How to encode the states of two non-entangled qubits in one qutrit?

Quantum Physics 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

A new scheme of quantum coding is presented. The scheme concerns the quantum states to which Schumacher's compression does not apply. It is shown that two qubits can be encoded in a single qutrit in such a way that one can faithfully reconstruct the state of one qubit. Decision on which of these two qubits is to be reconstructed can be made long after the encoding took place. The scheme succeeds with the average probability of 2/3.
