Cloning, deleting, and hiding in modal quantum theory

We examine the toy model of modal quantum theory (MQT), an analogue of actual quantum theory based on finite fields. In particular, we investigate how several essential ``no-go'' results (for cloning, deleting and hiding processes) work in MQT. Cloning and deleting are still forbidden in MQT, though the details of these results are somewhat different in the new context. However, the information of a modal qubit can be completely hidden in the correlations between two entangled modal qubits.

A no-broadcasting theorem for modal quantum theory

The quantum no-broadcasting theorem has an analogue in modal quantum theory (MQT), a toy model based on finite fields. The failure of broadcasting in MQT is related to the failure of distributivity of the lattice of subspaces of the state space.
