Teleportation of Post-Selected Quantum States

Daniel Collins

Published Mar 14, 2024• 2 citations
arXivHTMLPDF

Abstract

Teleportation allows Alice to send a pre-prepared quantum state to Bob using only pre-shared entanglement and classical communication. Here we show that it is possible to teleport a state which is also post -selected. Post-selection of a state Φ means that after Alice has finished her experiment she performs a measurement and only keeps runs of the experiment where the measurement outcome is Φ . We also demonstrate pre and post-selected port -based teleportation. Finally we use these protocols to perform instantaneous non-local quantum computation on pre and post-selected systems, and significantly reduce the entanglement required to instantaneously measure an arbitrary non-local variable of spatially separated pre and post-selected systems.

Teleportation as a measure of entanglement for an arbitrary state of two qubits

J. Grondalski, Daniel F. V. James

Summary form only given. Characterizing the entanglement of a general bipartite quantum system is a difficult problem. Most measures involve difficult extremizations and their physical motivation is not always clear. In this paper we propose an experimental measure of entanglement based on a modified version of the familiar teleportation protocol of Bennett et al. (1993). Briefly, teleportation traditionally involves two parties, Alice and Bob. Initially, Alice has a qubit in an unknown quantum state which she would like to communicate to Bob and Bob has two qubits in an entangled Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pair. To accomplish this transfer, Bob shares one qubit of his EPR pair with Alice. She then performs a joint measurement or Bell measurement on her two qubits and relays this information back to Bob over a classical channel. Bob then uses the outcome of Alice's Bell measurement to transform his qubit, with a local unitary transformation, into the original quantum state, always with a fidelity of one.

Port-based teleportation of continuous quantum variables

Jason Boisselle

Quantum teleportation allows to transmit quantum information using classical information and entanglement only. Port-based teleportation is a variation of this procedure that involves simpler recovery operations to obtain the transmitted quantum information. This provides significant advantages in different applications such as instantaneous non-local computation. \nWe study port-based teleportation for continuous variable systems. We connect this problem to hypothesis testing, generalizing a result already known for finite-dimensional systems. Similarly, we present a relation between entanglement fidelity and average fidelity valid for both finite and infinite-dimensional systems. Finally, we present a protocol that reduces port-based teleportation for infinite-dimensional systems to port-based teleportation of finite-dimensional systems which allows us to show that the former task is, at least in principle, possible with a finite amount of resources.

On Achieving Superluminal Communication

Dhananjay P. Mehendale

What is proposed here is a simple modication in the quantum protocol [1] for achieving instantaneous teleportation of arbitrary quantum state from Alice to Bob even when Bob is several light years away. This modied quantum protocol is constructed by adding a step the in the celebrated quantum teleportation protocol [1]. It consists of the action of a unitary operator to be performed by Alice on the qubits in her possession before she does the Bell basis measurement. It is important to note that the existing quantum teleportation protocol [1] requires certain classical communication between the participants, Alice and Bob, and we are going to eliminate this classical communication through our modification. In the existing protocol [1] Alice requires sending the classical bits generated during her Bell basis measurement over a classical channel to Bob for Bob to use these classical bits to determine the exact recovery operation to be performed on the qubit(s) in his possession for creating the exactly identical copy of unknown quantum state that was with Alice and got destroyed during her Bell basis measurement. Alice cannot send the classical bits she obtained to Bob with the speed faster than that of light since it is the well known experimentally veried universal upper limit on the speed. We show that by incorporating suitable unitary operation to be performed by Alice on her qubits before the Bell basis measurement the requirement of the transmission of classical bits by Alice to Bob for the creation of the unknown quantum state by Bob at his place can be completely eliminated. Our modification in the teleportation protocols [1], [2] thus clearly demonstrates the enormous advantage of remaining in the quantum regime and avoiding the requirement of any classical communication for the teleportation of the quantum states.

Probabilistic Teleportation of an Arbitrary N-qubit State via Entanglement Swapping

Yi-Qi Wang, Fang Jian-Xing, Jiang Wei-Xing +1 more

Recently, there is much interest in the study of quantum teleportation. Its marvelous security property makes it particularly attractive as potential means for future communication. Uncertain principal and no-cloning theories of quantum mechanics forbid exact copy of quantum states. To solve the problem, quantum teleportation devides message state into two parts: classical message and quantum message which are transmitted through relevant classical and quantum channels from a sender Alice to a distant receiver Bob, respectively. According to both message states, Bob can recover the original message state with certain possibility. Utilizing the general quantum teleportation protocol, in this scheme, a new method is presented by which multi-qubit quantum information can be teleported in a much easier way. It has been extended to teleportation of an arbitrary N-qubit state via entanglement swapping and probabilistic teleportation is investigated as well, which has a more general meaning. N non-maximally entangled triplet GHZ states (Greenberger-Home-Zeilinger), taking the place of the previous EPR states (Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen), serve as quantum channels, which avoids introducing extra auxiliary qubit. In order to complete the teleportation, Alice has to devide all qubits into N parts and make Bell-State measurement on qubit pair (i, x(subscript i)) and tell Bob the measurement result through classical channel, then Bob perform some simple local operations on qubits (y(subscript i), z(subscript i)) to finish teleporting the i-th qubit. Conditioned on N-times similar repeat, Bob can faithfully reconstruct the initial state. Results show that, in this method, the identification difficulty of entangled states is considerably reduced, the new method is more feasible in technique. And the total possibility of successful teleportation is (The equation is abbreviated). As a special case, teleportation of an arbitrary two-qubit state is proposed.

Quantum Teleportation: Alice and Bob experiment revisited

Vandana Arora, Jagneet Kaur Anand

In this article, the authors have discussed the Alice and Bob experimental set-up for the quantum teleportation, giving a detailed step-by step mathematical explanation of each unit. Quantum teleportation of a qubit requires the creation of an entangled quantum state between the sender’s (Alice) and the receiver’s (Bob) shared quantum state/s. At the end of this experiment, actual measurements of the Alice’s share of quantum information are to be taken and shared with Bob via a classical communication channel. The teleportation is expected to open up a whole new regime of quantum communication, data encryption to be one of its applications.

A method for teleporting an unknown quantum state and its application

Fengli Yan, Huo Hai-Rui

We suggest a method for teleporting an unknown quantum state. In this method the sender Alice first uses a Controlled-Not operation on the particle in the unknown quantum state and an ancillary particle which she wants to send to the receiver Bob. Then she sends ancillary particle to Bob. When Alice is informed by Bob that the ancillary particle is received, she performs a local measurement on the particle and sends Bob the outcome of the local measurement via a classical channel. Depending on the outcome Bob can restore the unknown quantum state, which Alice destroyed, on the ancillary particle successfully. As an application of this method we propose a quantum secure direct communication protocol.
