Abstract
Noisy entangled resource and non-standard teleportation operations result in imperfect teleportation. In this paper, we derive an explicit expression for the output states of imperfect teleportation processes, thereby establishing a correspondence between teleportation and quantum channels. This result offers a different insight into teleportation. Also, it enables us to derive an expression for the fidelity of teleportation. Our results analytically reveal the dependence of the output states and the fidelity on the entangled resource and teleportation operations. The Nielsen–Caves teleportation formalism is used in the derivation.
