Fidelity between Gaussian mixed states with quantum state quadrature variances

Abstract

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.

Fidelity with quadrature component variances for continuous-variable quantum teleportation

Hailong Zhang, Wende Liang, Kui Liu +2 more

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 of Gaussian Channels

Carlton M. Caves, Krzysztof Wódkiewicz

A noisy Gaussian channel is defined as a channel in which an input field mode is subjected to random Gaussian displacements in phase space. We introduce the quantum fidelity of a Gaussian channel for pure and mixed input states, and we derive a universal scaling law of the fidelity for pure initial states. We also find the maximum fidelity of a Gaussian channel over all input states. Quantum cloning and continuous-variable teleportation are presented as physical examples of Gaussian channels to which the fidelity results can be applied.

New formula for calculating the fidelity of teleportation and its applications

Fang Jia, Cunjin Liu, Yin-Quan Hu +1 more

Quantum teleportation plays an important role in quantum information science. In order to obtain the effect of quantum teleportation of a quantum state by using an entangled resource, the fidelity of teleporting the quantum state should be calculated. Braunstein and Kimble[Phys. Rev. Lett. 80 869 (1998)] derived a formula of calculating the fidelity of quantum teleportation for Gaussian entangled resource and any input state to be teleported. Then, the point is how to calculate the quantum teleportation fidelity for any entangled resource. In this paper, werealize this purpose by using the entangled state representation. First, we derive the Weyl expansion of any density operator by using the completeness relation between coherent state and P-representation. Then using the orthogonal property of entangled state representation and the traditional Kimble-Braunstein scheme of quantum teleportation, we further derive the mean density operator of the output state, which means that we establish the relation between the output density operator and the characteristic functions of the input state to be teleported and the entangled resources. The characteristic function of the output state is also derived which is in the concise form relating these two characteristic functions above. Then we further obtain a new formula for calculating the quantum teleportation fidelity for the coherent state input and any two-mode entangled resource. It is shown that the fidelity of teleportation can be easily calculated when the Q-function of the normally ordering form of entangled resource is known. This is a convenient way of obtaining the fidelity of teleportation. As its applications, some Gaussian and non-Gaussian entangled states are examined to teleport the coherent state, whose results are correct.

A limit formula for the quantum fidelity

Gaetana Spedalieri, Christian Weedbrook, Stefano Pirandola

Quantum fidelity is a central tool in quantum information, quantifying how much two quantum states are similar. Here we propose a limit formula for the quantum fidelity between a mixed state and a pure state. As an example of an application, we apply this formula to the case of multimode Gaussian states, achieving a simple expression in terms of their first and second-order statistical moments.

Experimental demonstration of quantum teleportation of a squeezed state

Nobuyuki Takei, Takao Aoki, Satoshi Koike +8 more

Quantum teleportation of a squeezed state is demonstrated experimentally. Due to some inevitable losses in experiments, a squeezed vacuum necessarily becomes a mixed state which is no longer a minimum uncertainty state. We establish an operational method of evaluation for quantum teleportation of such a state using fidelity and discuss the classical limit for the state. The measured fidelity for the input state is $0.85\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05$, which is higher than the classical case of $0.73\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04$. We also verify that the teleportation process operates properly for the nonclassical state input and its squeezed variance is certainly transferred through the process. We observe the smaller variance of the teleported squeezed state than that for the vacuum state input.
