Non-Standard Probabilistic Teleportation through Conventionally Non-Teleporting Channels (1108.0080v1)

Abstract: A non-standard teleportation scheme is proposed, wherein probabilistic teleportation is achieved in conventionally non-teleporting channels. We make use of entanglement monogamy to incorporate an unknown state in a multipartite entangled channel, such that the receiver partially gets disentangled from the network. Subsequently, the sender performs local measurement based teleportation protocol in an appropriate measurement basis, which results with the receiver in the possession of an unknown state, connected by local unitary transformation with the state to be teleported. This procedure succeeds in a number of cases, like that of W and other non-maximally entangled four qubit states, where the conventional measurement based approach has failed. It is also found that in certain four particle channels, the present procedure does not succeed, although the conventional one works well.
