Inspired from quantum key distribution, we consider wireless communication between Alice and Bob when the intermediate space between Alice and Bob is controlled by Eve. That is, our model divides the channel noise into two parts, the noise…
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…
Suppose two distant observers Alice and Bob share a pure bipartite quantum state. By applying local operations and communicating with each other using a classical channel, Alice and Bob can manipulate it into some other states. Previous…
Entanglement is a fundamental resource for quantum information processing. In its pure form, it allows quantum teleportation and sharing classical secrets. Realistic quantum states are noisy and their usefulness is only partially…
We answer an open question about Quantum Key Recycling (QKR): Is it possible to put the message entirely in the qubits without increasing the number of qubits? We show that this is indeed possible. We introduce a prepare-and-measure QKR…
Information about an unknown quantum state can be encoded in weak values of projectors belonging to a complete eigenbasis. We present a protocol that enables one party -- Bob -- to remotely determine the weak values corresponding to weak…
We propose a quantum teleportation scheme for transmitting a single qutrit state by adopting a 2-qudit entangled state as the quantum channel. The measurement basis for Alice has been carefully and systematically constructed, which is…
