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.

Controlled Remote Preparation of a Two-Qubit State via an Asymmetric Quantum Channel

I present a new scheme for probabilistic remote preparation of a general two-qubit state from a sender to either of two receivers.The quantum channel is composed of a partial entangled tripartite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state and a W-type state.I try to realize the remote two-qubit preparation by using the usual projective measurement and the method of positive operator-valued measure,respectively.The corresponding success probabilities of the scheme with different methods as well as the total classical communication cost required in this scheme are also calculated.

Criterion and flexibility of operation difficulty for perfect teleportation of arbitrary n-qutrit state with (n:n)-qutrit pure state

Under the preconditions that a (n:n)-qutrit pure state is taken as the quantum channel to teleport an arbitrary n-qutrit state and the sender is able to perform generalized-Bell-state measurements and publish the results, the necessary transformation operation in the receiver's site is worked out in terms of the technique of swapping states. A criterion on whether such quantum channel can be utilized for perfect teleportation is derived by virtue of the unitarity of the resultant transformation operator. Moreover, the flexibility between the measurement difficulty and the reconstruction difficulty is shown and discussed.

Quantum Secure Direct Communication and Quantum Sealed-Bid Auction with EPR Pairs

I present a new protocol for three-party quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) with a set ofordered M Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pairs.In the scheme, by performing two unitary operations and Bell statemeasurements, it is shown that the three legitimate parties can exchange their respective secret message simultaneously.Then I modify it for an experimentally feasible and secure quantum sealed-bid auction (QSBD) protocol.Furthermore, Ialso analyze the security of the protocol, and the scheme is proven to be secure against the intercept-and-resend attack,the disturbance attack and the entangled-and-measure attack.

Splitting Single-Photon Polarization State with Weak Cross–Kerr Nonlinearity

We propose a three-party scheme for quantum information splitting(QIS) of an arbitrary single-photon polarization state based on weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity combined with linear optics elements such as polarization beam splitters(PBSs) and half wave plates(HWPs). The scheme is generalized to the arbitrary-party case. With the help of quantum nondemolition(QND) measurements, our schemes can be accomplished in an almost deterministic way. The two schemes are feasible with the current technology.

Splitting Unknown Qutrit or Ququart States via Two-Qubit Partially Entangled States Channel

In this paper we propose two quantum information splitting (QIS) schemes respectively for splitting an unknown single-qutrit and single-ququart state via three pairs of two-qubit partially entangled state. The necessary measurements and operations are given detailedly and the success probabilities are worked out. The two schemes can be directly generalized to QIS of multi-qutrit and multi-ququart states by using Bell-states channel.
