Abstract In a local quantum network, multi-qubits in various entangled states might be distributed in different remote nodes due to some peculiar demands. In this paper we consider a seven-qubit entangled state in a given qubit distribution among three participants and study its capacity in quantum teleportation (QT). To be specific, we put forward three controlled QT schemes utilizing the state. In each scheme QT can be deterministically and bidirectionally realized between two participants with another as the controller.

Each of three nodes in a quantum network has two qubits. The total six qubits are in a maximally entangled state [Helwig et al., Phys. Rev. A 86, 052335 (2012)]. Using such an entangled state as quantum channel, we put forward three deterministic bidirectional quantum-controlled teleportation (BQCT) schemes. To be specific, BQCT can be realized between any two nodes in a deterministic manner with another as the control. Alternatively, the BQCT capacity of such state in the given qubit distribution is thus essentially revealed by virtue of the schemes.
A total of seven qubits are in a maximally entangled state. Using such an entangled state as quantum channel is based on the construction requirements of quantum long-distance communication [Pan et al., Nature 488, 185 (2012)]. Multi-party quantum channel (QC) should be studied. We put forward three deterministic bidirectional quantum controlled teleportation (BQCT) schemes. To be specific, BQCT can be realized between any two parties in a deterministic manner with another as the control. Alternatively, the BQCT capacity of such state in the given qubit distribution is thus essentially revealed by virtue of the schemes.
Abstract Several schemes for bidirectional controlled quantum teleportation (BCQT) of arbitrary single-qubit states have been proposed by utilizing five-qubit entangled states, six-qubit entangled state and seven-qubit entangled state as the quantum channels. In this paper, a generalization to BCQT of multi-qubit entangled states is presented. By using a five-qubit entangled state as the quantum channel, we propose a scheme for BCQT of certain class of multi-qubit entangled states in which two legitimate users exchange their unknown multi-qubit entangled state to each other with the help of a supervisor. Compared with previous BCQT (3 ↔ 3) scheme [2019 Int. J. Theor. Phys . 58 3594], our proposed BCQT (m ↔ n) scheme requires less consumption of quantum and classical resources, and possesses higher intrinsic efficiency. Also, the present BCQT scheme is more general and has less operation complexity.
In order to explore multi-directional quantum communication in a three-dimensional (3D) system, five-, seven- and [Formula: see text]-qutrit entangled states are constructed by 3D-Hadamard gates and 3D-controlled-NOT gates in this paper. Then a new scheme of controlled bidirectional quantum teleportation (QT) via five-qutrit entangled channel is proposed, where two observers can exchange their unknown single-qutrit states at the same time under the control of the supervisor. Along this mental, we propose a novel theoretical scheme to fulfil four-party controlled cyclic QT by using a seven-qutrit entangled state as the quantum channel, in which Alice can teleport an arbitrary unknown single-qutrit state to Bob, Bob can transmit an arbitrary single-qutrit state to Charlie, at the same time, Charlie can also teleport an arbitrary unknown single-qutrit state to Alice with the permission of the supervisor. In these schemes, only specific two-qutrit 3D-Bell state measurements, single-qutrit 3D-Z-basis measurements and suitable 3D-Weyl operators are needed, which can be implemented in physics easily. Moreover, the proposed four-party controlled cyclic scheme can be generalized into the case containing [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) observers by using a [Formula: see text]-qutrit entangled channel. Analysis shows that the success probability of our schemes can reach 1. Through detailed discussion, we find that the security of our schemes and the control power of the supervisors can be guaranteed, and the intrinsic efficiency of the proposed schemes is relatively high.
In this paper, we present a deterministic four-party quantum cyclic controlled teleportation (QCYCT) scheme, by using a multi-qubit partially entangled state as the quantum channel. In this scheme, Alice can teleport an arbitrary [Formula: see text]-qubit state to Bob, Bob can teleport an arbitrary [Formula: see text]-qubit state to Charlie and Charlie can teleport an arbitrary [Formula: see text]-qubit state to Alice under the control of the supervisor David. We utilize rotation gate, Hadamard gates and controlled-NOT (CNOT) gates to construct the multi-qubit partially entangled channel. Only Bell-state measurements, single-qubit von-Neumann measurement and proper unitary operations are required in this scheme, which can be realized in practice easily based on the present quantum experiment technologies. The direction of cyclic controlled teleportation of arbitrary multi-qubit states can also be changed by altering the quantum channel. Analysis demonstrates that the success probability of the proposed scheme can still reach 100% although the quantum channel is non-maximally entangled. Furthermore, the proposed four-party scheme can be generalized into the case involving [Formula: see text] correspondents, which is more suitable for quantum communication networks. We also calculate the intrinsic efficiency and discuss the security of the proposed scheme. Compared with the existing QCYCT schemes which realized cyclic controlled teleportation of arbitrary single-qubit states, specific two-qubit and three-qubit states, the proposed scheme is of general significance.
Multipartite entanglement is a resource for application in disparate protocols, of computing, communication and cryptography. In this paper, generation, characterisation and application of a genuine genuinely entangled seven-qubit resource state is studied. Theoretical schemes for quantum teleportation of arbitrary one, two and three qubits states, bidirectional teleportation of arbitrary two qubit states and probabilistic circular controlled teleportation as well as three schemes for undertaking tripartite quantum state sharing are presented.
