Quantum Teleportation: Alice and Bob experiment revisited

Abstract

In this article, the authors have discussed the Alice and Bob experimental set-up for the quantum teleportation, giving a detailed step-by step mathematical explanation of each unit. Quantum teleportation of a qubit requires the creation of an entangled quantum state between the sender’s (Alice) and the receiver’s (Bob) shared quantum state/s. At the end of this experiment, actual measurements of the Alice’s share of quantum information are to be taken and shared with Bob via a classical communication channel. The teleportation is expected to open up a whole new regime of quantum communication, data encryption to be one of its applications.

Encrypted broadcast quantum teleportation

Rafika Rahmawati, Muhammad Taufiqi, Lila Yuwana +2 more

Abstract In this study, we propose an encrypted quantum teleportation broadcast scheme using a 6-qubit entangled channel and an encrypted quantum teleportation scheme with a controller via a 7-qubit entangled channel. The quantum state of Alice, to be transmitted, is first encrypted into two distinct states that satisfy certain conditions. As the main sender, Alice designates two agents to transmit encrypted states to two receivers. She shares a 6-qubit entangled state with each party and provides the receivers with a 1-bit classical information containing the chosen encryption. After the agents perform measurements on the corresponding orthogonal bases and send the results to the receivers, each receiver can reconstruct the original state sent by Alice. To enhance security for the receivers, the scheme introduces Alice as a controller. The receivers can reconstruct the original state only if Alice performs a measurement and shares her measurement outcome. The use of encryption ensures that even if an agent’s qubit is intercepted, the actual state remains secure. Alice, as the controller, can also terminate the transmission if a security threat is detected or she change her mind to finish the transmission. The teleportation performance depends on how the qubit is encrypted. For a specific input state used as an example, the protocol obtained a teleportation success probability of 0.9608.

On Achieving Superluminal Communication

Dhananjay P. Mehendale

What is proposed here is a simple modication in the quantum protocol [1] for achieving instantaneous teleportation of arbitrary quantum state from Alice to Bob even when Bob is several light years away. This modied quantum protocol is constructed by adding a step the in the celebrated quantum teleportation protocol [1]. It consists of the action of a unitary operator to be performed by Alice on the qubits in her possession before she does the Bell basis measurement. It is important to note that the existing quantum teleportation protocol [1] requires certain classical communication between the participants, Alice and Bob, and we are going to eliminate this classical communication through our modification. In the existing protocol [1] Alice requires sending the classical bits generated during her Bell basis measurement over a classical channel to Bob for Bob to use these classical bits to determine the exact recovery operation to be performed on the qubit(s) in his possession for creating the exactly identical copy of unknown quantum state that was with Alice and got destroyed during her Bell basis measurement. Alice cannot send the classical bits she obtained to Bob with the speed faster than that of light since it is the well known experimentally veried universal upper limit on the speed. We show that by incorporating suitable unitary operation to be performed by Alice on her qubits before the Bell basis measurement the requirement of the transmission of classical bits by Alice to Bob for the creation of the unknown quantum state by Bob at his place can be completely eliminated. Our modification in the teleportation protocols [1], [2] thus clearly demonstrates the enormous advantage of remaining in the quantum regime and avoiding the requirement of any classical communication for the teleportation of the quantum states.

Teleportation of a Quantum State

William J. Mullin

Teleportation here is a process by which a quantum state is transferred from one place to another, a bit analogous to the teleportation taking place in Star Trek. Alice (A) has particle 1 in a state φ (1) that she wants to transfer to Bob (B). A source sends one of a singlet pair of particles, particle 2, to A and the other, particle 3, to B. A does a Bell-state measurement on the 1–2 pair. A sends the result to B via normal communication methods, which tells B what transformation should be done on the particle B received, so that the state ends in the original φ (3). Experiments have confirmed the method. The chapter discusses the nature of the two-particle Bell states and how experimenter can measure such states. Teleportation, since it involves information transfer, may have applications in quantum computing.

Perfect teleportation with a partially entangled quantum channel

Xiang Chen, Yao Shen, Fulin Zhang

Quantum teleportation provides a way to transfer unknown quantum states from one system to another via an entangled state as a quantum channel without physical transmission of the object itself. The entangled channel, measurement performed by the sender (Alice), and classical information sent to the receiver (Bob) are three key ingredients in the procedure, which need to cooperate with each other. To study the relationship among the three parts, we propose a scheme for perfect teleportation of a qubit through a high-dimensional quantum channel in a pure state with two equal largest Schmidt coefficients. The scheme requires less entanglement of Alice's measurement but more classical bits than the original scheme via a Bell state. The two quantities increase with the entanglement of the quantum channel when its dimension is fixed and thereby can be regard as Alice's necessary capabilities to use the quantum channel. And the two capabilities appear complementary to each other.

Quantum teleportation and superdense coding

Anirban Pathak

The beauty of the quantum circuit lies in the fact that it can perform certain tasks which are impossible in the classical world. For example, consider teleportation and superdense coding. Teleportation is a quantum task in which an unknown quantum state is transmitted from a sender (Alice) to a spatially separated receiver (Bob) via an entangled quantum channel and with the help of some classical communications. Dense coding is another communication scheme in which if Alice and Bob share a prior entanglement then one of them can send n bits of classical information to the other by communicating m-qubits (m < n). Before we go into the technical details of these two schemes let us try to lucidly visualize the uniqueness of teleportation. Suppose Alice and Bob are spatially separated and Alice wants to send an unknown quantum state |ψ〉 = α|0〉 + β|1〉 to Bob. For some reason she is not allowed to send the state directly through a quantum channel. She cannot measure it and send the information to Bob because the moment she will try to measure the state, it will collapse either to |0〉 or to |1〉. But the state can be sent by using a simple quantum circuit (pre-shared entanglement) and some classical communications. In the process the unknown quantum state gets destroyed at Alice’s end and reappears at Bob’s end. The state never exists in the communication channel. This process is called quantum teleportation. The uniqueness of quantum teleportation will be clearer if we note that the Fax is not an example of teleportation because the original copy remains with the sender. Again a letter posted in a letter box is not an example of teleportation because the letter exists (travels) in its original form in the communication channel. In brief, there is no classical analogue of quantum teleportation. The same is true for dense coding. In this chapter we will describe these two unique quantum communication schemes and discuss their significance and applications.

EPR pairs of particles and quantum teleportation

Yue Zhang

Teleporting a quantum state,the sender Alice disassembles the entire informations into two parts: one purely classical information and the another purely non-classical information,then sends them to the receiver Bob via two different channels.Firstly,sending the purely non-classical part,the EPR pair which consists of two fermions with the spin of 1 2 here plays the key role in the teleportation,one EPR particle is given to Alice,while the other is given to Bob.Alice performs a complete measurement of the von Neumann type on the joint system consisting of the original particle and her EPR particle,this measurement performed in the four eigenstates of the Bell operator leads to collapse the wave packet of the joint wavefunction into the four correlated Bell bases.Through applying the appropriate unitary transformation to the state of his EPR particle Bob can reconstruct a replica of the original state destroyed in Alice's hand.Moreover,this Bell measurement produces two bits of classical information which is sent to Bob,a quantum teleportation is therefore completed.The paper studies the interior relation between EPR pairs of particles and the quantum teleportation.
