The transfer of quantum states has played an important role in quantum information processing. In fact, transfer of quantum states from point $A$ to $B$ with unit fidelity is very important for us and we focus on this case. In recent years,…

The standard quantum state discrimination problem can be understood as a communication scenario involving a sender and a receiver following these three steps: (i) the sender encodes information in pre-agreed quantum states, (ii) sends them…

We study the transport of quantum correlations across a chain of interacting spin-1/2 particles. As a quantitative figure of merit, we choose a symmetric version of quantum discord and compare it with the transported entanglement,…
A completely depolarising quantum channel always outputs a fully mixed state and thus cannot transmit any information. In a recent Letter [D. Ebler et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 120502 (2018)], it was however shown that if a quantum state…
We show how two many-body, generally mixed, quantum states can be swapped via collective, all-to-all interactions. Specifically, we present an experimentally relevant implementation for quantum dots that enables coherent exchange of quantum…

Finding minimal time and establishing the structure of the corresponding optimal controls which can transfer a given initial state of a quantum system into a given target state is a key problem of quantum control. In this work, this problem…
We introduce a new genuinely 2N qubit state, known as the "mirror state" with interesting entanglement properties. The well known Bell and the cluster states form a special case of these "mirror states", for N=1 and N=2 respectively. It can…
State redistribution allows one party to optimally send part of her state to another party. Here we show that this can be derived simply from two applications of coherent state-merging. This provides a protocol whereby a middle party acts…
