Quantum two-state sharing

In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for quantum two-state sharing (QTSS) by using a five-qubit entangled state as the quantum channel. In this scheme, a dealer Alice has two unknown quantum states and wants her three agents to share the quantum states. After the dealer performs a four-qubit measurement on her qubits, and the controller employs a single-qubit measurement on his own qubit, the state receivers can reconstruct the original states by using the appropriate unitary operations. It is shown that, only if all agents collaborate with each other, the QTSS can be completed with unit success probability.

Deterministic joint remote state preparation via partially entangled quantum channel

In this paper, we propose a scheme for deterministic joint remote state preparation (JRSP). Two spatially separated senders intend to help a receiver remotely prepare an arbitrary single-qubit state. Four-particle partially entangled state is constructed to serve as the quantum channel. By determining right unitary operations for the senders and appropriate recovery operations for the receiver, the target state can be reestablished with unit success probability, irrespective of the channel parameter.
