(February 1, 2001) Classical communication through quantum channels may be enhanced by sharing entanglement. Superdense coding allows the encoding, and transmission, of up to two classical bits of information in a single qubit. In this paper, the maximum classical channel capacity for states that are not maximally entangled is derived.

  • Entanglement and Superdense Coding with Linear Optics
    International Journal of Quantum Information Vol. 9, Nos. 7 & 8 (2011) 1737À1744 #.c World Scientific Publishing Company DOI: 10.1142/S0219749911008222 ENTANGLEMENT AND SUPERDENSE CODING WITH LINEAR OPTICS MLADEN PAVIČIĆ Chair of Physics, Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Zagreb, Croatia [email protected] Received 16 May 2011 We discuss a scheme for a full superdense coding of entangled photon states employing only linear optics elements. By using the mixed basis consisting of four states that are unambigu- ously distinguishable by a standard and polarizing beam splitters we can deterministically transfer four messages by manipulating just one of the two entangled photons. The sender achieves the determinism of the transfer either by giving up the control over 50% of sent messages (although known to her) or by discarding 33% of incoming photons. Keywords: Superdense coding; quantum communication; Bell states; mixed basis. 1. Introduction Superdense coding (SC)1 — sending up to two bits of information, i.e. four messages, by manipulating just one of two entangled qubits (two-state quantum systems) — is considered to be a protocol that launched the field of quantum communication.2 Apart from showing how different quantum coding of information is from the classical one — which can encode only two messages in a two-state system — the protocol has also shown how important entanglement of qubits is for their manipulation. Such an entanglement has proven to be a genuine quantum effect that cannot be achieved with the help of two classical bit carriers because we cannot entangle classical systems. To use this advantage of quantum information transfer, it is very important to keep the trade-off of the increased transfer capacity balanced with the technology of implementing the protocol.

  • Quantum Protocols Involving Multiparticle Entanglement and Their Representations in the Zx-Calculus
    Quantum Protocols involving Multiparticle Entanglement and their Representations in the zx-calculus. Anne Hillebrand University College University of Oxford A thesis submitted for the degree of MSc Mathematics and the Foundations of Computer Science 1 September 2011 Acknowledgements First I want to express my gratitude to my parents for making it possible for me to study at Oxford and for always supporting me and believing in me. Furthermore, I would like to thank Alex Merry for helping me out whenever I had trouble with quantomatic. Moreover, I want to say thank you to my friends, who picked me up whenever I was down and took my mind off things when I needed it. Lastly I want to thank my supervisor Bob Coecke for introducing me to the subject of quantum picturalism and for always making time for me when I asked for it. Abstract Quantum entanglement, described by Einstein as \spooky action at a distance", is a key resource in many quantum protocols, like quantum teleportation and quantum cryptography. Yet entanglement makes protocols presented in Dirac notation difficult to follow and check. This is why Coecke nad Duncan have in- troduced a diagrammatic language for multi-qubit systems, called the red/green calculus or the zx-calculus [23]. This diagrammatic notation is both intuitive and formally rigorous. It is a simple, graphical, high level language that empha- sises the composition of systems and naturally captures the essentials of quantum mechanics. One crucial feature that will be exploited here is the encoding of complementary observables and corresponding phase shifts. Reasoning is done by rewriting diagrams, i.e.

Published 15 January 2015 Blind quantum computation (BQC) provides an efficient method for the client who does not have enough sophisticated technology and knowledge to perform universal quantum computation. The single-server BQC protocol requires the client to have some minimum quantum ability, while the double-server BQC protocol makes the client’s device completely classical, resorting to the pure and clean Bell state shared by Correspondence and two servers. Here, we provide a deterministic entanglement distillation protocol in a practical noisy requests for materials environment for the double-server BQC protocol. This protocol can get the pure maximally entangled Bell should be addressed to state. The success probability can reach 100% in principle.

We developed this protocol to include quantum entity authentication in the DSQC procedure. By first performing quantum entity authentication, it was possible to prevent third-party intervention. We demonstrate the security of the proposed protocol against the intercept-and-re-send attack and the entanglement-and-measure attack. Implementation of this protocol was demonstrated for quantum channels of various lengths. Especially, we propose the use of the multiple generation and shuffling method to prevent a loss of message in the experiment. Keywords: optical communication; quantum cryptography; quantum mechanics 1. Introduction By using the fundamental postulates of quantum mechanics, quantum cryptography ensures secure communication among legitimate users. Many quantum cryptography schemes have been developed since the introduction of the BB84 protocol in 1984 [1] by C. H. Bennett and G. Brassard. In the BB84 protocol, the sender uses a rectilinear or diagonal basis to encode information in single photons.

  • Entanglement Manipulation
    Entanglement Manipulation Steven T. Flammia1 1Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, Waterloo, Ontario, N2L 2Y5 Canada (Dated: 22 March 2010) These are notes for my RIT tutorial lecture at the University of Maryland math department. I. INTRODUCTION Entanglement serves as a resource which we can use to perform novel information processing tasks, in particular communication tasks. For example, superdense coding and teleportation are two such tasks which are impossible classically; they make essential use of entanglement. In this lecture I’m going to cover dense coding and teleportation and then show how we can manipulate entanglement into a standard “currency” which will allow us to quantify how useful different states are for these tasks. Based on an operational definition, we will define a way to measure the amount of entanglement in a quantum state. We will consider the following scenario. We have two parties, Alice and Bob (labeled A and B), and they wish to communicate through a quantum or classical channel. In the literature, channel does have a technical meaning: it is a completely positive linear map, i.e. a linear map that takes density operators to density operators (and it is not necessarily surjective). We call these CP maps for short. We can consider that the channel is noisy, or we can consider a perfect channel (the identity map), but we have noisy quantum states. We will always assume that any classical channel is perfect. A and B would like to communicate classical and quantum information in the most efficient way possible using the classical and quantum channels (respectively) that they share.
