Bidirectional controlled quantum teleportation of multi-qubit entangled states via five-qubit entangled state
Vikram Verma
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.
