Mixed state dense coding and its relation to entanglement measures

Abstract

Ideal dense coding protocols allow one to use prior maximal entanglement to send two bits of classical information by the physical transfer of a single encoded qubit. We investigate the case when the prior entanglement is not maximal and the initial state of the entangled pair of qubits being used for the dense coding is a mixed state. We find upper and lower bounds on the capability to do dense coding in terms of the various measures of entanglement and in terms of the average mutual distinguishability of the signal states.

Quantum dense coding using three qubits

Jose Luis Cereceda

We consider a situation in which two parties, Alice and Bob, share a 3-qubit system coupled in an initial maximally entangled, GHZ state. By manipulating locally two of the qubits, Alice can prepare any one of the eight 3-qubit GHZ states. Thus the sending of Alice's two qubits to Bob, entails 3 bits of classical information which can be recovered by Bob by means of a measurement distinguishing the eight (orthonormal) GHZ states. This contrasts with the 2-qubit case, in which Alice can prepare any of the four Bell states by acting locally only on one of the qubits.

Quantum Cost of Dense Coding of Noisy and Multiple Use of Bell Channels

Tianlang Xing

Dense coding is a basic protocol for quantum information transfer. We study the noisy and multi-use of quantum channels for dense coding protocols. For this purpose, we replace the standard channel, namely the EPR pair by a noisy two-qubit pure state. We construct the measurement Alice carries out to encode her message to be transferred to Bob. It turns out that the resulting states are not all orthogonal, and we propose a probability function for success transfer. We mathematically maximize the function in terms of the quantum measurements taken by Bob. We further develop the protocol to multi-use channels, and investigate the probability function for success transfer.
