The ability to prepare arbitrary quantum state is the holy grail of quantum information technology. Previous schemes focus on circuit complexity using implicit decomposition schemes for global evolutions and are difficult in quantum experiments because the generation circuit can be completed for given coefficients each time. One protocol is firstly proposed in this paper in order to deterministically generate arbitrary four-qubit states with any coefficients. In order to complete this scheme with present physical techniques, we present an explicit quantum circuit with unknown coefficients of prepared states using elementary quantum gates. The key of our scheme is constructing the Cartan KAK decomposition of special transformations in $$SO(4)$$ and $$SO(8)$$ . And then, this protocol is extended to arbitrary five-qubit states and six-qubit states. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this work, novel schemes for joint remote state preparation are presented, which involve N senders and 2 receivers as well as N senders and 3 receivers. The receivers can simultaneously reconstruct different qubit states containing the joint information from all senders. Compared with the protocols proposed by Su et al. (Int J Quantum Inf 10:1250006 (), the information of the prepared states in our schemes is distributed in a different way. Our protocols can be applied not only to states with real parameters but also ones with complex parameters. Moreover, the N-to-2 protocol is suitable for general qubit states besides equatorial states, and the receivers need not to perform any measurements and CNOT gates to reconstruct the states.

The quantum no-cloning theorem and no-deleting theorem may be the most important quantum features for quantum communications or quantum computations. In this paper, we concentrate typical properties of random quantum evolution. We obtain that universal random evolutions change the generic unknown pure states into their orthogonal states approximately. Moreover, typical random evolutions distort the von Neumann entropy with constants. These results are extended to mixed states with a stronger orthogonal preparation ability. These typical characters are very important for quantum information retrieving or various quantum tasks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The protocols for joint remote preparation of an arbitrary two-particle pure state from a spatially separated multi-sender to one receiver are presented in this paper. We first consider the situation of two sender and demonstrate a flexible deterministic joint remote state preparation compared with previous probabilistic schemes. And then generalize the protocol to multi-sender and show that by only adding some classical communication the success probability of preparation can be increased to four times. Finally, using a proper positive operator-valued measure instead of usual projective measurement, we present a new scheme via two non-maximally entangled states. It is shown that our schemes are generalizations of the usual standard joint remote state preparation scheme and more suitable for real experiments with requirements of only Pauli operations.

In this paper, we propose two schemes to remotely split an arbitrary three-qubit state. The χ and a GHZ state are used to construct the quantum channel. One scheme is completed by using the generalized Bell basis measurement of multi-particles. The other scheme is constructed by using the quantum primitives, which are described by the quantum circuit and photon architecture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is to establish a theoretical framework for faithful and deterministic remote state preparation, which is related to the classical Hurwitz theorem. And then based on the new theory various schemes with different characteristics are presented. Moreover, the permutation group and the partially quantum resources have also discussed for faithful schemes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
