Ubiquitous in quantum computing is the step to encode data into a quantum state. This process is called quantum state preparation, and its complexity for non-structured data is exponential on the number of qubits. Several works address this…

Determining the state of a quantum system is a consuming procedure. For this reason, whenever one is interested only in some particular property of a state, it would be desirable to design a measurement setup that reveals this property with…

Quantum states are the key mathematical objects in quantum mechanics, and entanglement lies at the heart of the nascent fields of quantum information processing and computation. However, there has not been a general, necessary and…

State-dependent cloning machines that have so far been considered either deterministically copy a set of states approximately, or probablistically copy them exactly. In considering the case of two equiprobable pure states, we derive the…

We provide a number of schemes for the splitting up of quantum information among $k$ parties using a $N$-qubit linear cluster state as a quantum channel, such that the original information can be reconstructed only if all the parties…

Pure state of a physical system can be prepared in an infinite number of ways. Here, we prove that given a pure state of a quantum system it is impossible to distinguish two preparation procedures. Further, we show that if we can…

We identify a formal connection between physical problems related to the detection of separable (unentangled) quantum states and complexity classes in theoretical computer science. In particular, we show that to nearly every quantum…

Quantum systems may contain underlying correlations which are inaccessible to computationally bounded observers. We capture this distinction through a framework that analyses bipartite states only using efficiently implementable quantum…

Sealing information means making it publicly available, but with the possibility of knowing if it has been read. Commenting on [1], we will show that perfect quantum sealing is not possible for perfectly retrievable information, due to the…

The problem of quantum state filtering consists of determining whether an unknown quantum state, which is chosen from a known set of states, is either a particular, specified state, or not. We consider this problem for the case that the…

Communication scenarios between two parties can be implemented by first encoding messages into some states of a physical system which acts as the physical medium of the communication and then decoding the messages by measuring the state of…

The problem of quantum state classification asks how accurately one can identify an unknown quantum state that is promised to be drawn from a known set of pure states. In this work, we introduce the notion of $k$-learnability, which…

The problem of discriminating the state of a quantum system among a number of hypothetical states is usually addressed under the assumption that one has perfect knowledge of the possible states of the system. In this thesis, I analyze the…

We study coordination under restricted information, where classical local models fail to implement certain correlated distributions because agents cannot condition on past history. We show that quantum systems overcome this limitation even…

We construct efficient quantum logic network for probabilistic cloning the quantum states used in implemented tasks for which cloning provides some enhancement in performance.

Quantum information processing using linear optics is challenging due to the limited set of deterministic operations achievable without using complicated resource-intensive methods. While techniques such as the use of ancillary photons can…

Local quantum operations and classical communication (LOCC) put considerable constraints on many quantum information processing tasks such as cloning and discrimination. Surprisingly however, discrimination of any two pure states survives…

The quantum computer is supposed to process information by applying unitary transformations to the complex amplitudes defining the state of N qubits. A useful machine needing N=1000 or more, the number of continuous parameters describing…

We put the pure-state decomposition mathematical property of a mixed state to a physical test. We begin by characterizing all the possible decompositions of a rank-two mixed state by means of the complex overlap between two involved states.…

Suppose you receive a sequence of qubits where each qubit is guaranteed to be in one of two pure states, but you do not know what those states are. Your task is to determine the states. This can be viewed as a kind of quantum state learning…
