Improved quantum state transfer via quantum partially collapsing measurements

In this work, we present a general scheme to improve quantum state transfer (QST) by taking advantage of quantum partially collapsing measurements. The scheme consists of a weak measurement performed at the initial time on the qubit encoding the state of concern and a subsequent quantum reversal measurement at a desired time on the destined qubit. We determine the strength q_r$q_r$ of the post quantum reversal measurement as a function of the strength p$p$ of the prior weak measurement and the evolution time t$t$ so that near-perfect QST can be achieved by choosing p$p$ close enough to 1, with a finite success probability, regardless of the evolution time and the distance over which the QST takes place. The merit of our scheme is twofold: it not only improves QST, but also suppresses the energy dissipation, if any.
