Fidelity with quadrature component variances for continuous-variable quantum teleportation

Abstract

The efficiency of continuous-variable quantum teleportation is typically quantified by fidelity especially in experiment. From the original definition of fidelity in two pure states, we give an expansion of fidelity which is related to the variances of output and input states. With a coherent or a squeezed input state, it is convenient to quantify the quantum teleportation experiment, since the variances of quadrature components of the input and output states are measurable. Furthermore, the fidelity was discussed when the quantum channel lies in the phase- and amplitude-noisy environment, which is unavoidable in experiment, and this showed that the effect of phase noise on teleportation is more sensitive than that of the amplitude-noisy environment. The classical fidelity limit of squeezed state quantum teleportation is also obtained when the entanglement resources do not exist.

Fidelity between Gaussian mixed states with quantum state quadrature variances

Hailong Zhang, Chun Hua Zhou, Jianhong Shi +1 more

In this paper, from the original definition of fidelity in a pure state, we first give a well-defined expansion fidelity between two Gaussian mixed states. It is related to the variances of output and input states in quantum information processing. It is convenient to quantify the quantum teleportation (quantum clone) experiment since the variances of the input (output) state are measurable. Furthermore, we also give a conclusion that the fidelity of a pure input state is smaller than the fidelity of a mixed input state in the same quantum information processing.

Quantum teleportation of light beams

Ting Zhang, Kok Win Goh, C. W. Chou +2 more

We experimentally demonstrate quantum teleportation for continuous variables using squeezed-state entanglement. The teleportation fidelity for a real experimental system is calculated explicitly, including relevant imperfection factors such as propagation losses, detection inefficiencies, and phase fluctuations. The inferred fidelity for input coherent states is $F=0.61\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02,$ which when corrected for the efficiency of detection by the output observer, gives a fidelity of $0.62.$ By contrast, the projected result based on the independently measured entanglement and efficiencies is $0.69.$ The teleportation protocol is explained in detail, including a discussion on discrepancy between experiment and theory, as well as on the limitations of the current apparatus.

Significance of fidelity deviation in continuous-variable teleportation

Ayan Patra, Rivu Gupta, Saptarshi Roy +1 more

Performance of quantum teleportation is typically measured by the average fidelity, an overlap between the input and output states. Along with the first moment, we introduce the second moment of fidelity in continuous-variable (CV) teleportation, i.e., the fidelity deviation as the figure of merit to assess the protocol's efficiency. We show that CV states, both Gaussian and non-Gaussian, can be better characterized by considering both average fidelity and fidelity deviation, which is not possible with only average fidelity. Moreover, we shed light on the performance of the teleportation protocol in two different input scenarios: One is when input states are sampled from constrained uniform distribution while the other one is Gaussian suppression of the input states which again leads to a different classification of CV states according to their performance. The entire analysis is carried out in noiseless and noisy scenarios with noise being incorporated in the measurement and the shared channels. We also report that one type of noise can make the protocol robust against the other one, which leads to a ``constructive effect,'' and identify the noise models which are responsible for decreasing average fidelity and the increment in fidelity deviation.

Criteria for continuous-variable quantum teleportation

Samuel L. Braunstein, Christopher A. Fuchs, H. J. Kimble

We derive an experimentally testable criterion for the teleportation of quantum states of continuous variables. This criterion is especially relevant to the recent experiment of Furusawa et al. where an input—output fidelity of 0.58 ± 0.02 was achieved for optical coherent stages. Our derivation demonstrates that fidelities greater than 1/2 could not have been achieved through the use of a classical channel alone; quantum entanglement was a crucial ingredient in the experiment.

Fidelity and security of quantum teleportation of squeezed coherent states in noisy Gaussian channels

Lavli Rana, Bhavesh Kumar Dadhich

In this paper, we investigate secure quantum teleportation (SQT) of squeezed coherent states in the presence of a noisy Gaussian environment. Unlike most previous studies that consider coherent states as the input to be teleported, we take squeezed coherent states as the information carriers and analyze how the squeezing of the input state influences the performance and security of the teleportation protocol. The quantum channel is modeled by a two-mode squeezed vacuum state shared between Alice and Bob, which interacts with a common squeezed thermal reservoir. The security of teleportation is ensured by simultaneously satisfying two conditions: a teleportation fidelity exceeding the classical limit [Formula: see text] and the existence of two-way quantum steering of the resource state. Using the covariance matrix formalism and the Lindblad master equation for open quantum systems, we study the time evolution of teleportation fidelity and Gaussian steering under the combined effects of dissipation, temperature and environmental squeezing. The results show that the squeezing of the input coherent state plays a significant role in modifying the robustness of secure quantum teleportation against environmental noise. In particular, for suitable parameter regimes, input-state squeezing can enhance the tolerance of the protocol to thermal fluctuations and de-coherence, extending the temporal range in which SQT is achievable. These findings highlight the importance of the choice of input states in continuous-variable quantum communication protocols and provide new insights for optimizing secure quantum teleportation in realistic noisy environments.
