Universal Optimal Cloning of Arbitrary Quantum States: From Qubits to Quantum Registers
نویسنده
چکیده
We present the universal cloning transformation of states in arbitrary-dimensional Hilbert spaces. This unitary transformation attains the optimal fidelity of cloning as specified by Werner [Phys. Rev. A 58, 1827 (1998)]. With this cloning transformation, pure as well as impure states can be optimally copied, and the quality of the copies does not depend on the state being copied. We discuss the properties of quantum clones. In particular, we show that in the limit of high dimension the fidelity of clones does not converge to zero but attains the limit 1y2. We also show that our cloning transformation is most suitable for cloning of entanglement. [S0031-9007(98)07854-5]

Universal Optimal Cloning of Qubits and Quantum Registers
We review our recent work on the universal (i.e. input state independent) optimal quantum copying (cloning) of qubits. We present unitary transformations which describe the optimal cloning of a qubit, and we present the corresponding quantum logic network. We also present a network for an optimal quantum copying “machine” (transformation) which produces N +1 identical copies from the original q...
متن کاملExperimental optimal cloning of four-dimensional quantum states of photons.
Optimal quantum cloning is the process of making one or more copies of an arbitrary unknown input quantum state with the highest possible fidelity. All reported demonstrations of quantum cloning have so far been limited to copying two-dimensional quantum states, or qubits. We report the experimental realization of the optimal quantum cloning of four-dimensional quantum states, or ququarts, enco...
متن کاملIs It Possible To Clone Using An Arbitrary Blank State?
We show that using a fixed cloning machine, whether deterministic inexact or probabilistic exact, one can take an arbitrary blank state. Quantum information cannot be cloned. There cannot exist a machine which can produce two (or more) exact copies of an arbitrary state in a deterministic manner [1]. Replication is not allowed even when the input state is taken at random from a given set of two...
متن کاملRealization of the 1 → 3 optimal phase - covariant quantum cloning machine
The 1 → 3 quantum phase covariant cloning, which optimally clones qubits belonging to the equatorial plane of the Bloch sphere, achieves the fidelity F1→3 cov = 0.833, larger than for the 1 → 3 universal cloning F1→3 univ = 0.778. We show how the 1 → 3 phase covariant cloning can be implemented by a smart modification of the standard universal quantum machine by a projection of the output state...
متن کاملA pr 2 00 3 Teleportation scheme implementing the Universal Optimal
The universal quantum cloning machine and the universal NOT gate acting on a single qubit can be implemented very generally by slightly modifying the protocol of quantum state teleportation. The experimental demonstration of the 1 → 2 cloning process according to the above scheme has been realized for a qubit encoded in photon polarization. Classical information is encoded in bits, viz. dichoto...
