Quantum Secure Direct Communication with Four-Particle Genuine Entangled State and Dense Coding

A quantum secure direct communication scheme using dense coding is proposed. At first, the sender (Alice) prepares four-particle genuine entangled states and shares them with the receiver (Bob) by sending two particles in each entangled state to him. Secondly, Alice encodes secret information by performing the unitarytransformations on her particles and transmits them to Bob. Finally, Bob performs the joint measurements on his particles to decode the secret information. The two-step security test guarantees the security of communication.

A Theoretical Scheme for Multiparty Multi-particle State Sharing

A theoretical scheme for multiparty multi-particle state sharing is proposed. After she introduces auxiliary particles and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen （EPIC） pairs, the sender （Alice） performs Hadamard （14） gate operations and Controlled-NOT （CNOT） gate operations on them. Subsequently, the sender leaves one particle sequence and distributes the rest particles to the other participants. And then, the sender makes Bell-state measurements on her particles and publishes the measurement outcomes via the classical channel to realize the quantum state sharing among the others. Only the simple operations are used to realize quantum state sharing. The sender may increase or decrease the number of the participants by changing the number of the auxiliary particles.     

An efficient two-step quantum key distribution protocol with orthogonal product states

An efficient two-step quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol with orthogonal product states in the n\otimes n(n\geq3)Hilbert space is presented. In this protocol, the particles in the orthogonal product states form two particle sequences. The sender, Alice, first sends one sequence to the receiver, Bob. After Bob receives the first particle sequence, Alice and Bob check eavesdropping by measuring a fraction of particles randomly chosen. After ensuring the security of the quantum channel, Alice sends the other particle sequence to Bob. By making an orthogonal measurement on the two particle sequences, Bob can obtain the information of the orthogonal product states sent by Alice. This protocol has many distinct features such as great capacity, high efficiency in that it uses all orthogonal product states in distributing the key except those chosen for checking eavesdroppers.     

Quantum Teleportation of One-to-Many Using （n ＋ 1）-Particle Entanglement

In this paper, quantum teleportatlon of one-to-many using （n ＋1）-particle entanglement is presented. If the sender （Alice） wants to transmit an unknown quantum state to a distant receiver （Bob）, similar to the previous schemes, Alice performs Bell-state measurement on particles belonging to herself and informs the receiver the results through the classical channel. After that, it needs to perform the Hadamard operation on the other （n - 1） particles and measure them as well. With the aid of the measurement results, Bob can operate a corresponding unitary transformation on his particle to reconstruct the original state. Of course, the reconstruction may realize at either location of n, but it cannot realize at all locations at the same time.     

控制的量子隐形传态和控制的量子安全直接通信

我们提出了一个控制的量子隐形传态方案。在这方案中，发送方Alice 在监督者Charlie的控制下以他们分享的三粒子纠缠态作为量子通道将二能级粒子未知态的量子信息忠实的传给了遥远的接受方Bob。我们还提出了借助此传态的控制的量子安全直接通信方案。在保证量子通道安全的情况下， Alice直接将秘密信息编码在粒子态序列上，并在Charlie控制下用此传态方法传给Bob。Bob可通过测量他的量子位读出编码信息。由于没有带秘密信息的量子位在Alice 和Bob之间传送，只要量子通道安全， 这种通信不会泄露给窃听者任何信息， 是绝对安全的。这个方案的的特征是双方通信需得到第三方的许可。     

Probabilistic teleportation of an arbitrary GHZ-class state with a pure entangled two-particle quantum channel and its application in quantum state sharing

This paper presents a scheme for probabilistic teleportation of an arbitrary GHZ-class state with a pure entangled two-particle quantum channel. The sender Alice first teleports the coefficients of the unknown state to the receiver Bob, and then Bob reconstructs the state with an auxiliary particle and some unitary operations if the teleportation succeeds. This scheme has the advantage of transmitting much less particles for teleporting an arbitrary GHZ-class state than others. Moreover, it discusses the application of this scheme in quantum state sharing.     

Controlled Cyclic Remote Preparation of an Arbitrary Single-Qudit State by Using a Seven-Qudit Cluster State as the Quantum Channel

We present a protocol for controlled cyclic remote preparation of an arbitrary single-qudit state via a seven-qudit cluster state. In the protocol, Alice can help the remote agent Bob prepare an arbitrary single-qudit state, Bob can help the agent Charlie prepare an arbitrary single-qudit state and at the same time Charlie can help Alice prepare an arbitrary single-qudit state under the controller David’s control. Alice, Bob and Charlie first perform positive operator-valued measurement (POVM) on their entangled particles according to the information of the prepared state, then perform generalized X-basis measurement. The controller performs generalized X-basis measurement on his entangled particle. The arbitrary single-qudit states can be cyclic remote prepared under the controller’s control. The protocol is more convenient in application since it only requires single-particle measurement and single-particle unitary operations for controlled cyclic remote preparation of the single-qudit states.

Quantum Cyclic Controlled Teleportation of Unknown States with Arbitrary Number of Qubits by Using Seven-qubit Entangled Channel

A novel theoretical scheme is proposed to implement quantum cyclic controlled teleportation (QCYCT) of three unknown states by utilizing a seven-qubit entangled state as the quantum channel, where Alice can transmit an unknown m-qubit state to Bob, Bob can transmit an unknown n-qubit state to Candy and Candy can transmit an unknown t-qubit state to Alice under the control of the supervisor David. Only controlled-not (CNOT) operations, Bell-state measurements, a single-qubit measurement and appropriate unitary operations are needed in this scheme, which can be realized in experiment easily. The desired state of each communicator can be recovered deterministically by using auxiliary particles. The direction of the cyclic controlled teleportation can also be altered throughout changing the selection of the particle pairs to be measured of each communicator. Compared with the previous QCYCT schemes, the proposed scheme possesses higher intrinsic efficiency in most cases and can transfer as many qubits as the communicators desire.

Teleportation of an Arbitrary Two-qubit State *

A scheme to teleport an unknown two-qubit state from Alice (the sender) to Bob (the receiver) using two Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pairs is presented, each EPR pair being shared by both Alice and Bob. Firstly, Alice combines each of the two particles in the teleported state with an EPR particle and makes Bell state measurement on each combination. Then she transmits the outcomes of her measurements to Bob classically. According to Alice′s measurement results, Bob can perform appropriate unitary operations on his two EPR particles to retrieve the initial state.     

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.

In this paper, a new scheme of quantum information splitting (8QIS) by using five-qubit state and GHZ-state as quantum channel is proposed. The sender Alice performs Bell-state measurements (BSMs) on her qubit-pairs respectively,then tells her measurement result to the receivers Bob. If Bob wants to reconstruct the original states, he must cooperates with the controller Charlie, that Charlie performs two single particle measurement on his qubits and tells Bob the results. According to Alice’s and Bob’s results, Bob can reconstruct the initial state by applying appropriate unitary operation.

In this scheme, the legitimate user Alice and Bob can exchange their secret messages with the help of unitary operations, and each W state can carry two bits of secret messages. Almost all the emitted particle can be used to carry the secret message besides the decoy photons, the intrinsic efficiency for qubits approaches the value 100 %. By joining the decoy particle checking technique and the step-transmitting idea to ensure the safety and reliability of communication.

Bidirectional transfer of quantum information for unknown photons via cross-Kerr nonlinearity and photon-number-resolving measurement

We propose an arbitrary controlled-unitary(CU) gate and a bidirectional transfer scheme of quantum information(BTQI) for unknown photons.The proposed CU gate utilizes quantum non-demolition photon-number-resolving measurement based on the weak cross-Kerr nonlinearities(XKNLs) and two quantum bus beams;the proposed CU gate consists of consecutive operations of a controlled-path gate and a gathering-path gate.It is almost deterministic and is feasible with current technology when a strong amplitude of the coherent state and weak XKNLs are employed.Compared with the existing optical multi-qubit or controlled gates,which utilize XKNLs and homodyne detectors,the proposed CU gate can increase experimental realization feasibility and enhance robustness against decoherence.According to the CU gate,we present a BTQI scheme in which the two unknown states of photons between two parties(Alice and Bob) are mutually swapped by transferring only a single photon.Consequently,by using the proposed CU gate,it is possible to experimentally implement the BTQI scheme with a certain probability of success.
