Quantum teleportation in the presence of noisy channels acting on a bipartite resource state is considered. We consider a family of generalized noisy channels that continuously connect the amplitude damping and the dephasing channels, encompassing a wide family of in-between scenarios, to delve into the relation between the teleportation success and the amount of three- and four-partite entanglement (distributed among the qubits of the resource state and those representing local environments) generated during the evolution. Our analysis reveals that for a fixed entanglement of the resource state, the channels that better protect the teleportation fidelity against the detrimental effects of noise are those that generate higher amounts of (Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger--type) multipartite entanglement. This suggests that the dynamically induced multipartite correlations may serve as an additional resource for teleportation and provides insight into the characterization of processes and of the type of induced entanglement according to their ability to assist the protocol.

In this work, we investigate controlled quantum teleportation in the presence of noisy channels acting on the three-qubit resource state. We employ a series of generalized noisy channels that bridge the dephasing channels and amplitude damping channels while encompassing extensive intermediate scenarios. We provide an in-depth analysis of the degradation of the maximal average fidelity and the optimal average fidelity in controlled quantum teleportation induced by such noisy channels by deriving the analytical expression and examining several special cases. The analytical expression shows that attaining the optimal average fidelity requires Charlie's cooperation in performing a measurement at suitably chosen angles, and is also related to the initial state and the channel parameters. Our analysis reveals that the optimal average fidelity does not always decrease monotonically with the evolution parameter, instead, it first decreases and then increases. This non-monotonic behavior depends on the entanglement of the initial resource state, as well as on the parameters of the channel traversed by the first qubit.
The effects of distributing entanglement through the amplitude damping channel or the phase damping channel on the teleportation of a single-qubit state via the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state and the W state are discussed. It is found that the average fidelity of teleportation depends on the type and rate of the damping in the channel. For the one-qubit affected case, the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state is as robust as the W state, i.e., the same quantum information is preserved through teleportation. For the two-qubit affected case, the W state is more robust when the entanglement is distributed via the amplitude damping channel; if the entanglement is distributed via the phase damping channel, the W state is more robust when the noisy parameter is small while the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state becomes more robust when it is large. For the three-qubit affected case, the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state is more robust than the W state.
In distributed quantum computing, quantum networks provide a potential infrastructure for long-range quantum information processing. Controlled quantum teleportation (CQT) is a key practically relevant protocol that can connect two parties on a network and enables a third party, the controller to allow or abort the secure teleportation of an arbitrary single-qubit state between the two parties. We investigate the robustness of a three-qubit GHZ resource under bit-flip, phase-flip, depolarizing, and amplitude-damping noise. Using the Kraus-operator formalism, we characterize the noisy resource through multipartite quantum discord, genuine multipartite concurrence (GMC), localizable entanglement (LE), and CQT fidelity. We also outline a proof-of-concept photonic implementation for preparing the three-qubit GHZ resource and realizing the CQT protocol, which could enable experimental investigation of the effects of noise. Our results show that bit-flip and amplitude-damping noise generally preserve useful mutipartite quantum correlations over broader noise parameter ranges. Interestingly, multipartite discord exhibits freezing under bit-flip noise over a finite parameter regime. Moreover, discord can persist beyond the sudden death of genuine multipartite entanglement, revealing the distinct robustness of nonclassical correlations. We further demonstrate that CQT fidelity which characterizes the performance of CQT can exceed the classical threshold even after GMC vanishes, while LE more closely reflects the operational usefulness of the noisy resource. These findings highlight the complementary roles of quantum correlations and entanglement in assessing the resilience of GHZ-based protocols.
Abstract In this paper quantum teleportation of an unknown quantum state via noisy maximally bipartite (Bell) and maximally tripartite (Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ)) entangled states are investigated. We suppose that one of the observers who would receive the sent state accelerates uniformly with respect to the sender. The interactions of the quantum system with its environment during the teleportation process impose noises. These (unital and nonunital) noises are: phase damping, phase flip, amplitude damping and bit flip. In expressing the modes of the Dirac field used as qubits, in the accelerating frame, the so-called single mode approximation is not imposed. We calculate the fidelities of teleportation, and discuss their behaviors using suitable plots. The effects of noise, acceleration and going beyond the single mode approximation are discussed. Although the Bell states bring higher fidelities than GHZ states, the global behaviors of the two quantum systems with respect to some noise types, and therefore their fidelities, are different.
For single-qubit teleportation, it has been shown that there is a family of two-qubit mixed states whose teleportation fidelity can be enhanced by subjecting one of the qubits to an amplitude damping channel. This is an interesting result, since noise in general degrades quantum entanglement. It is believed that this enhancement is due to an improvement in the classical correlations of the two-qubit states. Here, we consider two-qubit teleportation using a family of four-qubit mixed states as a resource. In this context, we show that one can again achieve enhancement in teleportation fidelity via dissipative interactions with the local environment. For a rather general class of input states, we find that this improvement implies an enhancement in the quantum discord of some teleported states. We conjecture that an improvement in some quantum property of the four-qubit mixed states could have resulted from the local interactions. We expect that our analysis will make an important case study for future investigations on the different aspects of composite quantum systems.
Quantum teleportation of the quantum correlated states via noisy channels is investigated. The noisy channels are realized by a couple of two-level atoms (qubits) embedded in a zero-temperature bosonic bath. The entanglement of the channels is provided by the interqubit interaction and/or through the memory of the environment. Especially for the case of noninteracting qubits, the resource of the teleportation can be supplied by the entangled state of the channel, which is provided by information backflow in the non-Markovian regime of the evolution. More non-Markovianity of the dynamics generates a higher amount of induced entanglement and hence enhances the quality of the quantum correlation teleportation process. When the degree of non-Markovianity of dynamics is sufficiently high, quantum teleportation, which is superior to classical communication, is achievable.
