We propose a protocol that allows both the creation and distribution of entanglement, resulting in two distant parties (Alice and Bob) conclusively sharing a bipartite Bell State. The system considered is a graph of three-level objects…
A non-local box is an abstract device into which Alice and Bob input bits x and y respectively and receive outputs a and b respectively, where a, b are uniformly distributed and the parity of a+b equals xy. Such boxes have been central to…
In this paper, we design the first computationally efficient codes for simultaneously reliable and covert communication over Binary Symmetric Channels (BSCs). Our setting is as follows: a transmitter Alice wishes to potentially reliably…
Local pure states are an important resource for quantum computing. The problem of distilling local pure states from mixed ones can be cast in an information theoretic paradigm. The bipartite version of this problem where local purity must…
Assume that two distant parties, Alice and Bob, as well as an adversary, Eve, have access to (quantum) systems prepared jointly according to a tripartite state. In addition, Alice and Bob can use local operations and authenticated public…
For a finite dimensional discrete bipartite system, we find the relation between local projections performed by Alice, and Bob post-selected state dependence on the global state submatrices. With this result the joint state reconstruction…
We suggest a method for teleporting an unknown quantum state. In this method the sender Alice first uses a Controlled-Not operation on the particle in the unknown quantum state and an ancillary particle which she wants to send to the…
We explain the mechanism of the quantum speed-up - quantum algorithms requiring fewer computation steps than their classical equivalent - for a family of algorithms. Bob chooses a function and gives to Alice the black box that computes it.…
Quantum Key Distribution is a quantum communication technique in which random numbers are encoded on quantum systems, usually photons, and sent from one party, Alice, to another, Bob. Using the data sent via the quantum signals,…
We present two quantum information splitting schemes using respectively tripartite GHZ and asymmetric W states as quantum channels. We show that, if the secret state is chosen from a special ensemble and known to the sender (Alice), then…
We propose a scheme for the sharing of quantum steering among three observers, Alice, Bob, and Charlie using standard projective measurements. We show that in the unilateral sequential scenario, Alice can steer Bob's and Charlie's states…
We study the question of how much classical communication is needed when Alice is given a classical description of a quantum state $|\psi\rangle$ for Bob to recover any expectation value $\langle \psi | M |\psi\rangle$ given an observable…
In the Heisenberg picture of unitary quantum theory, Bell inequalities are violated with local elements of reality interacting locally. Here is how: Upon measuring her particle of the entangled pair, Alice -- like other coupled systems --…
Suppose Alice and Bob jointly possess a pure state, $|\psi\ra$. Using local operations on their respective systems and classical communication it may be possible for Alice and Bob to transform $|\psi\ra$ into another joint state $|\phi\ra$.…
This work considers a teleportation task for Alice and Bob in a scenario where Bob cannot perform corrections. In particular, we analyse the task of \textit{multicopy state teleportation}, where Alice has $k$ identical copies of an…
We initially consider a quantum system consisting of two qubits, which can be in one of two nonorthogonal states, \Psi_0 or \Psi_1. We distribute the qubits to two parties, Alice and Bob. They each measure their qubit and then compare their…
We demonstrate a basic non-classical effect in a quasi-probabilistic toy model with local Alice and Bob who share classical randomness. Our scenario differs from the orthodox demonstrations of non-classicality such as violations of Bell…
We consider situations in which i) Alice wishes to send quantum information to Bob via a noisy quantum channel, ii) Alice has a classical description of the states she wishes to send and iii) Alice can make use of a finite amount of…
The uncertainty principle can be understood as constraining the probability of winning a game in which Alice measures one of two conjugate observables, such as position or momentum, on a system provided by Bob, and he is to guess the…
We introduce the task of anonymous metrology, in which a physical parameter of an object may be determined without revealing the object's location. Alice and Bob share a correlated quantum state, with which one of them probes the object.…
