    Deterministic Quantum Dense Coding Networks

    Full text link
    We consider the scenario of deterministic classical information transmission between multiple senders and a single receiver, when they a priori share a multipartite quantum state -- an attempt towards building a deterministic dense coding network. Specifically, we prove that in the case of two or three senders and a single receiver, generalized Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (gGHZ) states are not beneficial for sending classical information deterministically beyond the classical limit, except when the shared state is the GHZ state itself. On the other hand, three- and four-qubit generalized W (gW) states with specific parameters as well as the four-qubit Dicke states can provide a quantum advantage of sending the information in deterministic dense coding. Interestingly however, numerical simulations in the three-qubit scenario reveal that the percentage of states from the GHZ-class that are deterministic dense codeable is higher than that of states from the W-class.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures, close to published versio

    Probabilistic instantaneous quantum computation

    Full text link
    The principle of teleportation can be used to perform a quantum computation even before its quantum input is defined. The basic idea is to perform the quantum computation at some earlier time with qubits which are part of an entangled state. At a later time a generalized Bell state measurement is performed jointly on the then defined actual input qubits and the rest of the entangled state. This projects the output state onto the correct one with a certain exponentially small probability. The sufficient conditions are found under which the scheme is of benefit.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

    Optimal finite measurements and Gauss quadratures

    Full text link
    We exhibit measurements for optimal state estimation which have a finite number of outcomes. This is achieved by a connection between finite optimal measurements and Gauss quadratures. The example we consider to illustrate this connection is that of state estimation on NN qubits, all in a same pure state. Extensions to state estimation of mixed states are also discussed.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, paragraph added at the end of the article (extension of the problem to general states
