Continuous variable quantum teleportation, $U(2)$ invariant squeezing and non-Gaussian resource states

We investigate the role of quadrature squeezing in the quantum teleportation protocol for coherent states, using non-Gaussian resource states. For the two-mode systems, the non-Gaussian resource states that we use are obtained by an experimentally realizable scheme of photon subtraction, photon addition, and photon catalysis, on the two-mode squeezed vacuum, and two-mode squeezed thermal states. We first analyze the non-classical attribute of quadrature squeezing in these generated non-Gaussian states using the $U(2)$ invariant squeezing approach, which allows us to account for all possible quadratures. We then show that the presence of such non-classicality in non-Gaussian resource states is not necessary for successful quantum teleportation, a finding which is at variance with an earlier result in this direction. This result is important since it demonstrates how non-classicality other than quadrature squeezing present in the resource can be utilized for quantum teleportation.

Continuous variable quantum teleportation in a dissipative environment: Comparison of non-Gaussian operations before and after noisy channel

We explore the relative advantages in continuous-variable quantum teleportation when non-Gaussian operations, namely, photon subtraction, addition, and catalysis, are performed before and after interaction with a noisy channel. We generate the resource state for teleporting unknown coherent and squeezed vacuum states using two distinct strategies: (i) Implementation of non-Gaussian operations on TMSV state before interaction with a noisy channel, (ii) Implementation of non-Gaussian operations after interaction of TMSV state with a noisy channel. The results show that either of the two strategies could be more beneficial than the other depending on the type of the non-Gaussian operation, the initial squeezing of the TMSV state, and the parameters characterizing the noisy channel. This strategy can be utilized to effectively improve the efficiency of various non-Gaussian continuous variable quantum information processing tasks in a dissipative environment.

Parity-detection-based Mach-Zehnder interferometry with coherent and non-Gaussian squeezed vacuum states as inputs

We theoretically explore the advantages rendered by non-Gaussian operations in phase estimation using a parity-detection-based Mach-Zehnder interferometer, with one input being a coherent state and the other being a non-Gaussian squeezed vacuum state (SVS). We consider a realistic model to perform three different non-Gaussian operations, namely photon subtraction, photon addition, and photon catalysis on a single-mode SVS. We start by deriving the Wigner function of the non-Gaussian SVSs, which is then utilized to derive the expression for the phase sensitivity. The analysis of the phase sensitivity reveals that all three different non-Gaussian operations can enhance the phase sensitivity under suitable choices of parameters. We also consider the probabilistic nature of these non-Gaussian operations, the results of which reveal the single photon addition to be the optimal operation. Further, our analysis also enables us to identify the optimal squeezing of the SVS and the transmissivity of the beam splitter involved in the implementation of the non-Gaussian operations.
