Abstract

Entanglement is an important resource for various applications of quantum computation. Another important endeavor is to establish the role of entanglement in practical implementation where system of interest is affected by various kinds of noisy channels. Here, a single classical bit is used to send information under the influence of a noisy quantum channel. The entanglement content of quantum states is computed under noisy channels such as amplitude damping, phase damping, squeesed generalised amplitude damping, Pauli channels and various collective noise models on the protocols of quantum key distribution.

Entanglement-based quantum key distribution over noisy channels

Hao Shu, Chang-Yue Zhang, Yue-Qiu Chen +2 more

Quantum key distribution(QKD) is an important area in quantum information theory. There are two kinds of QKD protocols, one is so-called prepare-measure protocols and the other is entanglement-based protocols. For long-distance communications in a noisy environment, entangled-based protocols might be more reliable since they could be supplied by distilled procedures which protect them from noises. In this paper, entanglement-based QKD over certain noisy channels are discussed. We give schemes against collective noises, including collective dephasing(CD) and collective rotation(CR), Pauli noises, amplitude damping(AD) noises, phase damping(PD) noises and mixtures of them. Our discussions are in a direction about how to implement a QKD protocol over noisy channels as in a noiseless channels with no errors, in theoretical. Also, we analyse the efficiency of our schemes, demonstrating that they could be more efficient than the standard entanglement-based QKD scheme.

The role of noisy channels in quantum teleportation

Sodeif Ahadpour, Фороузан Мирмасоуди

In quantum information theory, effects of quantum noise on teleportation are undeniable. Hence,we investigate the effect of noisy channels including amplitude damping, phase damping, depolarizing and phase ip on the teleported state between Alice and Bob where they share an entangled state by using atom-eld interaction state. We analyze the delity and quantum correlations as a function of decoherence rates and time scale of a state to be teleported. We observe that the average delityand quantum correlations accurately depend on types of noise acting on quantum channels. It is found that atom-eld interaction states are affected by amplitude damping channel are more useful for teleportation than when the shared qubites are affected by noisy channels such as AD channel and phase ip. We also observe that if the quantum channels is subject to phase ip noise, the average delity reproduces initial quantum correlations to possible values. On the other hand,not only all the noisy quantum channels do not always destroy average delity but also they can yield the highest delity in noisy conditions. In the current demonstration, our results provide that the average delity can have larger than 2/3 in front of the noise of named other channels with increasing decoherenc strength. Success in quantum states transfer in the present noise establishes the important of studing noisy channels.

Quantum Communication Stability and the Evolution of Local Quantum Uncertainty under Noisy Channels

Hui Li

This study calculates the evolution of local quantum uncertainty (LQU) in open quantum systems under various noise conditions, including amplitude damping, depolarizing, phase damping, and their combinations. Using the operator-sum representation, we analyze the behavior of LQU for a quantum state and reveal distinct patterns of LQU changes under different noise types. Our results show that while quantum entanglement often experiences sudden death, LQU exhibits more resilience, with abrupt changes observed under specific noise combinations. Notably, we find that phase damping noise, which induces random phase fluctuations without energy loss, leads to unique behaviors in LQU. This work provides novel insights into the robustness of quantum states against noise, highlighting the importance of distinguishing between different noise mechanisms in quantum information processing. Our findings contribute to the development of strategies for mitigating noise effects in quantum communication and computing.

Effects of quantum noises on χ state-based quantum steganography protocol

Zhiguo Qu, Shengyao Wu, Le Sun +2 more

Since the good application of quantum mechanism in the field of communication, quantum secure communication has become a research hotspot. The existing quantum secure communication protocols usually assume that the quantum channel is noise-free. But the inevitable quantum noise in quantum channel will greatly interferes the transmission of quantum bits or quantum states, seriously damaging the security and reliability of the quantum system. This paper analyzes and discusses the performance of a χ state based steganography protocol under four main quantum noises, i.e., Amplitude Damping (AD), Phase damping (Phs), Bit Flip (BF) and Depolarizing (D). The results show that the protocol is least affected by amplitude damping noise when only the sender's first transmission in quantum channel is affected by quantum noise. Then, we analyze the performance of the protocol when both the sender's two transmissions are affected by quantum noise, and find that the specific combination of different noises will increase the performance of the protocol in quantum noisy channel. This means that an extra quantum noise can be intentionally added to quantum channel according to the noise intensity, so that the protocol can improve performance under the influence of quantum noises. Finally, the detailed mathematical analysis proves the conclusions.

Entanglement Dynamics in Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum Systems

Dr. Ruman Singh

The advent of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices has not only opened up new possibilities to studying quantum computational benefits, but it has also presented new challenges associated with noise and short coherence times. Entanglement is one of the inherent resources that can be used to perform quantum computation and implement the performance and reliability of quantum algorithms. This paper looks at entanglement dynamics in NISQ machines subjected to natural noises. The study focuses on the problem of examining the role of various noise channels in the creation, dynamics, and decay of the entanglement during quantum operations, such as depolarizing, amplitude damping, and phase damping. The study is based on theoretical modeling and numerical simulations of multi-qubit quantum circuits to determine the stability of entangled states with respect to circuit depth and intensity of noise. Concurrence and von Neumann entropy are examples of entanglement measures that are used to characterize correlations between qubits as well as to trace the dynamics of these correlations across computational interactions. The results show that noise has major impacts on entanglement distribution, which tends to cause rapid decays in highly entangled states with increase in circuit complexity. The findings, however, also show that there are some circuit architectures and error-mitigation schemes that can somewhat sustain entanglement with moderate levels of noise. The paper also emphasizes the relevance of minimalizing sequence of gates, and reduced circuit depth in an effort to preserve useful entanglement in present-day quantum hardware. These observations help in understanding the behaviour of quantum correlations better in real world quantum devices and provide a way of developing more resilient quantum algorithms that would work on NISQ systems. In general, the article offers a systematic view on entanglement behavior in disordered quantum systems and highlights its value in the development of quantum computing applications in the near term.

Complexity analysis of quantum teleportation via different entangled channels in the presence of noise

Deepak Singh, Sanjeev Kumar, Bikash K. Behera

Abstract Quantum communication is an integral part of quantum computing, where teleportation of a quantum state has gained significant attention from researchers. Many teleportation schemes have been introduced in the recent past. In this study, the authors compare the teleportation of a single‐qubit message among different entangled channels such as the two‐qubit Bell channel, three‐qubit GHZ channel, two/three‐qubit cluster states, a highly entangled five‐qubit state (Brown et al.) and the six‐qubit state (Borras et al.). The authors calculate and compare the quantum costs for these channels. The authors also study the effects of six noise models: bit‐flip noise, phase‐flip noise, bit‐phase‐flip noise, amplitude damping, phase damping and depolarising error. These noise models may affect the communication channel used for teleportation. An investigation of the variation of the initial state's fidelity is performed for the teleported state in the presence of the noise model. It is observed that the fidelity decreases in all the entangled channels as the noise parameter η increases in the range [0, 0.5] for all the noise models. The fidelity shows an upward trend in the Bell, GHZ and three‐qubit cluster state channels, as η varies in the range [0.5, 1.0] for all the noise models. However, in the rest of the three channels, the fidelity substantially decreases in the case of amplitude damping, phase damping and depolarising noise, and even it reaches zero for η = 1 in Brown et al. and Borras et al. channels.
