Symmetric-Cyclic Bidirectional Quantum Teleportation of Bell-like State via Entanglement-Swapping (2410.03709v1)

Abstract: Quantum teleportation is a primitive foundational protocol for exchanging quantum information in a quantum network as well as infrastructural operational strategy in the measurement-based quantum computation. Designing an efficient scheme for quantum teleportation is a vibrant field of intensive research. We propose a scheme wherein Bell-like states are being exchanged simultaneously in cyclic sequence, i.e., symmetric-cyclic bi-directional quantum teleportation, amongst three communicating parties forming a quantum network, Alice, Bob and Charlie via entanglement-swapping with the aid of a cluster of three maximally entangled GHZ-states as the quantum channel. Moreover, based upon communication- and operation- complexity, we compare our protocol with other equivalent protocols and found that the intrinsic efficiency of our protocol is maximum pegging at 33.33%.
