Experimental architecture of joint remote state preparation

Motivated by some previous joint remote preparation schemes, we first propose some quantum circuits and photon circuits that two senders jointly prepare an arbitrary one-qubit state to a remote receiver via GHZ state. Then, by constructing KAK decomposition of some transformation in SO(4), one quantum circuit is constructed for jointly preparing an arbitrary two-qubit state to the remote receiver. Furthermore, some deterministic schemes of jointly preparing one-qubit and two-qubit states are presented. Besides, the proposed schemes are extended to multi-sender and the partially entangled quantum resources.     

Multiparty-controlled joint remote state preparation

In this work, we present a novel and efficient information-processing way, multiparty-controlled joint remote state preparation (MCJRSP), to transmit quantum information from many senders to one distant receiver via the control of many agents in a network. We firstly put forward a scheme regarding MCJRSP for an arbitrary single-particle state via Greenberg–Horne–Zeilinger entangled states, and then extend to generalize an arbitrary two-particle state scenario. Notably, different from conventional joint remote state preparation, the desired states cannot be recovered but all of agents collaborate together. Besides, both successful probability and classical information cost are worked out, the relations between success probability and the employed entanglement are revealed, the case of many-particle states is generalized briefly, and the experimental feasibility of our schemes is analysed via an all-optical framework at last. And we argue that our proposal might be of importance to long-distance communication in prospective quantum networks.     

Asymmetric bidirectional controlled remote preparation of an arbitrary four-qubit cluster-type state and a single-qubit state

In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for asymmetric bidirectional controlled remote state preparation (ABCRSP) 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 prepare an arbitrary four-qubit cluster-type entangled state. It is shown that only if the two senders and the controller collaborate with each other, the ABCRSP can be completed successfully. We demonstrate that the total success probability of the ABCRSP in this scheme can reach 1, that is, the scheme is deterministic.     

Quantum state sharing of an arbitrary three-qubit state by using three sets of W-class states

A new application of the W-class state for quantum state sharing (QSTS) of an arbitrary three-qubit state with a certain probability is presented explicitly. We show that three sets of W-class states can be used to realize the QSTS of an arbitrary three-qubit state involving Bell-state measurement, single-qubit measurement and one high dimensional unitary operation. The performance demonstrates that our scheme can considerably reduce the difficulty of physical implementation.     

Deterministic joint remote preparation of arbitrary two- and three-qubit entangled states

We present several schemes for joint remote preparation of arbitrary two- and three-qubit entangled states with complex coefficients via two and three GHZ states as the quantum channel, respectively. In these schemes, two senders (or N senders) share the original state which they wish to help the receiver to remotely prepare. To complete the JRSP schemes, some novel sets of mutually orthogonal basis vectors are introduced. It is shown that, only if two senders (or N senders) collaborate with each other, and perform projective measurements under suitable measuring basis on their own qubits, respectively, the receiver can reconstruct the original state by means of some appropriate unitary operations. The advantage of the present schemes is that the success probability in all the considered JRSP can reach 1.     

Quantum broadcast scheme and multi-output quantum teleportation via four-qubit cluster state

In this paper, two theoretical schemes of the arbitrary single-qubit states via four-qubit cluster state are proposed. One is three-party quantum broadcast scheme, which realizes the broadcast among three participants. The other is multi-output quantum teleportation. Both allow two distant receivers to simultaneously and deterministically obtain the arbitrary single-qubit states, respectively. Compared with former schemes of an arbitrary single-qubit state, the proposed schemes realize quantum multi-cast communication efficiently, which enables Bob and Charlie to obtain the states simultaneously in the case of just knowing Alice’s measurement results. The proposed schemes play an important role in quantum information, specially in secret sharing and quantum teleportation.     

A highly efficient scheme for joint remote preparation of multi-qubit W state with minimum quantum resource

We present a highly efficient scheme for perfect joint remote preparation of an arbitrary \( 2^{n} \)-qubit W state with minimum quantum resource. Both the senders Alice and Bob intend to jointly prepare one \( 2^{n} \)-qubit W state for the remote receiver Charlie. In the beginning, they help the remote receiver Charlie to construct one n-qubit intermediate state which is closely related to the target \( 2^{n} \)-qubit W state. Afterward, Charlie introduces auxiliary qubits and applies appropriate operations to obtain the target \( 2^{n} \)-qubit W state. Compared with previous schemes, our scheme requires minimum quantum resource and least amount of classical communication. Moreover, our scheme has a significant potential for being adapted to remote state preparation of other special states.     

Joint remote preparation of four-qubit cluster-type states with multiparty

For N+1-sender independently share the classical knowledge of a quantum state, a new scheme for joint remote preparation of four-particle cluster-type states using only two partially two-particle entangled states as quantum channel is presented. In our scheme, each of the senders is just required to perform a bipartite projective measurement, and the receiver adopts some appropriate unitary operation to obtain the original state with certain probability. We also discuss four type information-splitting methods which can make the receiver obtain the unknown state. The classical communication cost is also calculated.     

Deterministic controlled bidirectional remote state preparation via a six-qubit entangled state

In this paper, we presented a controlled bidirectional remote state preparation scheme which used the six-qubit entangled state as quantum channel. In our scheme, Alice and Bob can prepare simultaneously an arbitrary single-qubit state in each other’s place with the control of the supervisor Charlie. The success probability for our scheme reaches unit. Furthermore, we analyze the expression of quantum channel for controlled bidirectional remote state preparation. Finally, we discuss the security of our scheme, the detailed security analysis shows that the supervisor Charlie’s control can greatly improve the security of our scheme.

     

基于EPR对的任意四粒子Cluster类态全概率联合远程制备

采用4个EPR(Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen)对作为量子信道,提出一种新的全概率联合远程制备任意四粒子Cluster类态方案。在这个新的方案中,一个制备者执行四粒子投影测量,另一个制备者对手中的粒子执行二粒子投影测量。然后,接收者对手中二粒子进行某种幺正操作,并分别对两个辅助粒子进行受控非门操作,从而最终得到需要制备的Cluster类态。与其他制备任意四粒子Cluster类态的全概率制备方案相比,所提协议效率较高,而且在实验上更经济可行。     

Four-party deterministic operation sharing with six-qubit cluster state

An efficient four-party scheme is proposed for remotely sharing an arbitrary single-qubit operation by using a six-qubit cluster state as quantum channel and local operation and classical communication. Some specific discussions are made, including the issues of the scheme determinacy, the sharer symmetry, the scheme security and the essential role of quantum channel as well as the current experimental feasibility.     

Nonlocal quantum information in bipartite quantum error correction

We show how to convert an arbitrary stabilizer code into a bipartite quantum code. A bipartite quantum code is one that involves two senders and one receiver. The two senders exploit both nonlocal and local quantum resources to encode quantum information with local encoding circuits. They transmit their encoded quantum data to a single receiver who then decodes the transmitted quantum information. The nonlocal resources in a bipartite code are ebits and nonlocal information qubits, and the local resources are ancillas and local information qubits. The technique of bipartite quantum error correction is useful in both the quantum communication scenario described above and in fault-tolerant quantum computation. It has application in fault-tolerant quantum computation because we can prepare nonlocal resources offline and exploit local encoding circuits. In particular, we derive an encoding circuit for a bipartite version of the Steane code that is local and additionally requires only nearest-neighbor interactions. We have simulated this encoding in the CNOT extended rectangle with a publicly available fault-tolerant simulation software. The result is that there is an improvement in the “pseudothreshold” with respect to the baseline Steane code, under the assumption that quantum memory errors occur less frequently than quantum gate errors.     

多跳远程量子态制备

多跳远程量子态制备在量子无线网络、长距离量子信息传输中有重要价值。融合多跳隐形传态和远程态制备的思想，提出一个多跳远程任意单量子态制备协议。在每一跳中都以三粒子非最大纠缠GHz态为量子信道，利用远程态制备方法，原始单量子态通过中间节点逐跳被制备，每跳恢复的态被用着下一跳被制备的态。通过对单跳和两跳制备的分析，获得了[n]跳制备后方案成功的概率。在协议中，仅涉及到Pauli算子、单粒子测量和前馈策略，因此该方案易于物理实现。     

Cyclic joint remote state preparation in noisy environment

We propose a scheme of cyclic joint remote state preparation for three sides, which takes advantage of three GHZ states to compose product state as quantum channel. Suppose there are six legitimate participants, says Alice, Bob, Charlie, David, Emma and Fred in the scheme. It can be shown that Alice and David can remotely prepare a single-qubit state on Bob’s side; meanwhile, Bob and Emma can remotely prepare a desired quantum state on Charlie’s side, and Charlie and Fred can also remotely prepare a single-qubit state on Alice’s side at the same time. Further, it can be achieved in the opposite direction of the cycle by changing the quantum channel. Based on it, we generalize this protocol to \(N (N\ge 3)\) sides utilizing three multi-qubit GHZ-type states as quantum channel. Therefore, the scheme can achieve cyclic joint remote state preparation, which remotely prepares N states in quantum network with N-party, simultaneously. In addition, we consider that the effect of amplitude-damping noise of the initial states is prepared in four different laboratory. Clearly, we use fidelity to describe how much information has been lost in the cyclic process. Our investigation about the effect of noise shows that the preparing of the initial state in different laboratories will affect the loss of information.     

Hierarchical joint remote state preparation in noisy environment

A novel scheme for quantum communication having substantial applications in practical life is designed and analyzed. Specifically, we have proposed a hierarchical counterpart of the joint remote state preparation (JRSP) protocol, where two senders can jointly and remotely prepare a quantum state. One sender has the information regarding amplitude, while the other one has the phase information of a quantum state to be jointly prepared at the receiver’s port. However, there exists a hierarchy among the receivers, as far as powers to reconstruct the quantum state are concerned. A 5-qubit cluster state has been used here to perform the task. Further, it is established that the proposed scheme for hierarchical JRSP (HJRSP) is of enormous practical importance in critical situations involving defense and other sectors, where it is essential to ensure that an important decision/order that can severely affect a society or an organization is not taken by a single person, and once the order is issued, all the receivers do not possess an equal right to implement it. Further, the effect of different noise models (e.g., amplitude damping (AD), phase damping (PD), collective noise and Pauli noise models) on the HJRSP protocol proposed here is investigated. It is found that in AD and PD noise models a higher-power agent can reconstruct the quantum state to be remotely prepared with higher fidelity than that done by the lower-power agent(s). In contrast, the opposite may happen in the presence of collective noise models. We have also proposed a scheme for probabilistic HJRSP using a non-maximally entangled 5-qubit cluster state.     

利用纠缠态实现任意N粒子量子态的秘密共享

针对量子秘密共享的量子态局限于最大纠缠态的问题,提出一种实现任意N位量子态的秘密共享方案。该方案使用纠缠态作为量子信道,首先发送方对粒子进行Bell基测量,然后接收方Bob或Charlie使用单粒子测量,最后参与者根据Alice和单粒子测量得到的结果,选用合适的联合幺正变换对量子态进行相应的变换,这样可以实现任意N粒子量子态的秘密共享。该方案能够抵御外部窃听者和内部不诚实参与者的攻击,安全性分析表明此方案是安全的。     

Two efficient schemes for probabilistic remote state preparation and the combination of both schemes

We propose two novel schemes for probabilistic remote preparation of an arbitrary quantum state with the aid of the introduction of auxiliary particles and appropriate local unitary operations. The first new proposal could be used to improve the total successful probability of the remote preparation of a general quantum state, and the successful probability is twice as much as the one of the preceding schemes. Meanwhile, one can make use of the second proposal to realize the remote state preparation when the information of the partially entangled state is only available for the sender. This is in contrast to the fact that the receiver must know the non-maximally entangled state in previous typical schemes. Hence, our second proposal could enlarge the applied range of probabilistic remote state preparation. Additionally, we will illustrate how to combine these novel proposals in detail, and our results show that the union has the advantages of both schemes. Of course, our protocols are implemented at the cost of the increased complexity of the practical realizations.     

Multi-party quantum state sharing via various probabilistic channels

We present a new scheme to share an arbitrary multi-qubit state between n agents via various probabilistic channels under cooperation of m?1 controllers with a certain probability. Compared with existing ones in this literature, our scheme involves various probabilistic channels, which weakens the requirement for quantum channels. The proposed scheme is symmetric which means even though the designed receiver has no capability of adopting appropriate strategies in introducing auxiliary qubits and performing two-qubit gates, it is still possible to faithfully share a multi-qubit state with assistance of other participants. This scheme involves only single-qubit measurements, CNOT gates, and local two-qubit gates with an auxiliary qubit, which makes it more convenient for physical realization.     

Deterministic single-qubit operation sharing with five-qubit cluster state

Perfect sharing of arbitrary single-qubit operation (PSASQO) with shared entanglements and LOCC is focused. A symmetric three-party PSASQO scheme is put forward by utilizing the five-qubit cluster state proposed by Briegel and Raussendorf (Phys Rev Lett 86:910, 2001). Some concrete discussions on the scheme are made, including its important features, the essential role of the quantum channel, its direct generalization to more-party cases, the problem of entanglement structure and its application perspective in some peculiar quantum scenario as well as its security analysis. Particularly, the experimental feasibilities of the scheme and its generalizations are demonstrated, i.e., showing the employed unitary operations are local and accessible single-qubit Pauli and two-qubit control NOT operations according to nowaday experimental techniques.
