably close to the optimal MPBT fidelity for teleportation of two quantum states. Additionally, the \textit{recycling fidelity}, i.e. the quantity characterizing the degradation of the resource state is calculated for repetitive application of probabilistic protocol, for both EPR and optimized resource, showing that entanglement recycling with two-step PBT is possible in the former case as well.
Port-based teleportation (PBT) is a form of quantum teleportation in which no corrective unitary is required on the part of the receiver. Two primary regimes exist—deterministic PBT in which teleportation is always successful, but is imperfect, and probabilistic PBT, in which teleportation succeeds with probability less than one, but teleportation is perfect upon a success. Two further regimes exist within each of these, in which the resource state used for the teleportation is fixed to a maximally entangled state or free to be optimized. Recent works have resolved the long-standing problem of efficiently implementing port-based teleportation, tackling the two deterministic cases for qudits. Here, we provide algorithms in all four regimes for qubits. Emphasis is placed on the practicality of these algorithms, where we give polynomial improvements in the known gate complexity for PBT, as well as an exponential improvement in the required number of ancillas (albeit in separate protocols). Our approach to the implementation of the square-root measurement in PBT can be directly generalized to other highly symmetric state ensembles. For certain families of states, such a framework yields efficient algorithms in the case in which the Petz-recovery algorithm for the square-root measurement runs in exponential time.

Abstract Quantum teleportation is one of the fundamental building blocks of quantum Shannon theory. While ordinary teleportation is simple and efficient, port-based teleportation (PBT) enables applications such as universal programmable quantum processors, instantaneous non-local quantum computation and attacks on position-based quantum cryptography. In this work, we determine the fundamental limit on the performance of PBT: for arbitrary fixed input dimension and a large number N of ports, the error of the optimal protocol is proportional to the inverse square of N . We prove this by deriving an achievability bound, obtained by relating the corresponding optimization problem to the lowest Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian on the ordered simplex. We also give an improved converse bound of matching order in the number of ports. In addition, we determine the leading-order asymptotics of PBT variants defined in terms of maximally entangled resource states. The proofs of these results rely on connecting recently-derived representation-theoretic formulas to random matrix theory. Along the way, we refine a convergence result for the fluctuations of the Schur–Weyl distribution by Johansson, which might be of independent interest.
Abstract Port-based teleportation (PBT) is a teleportation protocol that employs a number of Bell pairs and a joint measurement to enact an approximate input-output identity channel. Replacing the Bell pairs with a different multi-qubit resource state changes the enacted channel and allows the PBT protocol to simulate qubit channels beyond the identity. The channel resulting from PBT using a general resource state is consequently of interest. In this work, we fully characterise the Choi matrix of the qubit channel simulated by the PBT protocol in terms of its resource state. We also characterise the PBT protocol itself, by finding a description of the map from the resource state to the Choi matrix of the channel that is simulated by using that resource state. Finally, we exploit our expressions to show improved simulations of the amplitude damping channel by means of PBT with a finite number of ports.
Port-based teleportation (PBT), introduced in 2008, is a type of quantum teleportation protocol which transmits the state to the receiver without requiring any corrections on the receiver's side. Evaluating the performance of PBT was computationally intractable and previous attempts succeeded only with small systems. We study PBT protocols and fully characterize their performance for arbitrary dimensions and number of ports. We develop new mathematical tools to study the symmetries of the measurement operators that arise in these protocols and belong to the algebra of partially transposed permutation operators. First, we develop the representation theory of the mentioned algebra which provides an elegant way of understanding the properties of subsystems of a large system with general symmetries. In particular, we introduce the theory of the partially reduced irreducible representations which we use to obtain a simpler representation of the algebra of partially transposed permutation operators and thus explicitly determine the properties of any port-based teleportation scheme for fixed dimension in polynomial time.
