Quantum Information Splitting by Using Asymmetric Multi-particle State

We propose schemes for quantum information splitting by using asymmetric multi-particle entangled state. Explicit protocols for the quantum information splitting of a single-qubit state and a two-qubit entangled state via asymmetric three-particle entangled state are illustrated. The four-particle asymmetric entangled state are also used as quantum channel to split the unknown two-qubit entangled state. We also consider the security against certain eavesdropping attacks.     

A Proposal of Telecloning for a Three-Particle Entangled?W?State

A 1→2 telecloning solution for an arbitrary three-particle entangled W state is proposed in which two four-particle entangled states are used as quantum channels. It is proposed that the three-particle W state can be telecloned based on the quantum teleportation and the local copying of entanglement, and the fidelity of each clone depends on the input state. This scheme can be generalized into the case of 1→N (N>2) telecloning of an arbitrary three-particle W state. Furthermore, another scheme for 1→N (N≥2) telecloning of an arbitrary n-particle (n≥4) W state is proposed, the multi-bit controlled-NOT (CNOT) gates and additional particles are needed in this case.

Probabilistic teleportation of an arbitrary three-particle state via a partial entangled four-particle state and a partial entangled pair

We present a scheme to probabilistically teleport an arbitrary and unknown three-particle state via a two-particle non-maximally entangled state and a four-particle non-maximally entangled state as the quantum channel. With the help of Bell-state measurements, an arbitrary three-particle state can be perfectly teleported if a receiver introduces a collective unitary transformation. All kinds of unitary transformations are given in greater detail. This scheme can be generalized to the teleportation of an arbitrary and unknown multiparticle state.     

Probabilistic Remote Preparation of a Three-Particle Entangled State via Two Different Non-maximally Entangled Channels

We present two schemes for preparing remotely a three-particle entangled state by two different quantum channels. In the first scheme, two partial three-particle entangled states are used as the quantum channels, while in the second scheme, three two-particle non-maximally entangled states are employed as the quantum channels. It is shown that the remote state preparation can be successfully realized with certain probability, for both two schemes, if a sender performs some projective measurements and a receiver adopts some appropriate unitary transformations. It is shown also that the successful probabilities of these two schemes are different.

利用单个三粒子最大GHZ态或两个EPR态隐形传送任意三粒子GHZ态

提出利用单个三粒子最大Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)态或两个Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR)态作为量子信道确定性隐形传送任意三粒子GHZ态的两个方案，并将方案推广至隐形传送任意n(n≥4)粒子GHZ态的情况.讨论了量子信道受噪声影响时隐形传态的保真度.研究发现，当作为量子信道的单个三粒子最大GHZ态受到噪声影响时，隐形传态的保真度仅与量子信道的纠缠度有关，而当作为量子信道的两个EPR态受到噪声影响时，隐形传态的保真度不仅与量子信道的纠缠度有关，还与待传送态的纠缠度有关.所提出的方案具有节省量子信道纠缠资源的特点. 关键词： 隐形传态 三粒子Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger态 量子逻辑门 保真度

Trojan Horse Attack Free Fault-Tolerant Quantum Key Distribution Protocols Using GHZ States

Recently, Yang and Hwang (Quantum Inf. Process. 13(3): 781–794, 19) proposed two fault-tolerant QKD protocols based on their proposed coding functions for resisting the collective noise, and their QKD protocols are free from Trojan horse attack without employing any specific detecting devices (e.g., photon number splitter (PNS) and wavelength filter). By using four-particle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state and four-particle GHZ-like state in their proposed coding functions, Yang and Hwang’s QKD protocols can resist each kind of the collective noise–collective-dephasing noise, collective-rotation noise. However, their proposed coding function can be improved by the utilization of three-particle GHZ state (three-particle GHZ-like state) instead of four-particle GHZ state (four-particle GHZ-like state) that will eventually reduce the consumption of the qubits. As a result, this study proposed the improved version of Yang and Hwang’s coding functions to enhance the qubit efficiency of their schemes from 20 % to 22 %.

Quantum Tasks with Non-maximally Quantum Channels via Positive Operator-Valued Measurement

By using a proper positive operator-valued measure (POVM), we present two new schemes for probabilistic transmission with non-maximally four-particle cluster states. In the first scheme, we demonstrate that two non-maximally four-particle cluster states can be used to realize probabilistically sharing an unknown three-particle GHZ-type state within either distant agent’s place. In the second protocol, we demonstrate that a non-maximally four-particle cluster state can be used to teleport an arbitrary unknown multi-particle state in a probabilistic manner with appropriate unitary operations and POVM. Moreover the total success probability of these two schemes are also worked out.

Efficient Symmetric Five-Party Quantum State Sharing of an Arbitrary <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-Qubit State

We present an efficient symmetric scheme for five-party quantum state sharing of an arbitrary m-qubit state with 2m three-particle entangled states. The implementations of this scheme only need to exploit the CNOT gate operations and the single-particle measurements, instead of the three-particle GHZ-state measurements, which makes it more convenient in a practical application than some previous schemes. In addition, its total efficiency can approach the maximal value in theory.

We propose a scheme for generating a genuine four-particle polarisation entangled state ︱χ00 that has many interesting entanglement properties and potential applications in quantum information processing. In our scheme, we use the weak cross-Kerr nonlinear interaction between field-modes and the non-demolition measurement method based on highly efficient homodyne detection, which is feasible under the current experiment conditions.     

Probabilistic Remote Preparation of a Four-Particle Entangled W State for the General Case and for All Kinds of the Special Cases

We present a protocol for probabilistic remote preparation of a four-particle entangled W state. The quantum channel is composed of two partial entangled four-particle cluster states. We calculate the total successful probability and total classical communication cost required for the general case and for all kinds of the special cases, respectively. It is shown that for two maximally entangled four-particle cluster states, such a scheme for the general case has the total successful probability of 25% and only consumes the total classical communication of 1 bit, while this scheme for the special cases under certain conditions can possess successful probability of 50% or 100%, the required classical communication will only be 2 bits or 4 bits. Meantime, we give in detail all unitary transformations for the general case and for all kinds of the special cases, respectively.
