Versatile and controlled quantum teleportation network

A quantum teleportation network involving multiple users is essential for future quantum internet.So far,controlled quantum teleportation has been demonstrated in a three-user network.However,versatile and controlled quantum teleportation network involving more users is in demand,which satisfies different combinations of users for practical requirements.Here we propose a highly versatile and controlled teleportation network that can switch among various combinations of different users.We use a single continuous-variable six-partite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger(GHZ)state to realize such a task by choosing the different measurement and feedback operations.The controlled teleportation network,which includes one sub-network,two sub-networks and three sub-networks,can be realized for different application of user combinations.Furthermore,the coherent feedback control(CFC)can manipulate and improve the teleportation performance.Our approach is flexible and scalable,and would provide a versatile platform for demonstrations of complex quantum communication and quantum computing protocols.

Quantum state protection from finite-temperature thermal noise with application to controlled quantum teleportation

We propose a quantum state protection scheme via quantum feedforward control combined with environment-assisted measurement to protect arbitrary unknown initial states from the finite-temperature thermal noise(FTTN).The main strategy is to transfer the quantum system to a noise-robust state by weak measurement and feedforward control before the noise channel.Then we apply the environment-assisted measurement on the noise channel to select our desired damped states that are invertible to the initial state.After the noise channel,the reversal operations are applied to restore the initial state.We consider the protection of a single-qubit system,derive the analytical expressions of the success probability and the fidelity,and analyze the influence of key parameters on the performance of the proposed scheme.Unlike previous studies,there is no trade-off between the fidelity and the success probability in the proposed scheme;hence one could maximize them separately.Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can greatly improve the fidelity of the quantum state with a certain success probability.Moreover,the proposed scheme is successfully applied to improving the fidelity of controlled quantum teleportation through two independent FTTN channels from the perspective of protecting the shared entanglement.

Non-Gaussian approach:Withstanding loss and noise of multi-scattering underwater channel for continuous-variable quantum teleportation

Underwater quantum communication plays a crucial role in ensuring secure data transmission and extensible quantum networks in underwater environments.However,the implementation of such applications encounters challenges due to the light attenuation caused by the complicated natural seawater.This paper focuses on employing a model based on seawater chlorophyll-a concentration to characterize the absorption and scattering of light through quantum channels.We propose a multi-scattering random channel model,which demonstrates characteristics of the excess noise in different propagation directions of communication links.Furthermore,we consider the fidelity of a continuous-variable quantum teleportation through seawater channel.To enhance transmission performance,non-Gaussian operations have been conducted.Numerical simulations show that incorporating non-Gaussian operations enables the protocol to achieve higher fidelity transmission or lower fidelity fading rates over longer transmission distances.

Improving the teleportation of quantum Fisher information under non-Markovian environment

Quantum teleportation is designed to send an unknown quantum state between two parties.In the perspective of remote quantum metrology,one may be interested in teleporting the information that is encoded by physical parameters synthesized by quantum Fisher information(QFI).However,the teleported QFI is often destroyed by the unavoidable interaction between the system and the environment.Here,we propose two schemes to improve the teleportation of QFI in the non-Markovian environment.One is to control the quantum system through the operations of weak measurement(WM)and corresponding quantum measurement reversal(QMR).The other is to modify the quantum system based on the monitoring result of the environment(i.e.,environment-assisted measurement,EAM).It is found that,in the non-Markovian environment,these two schemes can improve the teleportation of QFI.By selecting the appropriate strengths of WM and QMR,the environment noise can be completely eliminated and the initial QFI is perfectly teleported.A comprehensive comparison shows that the second scheme not only has a higher probability of success than the first one,but also has a significant improvement of the teleported QFI.

Optimal conclusive teleportation of a d-dimensional two-particle unknown quantum state

A conclusive teleportation protocol of a d-dimensional two-particle unknown quantum state using three d- dimensional particles in an arbitrary pure state is proposed. A sender teleports the unknown state conclusively to a receiver by using the positive operator valued measure（POVM） and introducing an ancillary qudit to perform the generalized Bell basis measurement, We calculate the optimal teleportation fidelity. We also discuss and analyse the reason why the information on the teleported state is lost in the course of the protocol,

Rabi Oscillations, Entanglement and Teleportation in the Anti-Jaynes-Cummings Model

This paper provides a scheme for generating maximally entangled qubit states in the anti-Jaynes-Cummings interaction mechanism, so called entangled anti-polariton qubit states. We demonstrate that in an initial vacuum-field, Rabi oscillations in a cavity mode in the anti-Jaynes-Cummings interaction process, occur in the reverse sense relative to the Jaynes-Cummings interaction process and that time evolution of entanglement in the anti-Jaynes-Cummings interaction process takes the same form as in the Jaynes-Cummings interaction process. With the generated anti-polariton qubit state as one of the initial qubits, we present quantum teleportation of an atomic quantum state by applying entanglement swapping protocol achieving an impressive maximal teleportation fidelity <img src="Edit_d5204c26-d504-4580-bc0d-7379086587a2.bmp" alt="" />.

Several teleportation schemes of an arbitrary unknown multi-particle state via different quantum channels

We first provide four new schemes for two-party quantum teleportation of an arbitrary unknown multi-particle state by using three-, four-, and five-particle states as the quantum channel, respectively. The successful probability and fidelity of the four schemes reach 1. In the first two schemes, the receiver can only apply one of the unitary transformations to reconstruct the original state, making it easier for these two schemes to be directly realized. In the third and fourth schemes, the sender can preform Bell-state measurements instead of multipartite entanglement measurements of the existing similar schemes, which makes real experiments more suitable. It is found that the last three schemes may become tripartite controlled teleportation schemes of teleporting an arbitrary multi-particle state after a simple modification. Finally, we present a new scheme for three-party sharing an arbitrary unknown multi-particle state. In this scheme, the sender first shares three three-particle GHZ states with two agents. After setting up the secure quantum channel, an arbitrary unknown multi-particle state can be perfectly teleported if the sender performs three Bell-state measurements, and either of two receivers operates an appropriate unitary transformation to obtain the original state with the help of other receiver＇s three single-particle measurements. The successful probability and fidelity of this scheme also reach 1. It is demonstrated that this scheme can be generalized easily to the case of sharing an arbitrary unknown multi-particle state among several agents.

Probabilistic teleportation of an arbitrary three-particle state

A scheme for teleporting an arbitrary and unknown three-particle state from a sender to either one of two receivers is proposed. The quantum channel is composed of a two-particle non-maximally entangled state and two three-particle non-maximally entangled W states. An arbitrary three-particle state can be perfectly teleported probabilistically if the sender performs three generalized Bell-state measurements and sends to the two receivers the classical result of these measurements, and either one of the two receivers adopts an appropriate unitary transformation conditioned on the suitable measurement outcomes of the other receiver. All kinds of unitary transformations are given in detail.

Teleportation attack on the QSDC protocol with a random basis and order

The quantum secure direct communication （QSDC） protocol with a random basis and order is analysed and an effective attack, i.e. teleportation attack, is presented. An eavesdropper can obtain half of the transmitted secret bits with the help of this special attack. It is shown that quantum teleportation can be employed to weaken the role of the order-rearrangement encryption at least in a certain circumstance. Meanwhile, a possible improvement on this protocol is proposed, which makes it secure against this kind of attack.

Teleportation of two-atom entangled state in resonant cavity quantum electrodynamics

An alternative scheme is presented for teleportation of a two-atom entangled state in cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED）. It is based on the resonant atom-cavity field interaction. In the scheme, only one cavity is involved, and the number of the atoms needed to be detected is decreased compared with the previous scheme. Since the resonant atom-cavity field interaction greatly reduces the interaction time, the decoherence effect can be effectively suppressed during the teleportation process. The experimental feasibility of the scheme is discussed. The scheme can easily be generalized to the teleportation of N-atom Greeninger-Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） entangled states. The number of atoms needed to be detected does not increase as the number of the atoms in the GHZ state increases.

Teleportation of an unknown bipartite state via non-maximally entangled two-particle state

In this paper a new scheme for teleporting an unknown entangled state of two particles is proposed. To weaken the requirement for the quantum channel, without loss of generality, two communicators only share a non-maximally entangled two-particle state. Teleportation can be probabilistically realized if sender performs Bell-state measurements and Hadamard transformation and receiver introduces two auxiliary particles, operates C-not operation, single-qubit measurements and appropriate unitary transformations. The probability of successful teleportation is determined by the smaller one among the coefficients＇ absolute values of the quantum channel.

Teleportation of arbitrary unknown two-atom state with cluster state via thermal cavity

This paper proposes a scheme for implementing the teleportation of an arbitrary unknown two-atom state by using a cluster state of four identical 2-level atoms as quantum channel in a thermal cavity. The two distinct advantages of the present scheme are： （i） The discrimination of 16 orthonormal cluster states in the standard teleportation protocol is transformed into the discrimination of single-atom states. Consequently, the discrimination difficulty of states is degraded. （ii） The scheme is insensitive to the cavity field state and the cavity decay for the thermal cavity is only virtually excited when atoms interact with it. Thus, the scheme is more feasible.

Digital Multi-Signature Based on the Controlled Quantum Teleportation

In this paper, a scheme which can be used in multi-user quantum digital signature is proposed. The scheme of signature and verification is based on the characters of GHZ （Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger） states and controlled quantum teleportation. Different from the digital signatures based on computational complexity, this scheme is unconditional secure, and compared to the former presented quantum signature scheme, it does not rely on an arbitrator to verify the signature and realize a message can be signed by multi-user together.

Entanglement diversion and quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states

The proposals on entanglement diversion and quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states are presented. In these proposals, the entanglement between two coherent states, ｜α〉 and ｜-α〉, with the same amplitude but a phase difference of π is utilized as a quantum channel. The processes of the entanglement diversion and the teleportation are achieved by using the 50/50 symmctric beam splitters, the phase shifters and the photodetectors with the help of classical information.

A new representation and probabilistic teleportation of an arbitrary and unknown N-particle state

A new representation of an arbitrary and unknown N-particle state is presented at first. As an application, a scheme for teleporting an arbitrary and unknown N-particle state is proposed when N pairs of two-particle non- maximally entangled states are utilized as quantum channels. After Alice （sender） makes Bell-state measurement on her particles, Bob （recipient） introduces an auxiliary particle and carries out appropriate unitary transformation on his particle and the auxiliary particle depending on classical information from Alice. Then, von Neumann measurement that confirms whether the teleportation succeeds or not is performed by Bob on the auxiliary particle. In order to complete the teleportation, another N-1 times operations need to be performed which are similar to the above ones. It can be successfully realized with a certain probability which is determined by the product of the smaller coefficients of non-maximally entangled pairs. All possible unitary transformations are given in detail.

Probabilistic teleportation of multi-particle partially entangled state

Utilizing the generalized measurement described by positive operator-wlued measure, this paper comes up with a protocol for teleportation of an unknown multi-particle entangled （GHZ） state with a certain probability. The feature of the present protocol is to weaken requirement for the quantum channel initially shared by sender and receiver. All unitary transformations performed by receiver are summarized into a formula. On the other hand, this paper explicitly constructs the efficient quantum circuits for implementing the proposed teleportation by means of universal quantum logic operations in quantum computation.

Quantum teleportation by entanglement swapping with trapped ions

An effective teleportation scheme for an unknown ionic internal state via trapped ions is proposed without joint Bell-state measurement （BSM）. In the constructed quantum channel process, we make use of entanglement swapping to avoid decrease in entanglement during the distributing of particles. Thus our scheme provides new prospects for quantum teleportatlon in a longer distance. The distinct advant.age of our scheme is insensitive to the heating of vibrational mode. Furthermore, our scheme has no any individual optical access, and the successful probability also can reach 1.

Bidirectional multi-qubit quantum teleportation in noisy channel aided with weak measurement

Recently,bidirectional quantum teleportation has attracted a great deal of research attention.However,existing bidirectional teleportation schemes are normally discussed on the basis of perfect quantum environments.In this paper,we first put forward a bidirectional teleportation scheme to transport three-qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger（GHZ） states based on controled-not（CNOT） operation and single-qubit measurement.Then,we generalize it to the teleportation of multi-qubit GHZ states.Further,we discuss the influence of quantum noise on our scheme by the example of an amplitude damping channel,then we obtain the fidelity of the teleportation.Finally,we utilize the weak measurement and the corresponding reversing measurement to protect the quantum entanglement,which shows an effective enhancement of the teleportation fidelity.

Thermal entanglement and teleportation in a three-qubit Heisenberg XXZ model with Dzyaloshinski-Moriya anisotropic antisymmetric interaction

This paper investigates the thermal pairwise entanglement of a three-qubit Heisenberg XXZ chain in the presence of the Dzyaioshinski-Moriya （DM） anisotropic antisymmetric interaction and quantum teleportation when using the Heisenberg chain as a channel. The entanglement dependences on the DM interaction and temperature are given in detail. It obtains the relation between the concurrence and average fidelity, and shows that the same concurrence can lead different average fidelities. Moreover, it finds the thermally entangled states which do not violate the Bell inequalities, and can still be used for quantum teleportation.

Teleportation of an Arbitrary Multipartite GHZ-Class State by One EPR Pair

We present a scheme for perfectly teleporting an arbitrary and unknown N-particle GHZ-class state from a sender to a receiver. We just need one quantum channel composed of two or three particles in the maximally entangled state. The sender performs one Bell-state measurement on two of her particles and N - 1 Hadamard operations and N - 1 yon Neumann measurements on the rest N - 1 particles. The receiver adopts one corresponding unitary transformation on his particles shared with the sender. After that, the receiver can obtain the original N-particle GHZ-class state by introducing N - 1 ancillary particles and carrying out N - 1 controlled-NOT operations. We also generalize the scheme to the case of controlled teleportation.
