Continuous-Variable Quantum Information Distributor: Reversible Telecloning

Quantum Physics 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

We propose a scheme of continuous-variable reversible telecloning, which broadcast the information of an unknown state without loss from a sender to several spatially separated receivers exploiting multipartite entanglement as quantum channels. In this scheme, quantum information of an unknown state is distributed into MM optimal clones and M1M-1 anticlones using 2M2M% -partite entanglement. For the perfect quantum information distribution that is optimal cloning, 2M2M-partite entanglement is required to be a maximum two-party entanglement. Comparing with the quantum telecloning proposed by Loock and Braunstein [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 247901 (2001)], this protocol produces the anticlones (or time-reversed state) of the unknown quantum state, thus, keep all information of an unknown state.
