==Pseudo Code== | |||
*'''Input:''' The qubit <math>|\psi\rangle</math> is the to-be-send state which the first party(Sender) wants to transfer to the second party (Receiver). The quantum state can be written generally in standard basis as:</br> | |||
<math>|\psi\rangle = \alpha |0\rangle_{O} + \beta |1\rangle_{O}</math>, <math>\alpha</math> and <math>\beta</math> coefficients are unknown to the Sender.</br> | |||
'''<u>Stage</u>''' Share entangled qubits (EPR pair) | |||
# Generate an EPR pair (or a maximally-entangled two-qubit sate) and give one qubit to the sender(A) and one to the receiver(B). The shared EPR state between the two parties is described as:</br> | |||
<math>|\Phi^+\rangle_{AB} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} (|0\rangle_A|0\rangle_B + |1\rangle_A|1\rangle_B)</math> | |||
#This step is a pre-preparation step which should be run before the protocol starts. The state of all the three particles are as follows: | |||
<math>|\psi\rangle_O \otimes |\Phi^+\rangle_{AB} = (\alpha|0\rangle_O + \beta|1\rangle_O) \otimes \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} (|0\rangle_A|0\rangle_B + |1\rangle_A|1\rangle_B)</math></br> | |||
In order to make the next step more clear, the above three-qubit states can be written in [[Bell basis]] (spaned by four two-qubit Bell states <math>|\Phi^+\rangle$, $|\Phi^-\rangle$, $|\Psi^+\rangle$ and $|\Psi^-\rangle</math>)</br></br> | |||
<math>|\psi\rangle_O \otimes |\Phi^+\rangle_{AB} = \frac{1}{2} [|\Phi^+\rangle_{AO} \otimes (\alpha |0\rangle + \beta |1\rangle)_B + |\Phi^-\rangle_{AO} \otimes (\alpha |0\rangle - \beta |1\rangle)_B + |\Psi^+\rangle_{AO} \otimes (\beta |0\rangle + \alpha |1\rangle)_B + |\Psi^-\rangle_{AO} \otimes (\beta |0\rangle - \alpha |1\rangle)_B]</math></br></br> | |||
'''<u>Stage 2</u>''' Local Measurement by Sender(A) | |||
* '''Input:''' <math>|\psi\rangle_O \otimes |\Phi^+\rangle_{AB}</math> | |||
* '''Output:''' The output of the Sender's measurement in Bell basis | |||
# The sender(A) performs a local measurement on two qubits that she has (the original state and her share of the EPR pair) in the Bell basis. | |||
# The output of this measurement will be one of the four Bell states: $|\Phi^+\rangle$, $|\Phi^-\rangle$, $|\Psi^+\rangle$ and <math>|\Psi^-\rangle</math></br></br> | |||
'''<u>Stage 3</u>''' Send classical information | |||
# According to the result of the measurement on the previous step, Sender A sends two bits of classical information to B indicating the result of her measurement: | |||
## '''if''' the result is <math>|\Phi^+\rangle \rightarrow</math> send <math>00</math> | |||
##'''if''' the result is <math>|\Phi^-\rangle \rightarrow</math> send <math>01</math> | |||
## '''if''' the result is <math>|\Psi^+\rangle \rightarrow</math> send <math>10</math> | |||
## '''if''' the result is <math>|\Psi^-\rangle \rightarrow</math> send <math>11</math></br></br> | |||
'''<u>Stage 4</u>''' Local Operation by Receiver(B) | |||
*'''Input:''' two classical bits: c <math>\in \{00, 01, 10, 11\}</math> | |||
*'''Output:''' Teleported state <math>|\psi\rangle</math> | |||
# The receiver performs a local unitary operation on his qubit. Before this step and after that the two-qubit measurement is performed by the sender, The state of the Receiver will change to the following states according to the Sender's measurement results: | |||
# '''if''' the result is <math>|\Phi^+\rangle \rightarrow</math> Receiver's state will be: <math>\alpha |0\rangle + \beta |1\rangle</math> | |||
# '''if''' the result is <math>|\Phi^-\rangle \rightarrow</math> Receiver's state will be: <math>\alpha |0\rangle - \beta |1\rangle</math> | |||
# '''if''' the result is <math>|\Psi^+\rangle \rightarrow</math> Receiver's state will be: <math>\beta |0\rangle + \alpha |1\rangle</math> | |||
# '''if''' the result is <math>|\Psi^-\rangle \rightarrow</math> Receiver's state will be: <math>\beta |0\rangle - \alpha |1\rangle</math> | |||
* The receiver will perform following Operators on the above states: | |||
# '''if''' he receives <math>00 \rightarrow</math> he performs <math>I</math> (does nothing) | |||
# '''if''' he receives <math>01 \rightarrow</math> he performs <math>Z([[Pauli Z]])</math> | |||
# '''if''' he receives <math>10 \rightarrow</math> he performs <math>X([[Pauli X]])</math> | |||
# '''if''' he receives <math>11 \rightarrow</math> he performs <math>ZX</math> (Pauli X then a Pauli Z) | |||
*As a result, the state of the receiver will be: <math>|\psi\rangle_B = \alpha|0\rangle + \beta |1\rangle</math> | |||
