Schemes for Hybrid Bidirectional Controlled Quantum Communication via Multi-qubit Entangled States

We present two schemes for hybrid bidirectional controlled quantum communication (HBCQC) via six- and nine-qubit entangled states as the quantum channel, respectively. In these schemes, two distant parties, Alice and Bob are not only senders but also receivers, and Alice wants to teleport an unknown single-qubit state to Bob, at the same time, Bob wishes to help Alice remotely prepares an arbitrary single- and two- qubit state, respectively. It is shown that, only if the two senders and the controller collaborate with each other, the HBCQC can be completed successfully. We demonstrate, in our both schemes, the total success probability of the HBCQC can reach 1, that is, the schemes are deterministic.     

Bidirectional Controlled Quantum Communication by Using a Seven-Qubit Entangled State

We propose a protocol for bidirectional controlled quantum communication by using a seven-qubit entangled state. In our protocol, Alice can teleport an arbitrary unknown two-qubit state to Bob, at the same time Bob can help Alice remotely prepares an arbitrary known single-qubit state. It is shown that, with the help of the controller Charlie, the total success probability of our protocol can reach 100%.     

Deterministic Controlled Remote State Preparation of Real-Parameter Multi-Qubit States via Maximal Slice States

By exploiting three-qubit entangled states and appropriate measurement basis, we propose efficient protocols for deterministic controlled remote state preparation of arbitrary real-parameter multi-qubit states, in which the maximal slice states are used as quantum channel. The successful probability of our schemes can reach up to 100% by using multi-qubit mutually orthogonal measurement basis without the introduction of auxiliary particles. Based on the implementation schemes for preparing arbitrary two- and three-qubit states with real parameters, we have derived the controlled remote state preparation protocols for arbitrary real-parameter multi-qubit states.

     

Deterministic Joint Remote Preparation of an Arbitrary Two-Qubit State Using the Cluster State

Recently, deterministic joint remote state preparation (JRSP) schemes have been proposed to achieve 100% success probability. In this paper, we propose a new version of deterministic JRSP scheme of an arbitrary two-qubit state by using the six-qubit cluster state as shared quantum resource. Compared with previous schemes, our scheme has high efficiency since less quantum resource is required, some additional unitary operations and measurements are unnecessary. We point out that the existing two types of deterministic JRSP schemes based on GHZ states and EPR pairs are equivalent.     

Efficient scheme for remote preparation of arbitrary n-qubit equatorial states

Recently,a scheme for deterministic remote preparation of arbitrary multi-qubit equatorial states was proposed by Wei et al.[Quantum Inf.Process.1770(2018)].It is worth mentioning that the construction of mutual orthogonal measurement basis plays a key role in quantum remote state preparation.In this paper,a simple and feasible remote preparation of arbitrary n-qubit equatorial states scheme is proposed.In our scheme,the success probability will reach unit.Moreover,there are no coefficient constraint and auxiliary qubits in this scheme.It means that the success probabilities are independent of the coefficients of the entangled channel.The advantage of our scheme is that the mutual orthogonal measurement basis is devised.To accomplish the quantum remote state preparation(RSP)schemes,some new sets of mutually orthogonal measurement basis are introduced.     

Asymmetric Controlled Bidirectional Remote State Preparation by Using a Ten-qubit Entangled State

We present a novel scheme for asymmetric controlled bidirectional remote state preparation (ACBRSP) with complex coefficients via a ten-qubit entangled state as the quantum channel. In this scheme, two distant parties, Alice and Bob are not only senders but also receivers, and Alice wants to remotely prepare a single-qubit state at Bob’s site, at the same time, Bob wishes to help Alice remotely prepares an arbitrary two-qubit entangled state. It is shown that, only if the two senders and the controller collaborate with each other, the ACBRSP can be completed successfully. We demonstrate that the total success probability of the ACBRSP in this scheme can reach 1, that is, the scheme is deterministic.

Efficient schemes of joint remote preparation with a passive receiver via EPR pairs

Novel schemes are put forward to execute the joint remote preparation of an arbitrary two-qubit state with a passive receiver via EPR pairs as the entangled channel. Compared with the previous protocols, the required multi-particle measurement is simplified and the classical communication cost is reduced. When the number of senders increases, the advantage is more evident. It means that the proposed schemes are more efficient in practice.     

Deterministic joint remote state preparation of arbitrary single- and two-qubit states

In this paper, two novel schemes for deterministic joint remote state preparation(JRSP) of arbitrary single- and twoqubit states are proposed. A set of ingenious four-particle partially entangled states are constructed to serve as the quantum channels. In our schemes, two senders and one receiver are involved. Participants collaborate with each other and perform projective measurements on their own particles under an elaborate measurement basis. Based on their measurement results,the receiver can reestablish the target state by means of appropriate local unitary operations deterministically. Unit success probability can be achieved independent of the channel's entanglement degree.     

Two Forms Schemes of Deterministic Remote State Preparation for Four-Qubit Cluster-Type State

Two deterministic schemes are put forward to preparing an arbitrary four-qubit cluster-type state remotely by using two Bell states as quantum channel. The coefficients of the prepared states can be not only real, but also complex. To accomplish the schemes, we introduce some novel sets of ingenious measurement basis vectors. Especially, for complex coefficients case, we give two different forms schemes. The receiver will reconstruct the initial state by means of some appropriate unitary operations. The outstanding advantage of the present schemes is that the success probability in all the considered remote state preparation (RSP) can reach 1.

     

Schemes for Remotely Preparing a Six-Particle Entangled Cluster-Type State

By constructing some useful measurement bases, we put forward two novel schemes via different entanglement resources to realize remote preparation of a six-particle entangled cluster-type state with high probabilities. It is shown that through a three-particle projective measurement and two-step two-particle projective measurement under the novel sets of mutually orthogonal basis vectors, the original state can be prepared with the probability 50 % and 100 %, respectively. And for the first scheme, the special cases of the prepared state that the success probability reaches up to 100 % are discussed by the permutation group. Compared with the previous proposal, the success probabilities of the proposed schemes are greatly improved. Furthermore, the present schemes are extended to the non-maximally entangled quantum channel, and the classical communication costs are calculated.

Faithful Transfer Arbitrary Pure States with Mixed Resources

In this paper, we show that some special mixed quantum resource experience the same property of pure entanglement such as Bell state for quantum teleportation. It is shown that one mixed state and three bits of classical communication cost can be used to teleport one unknown qubit compared with two bits via pure resources. The schemes are easily implement with model physical techniques. Moreover, these resources are also optimal and typical for faithfully remotely prepare an arbitrary qubit, two-qubit and three-qubit states with mixed quantum resources. Our schemes are completed as same as those with pure quantum entanglement resources except only 1 bit additional classical communication cost required. The success probability is independent of the form of the mixed resources.     

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.     

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.     

Teleportation of an arbitrary three—particle state

We propose two schemes for teleporting an arbitrary three-particle state.In the first scheme,a two-particle state and a three-particle entangled state (both non-maximally entangled states)are used as quantum channels,while in the second scheme,three non-mnaximally entangled particle pairs are employed as quantum channels.We show that teleportation can be successfully realized with certain probability if a receiver adopts some appropriate unitary transformations.Their success probabilities and the classical communication costs are different.     

Controlled remote preparation of an arbitrary four-qubit cluster-type state

Two schemes are proposed to realize the controlled remote preparation of an arbitrary four-qubit cluster-type state via a partially entangled channel. We construct ingenious measurement bases at the sender's and the controller's locations, which play a decisive role in the proposed schemes. The success probabilities can reach 50% and 100%, respectively. Compared with the previous proposals, the success probabilities are independent of the coefficients of the entangled channel.     

Quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping of electron spins in superconducting hybrid structures

We present schemes for quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping of electronic spin states in hybrid superconductor–normal-metal systems. The proposed schemes employ subgap transport whereby the lowest order processes involve Cooper pair-electron and double Cooper-pair cotunneling in quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping protocols, respectively. The competition between elastic cotunneling and Cooper-pair splitting results in the success probability of 25% in both cases. Described implementations of these protocols are within reach of present-day experimental techniques.
