Four-party quantum operation sharing with composite quantum channel in Bell and Yeo-Chua product state

摘要

A four-party single-qubit operation sharing scheme is put forward by utilizing the Bell and Yeo-Chua product state in an entanglement structure as the composite quantum channel. Four features of the scheme are discussed and confirmed, including its determinacy, symmetry, and security as well as the scheme experimental feasibility. Moreover, some concrete comparisons between our present scheme and a previous scheme [H. Xing et al., Quantum Inf. Process. 13 (2014) 1553] are made from the aspects of quantum and classical resource consumption, necessary operation complexity, and intrinsic efficiency. It is found that our present scheme is more superior than that one. In addition, the essential reason why the employed state in the entanglement structure is applicable for sharing an arbitrary single-qubit operation among four parties is revealed via deep analyses. With respect to the essential reason, the capacity of the product state in quantum operation sharing (QOS) is consequently shown by simple presenting the corresponding schemes with the state in other entanglement structures.
