One of the major obstacles faced by quantum-enabled technology is the environmental noise that causes decoherence in the quantum system, thereby destroying much of its quantum aspects and introduces errors while the system undergoes quantum operations and processing. A number of techniques have been invented to mitigate the environmental effects; however, much of these techniques are specific to the environment and the quantum tasks at hand, limiting their applicability. Here we propose a protocol that makes arbitrary environments effectively noise-free or transparent. The protocol exploits non-local superposition in evolution as a quantum resource. Consequently, it enables full protection of quantum information and entanglement from decoherence, and perfect quantum communications across arbitrary noisy channels for any finite-dimensional quantum system. We also propose experimental schemes to implement this protocol on linear optical and atomic systems.

Quantum Private Comparison (QPC) allows us to protect private information during its comparison. In the past various three-party quantum protocols have been proposed that claim to work well under noisy conditions. Here we tackle the problem of QPC under noise. We analyze the EPR-based protocol under depolarizing noise, bit flip and phase flip noise. We show how noise affects the robustness of the EPR-based protocol. We then present a straightforward protocol based on CSS codes to perform QPC which is robust against noise and secure under general attacks.
We consider realistic measurement systems, where measurements are accompanied by decoherence processes. The aim of this work is the construction of methods and algorithms for precise quantum measurements with fidelity close to the fundamental limit. In the present work the notions of ideal and non-ideal quantum measurements are strictly formalized. It is shown that non-ideal quantum measurements could be represented as a mixture of ideal measurements. Based on root approach the quantum state reconstruction method is developed. Informational accuracy theory of non-ideal quantum measurements is proposed. The monitoring of the amount of information about the quantum state parameters is examined, including the analysis of the information degradation under the noise influence. The study of achievable fidelity in non-ideal quantum measurements is performed. The results of simulation of fidelity characteristics of a wide class of quantum protocols based on polyhedrons geometry with high level of symmetry are presented. The impact of different decoherence mechanisms, including qubit amplitude and phase relaxation, bit-flip and phase-flip, is considered.
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is one of the most important subjects in quantum information theory. There are two kinds of QKD protocols, prepare-measure protocols and entanglement-based protocols. For long-distance communications in noisy environments, entanglement-based protocols might be more reliable since they could be assisted with distillation procedures to prevent from noises. In this paper, we study the entanglement-based QKD over certain noisy channels and present schemes against collective noises, including collective dephasing and collective rotation, Pauli noises, amplitude damping noises, phase damping noises and mixtures of them. We focus on how to implement QKD protocols over noisy channels as in noiseless ones without errors. We also analyze the efficiency of the schemes, demonstrating that they could be more efficient than the standard entanglement-based QKD scheme.
Many fundamental and applied experiments in quantum optics require transferring nonclassical states of light through large distances. In this context the free-space channels are a very promising alternative to optical fibers as they are mobile and enable to establish communications with moving objects, using satellites for global quantum links. For such channels the atmospheric turbulence is the main disturbing factor. The statistical properties of the fluctuating transmittance through the turbulent atmosphere are given by the probability distribution of transmittance (PDT). We derive the consistent PDTs for the atmospheric quantum channels by step-by-step inclusion of various atmospheric effects such as beam wandering, beam broadening and deformation of the beam into elliptic form, beam deformations into arbitrary forms. We discuss the applicability of PDT models for different propagation distances and optical turbulence strengths in the case when the receiver module has an annular aperture. We analyze the optimal detection and correction strategies which can improve the channel transmission characteristics. The obtained results are important for the design of optical experiments including postselection and adaptive strategies and for the security analysis of quantum communication protocols in free-space.
The universal quantum computation model based on quantum walk by Childs has opened the door for a new way of studying the limitations and advantages of quantum computation, as well as for its intermediate-term simulation. In recent years, the growing interest in noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers (NISQ) has lead to intense efforts being directed at understanding the computational advantages of open quantum systems. In this work, we extend the quantum walk model to open noisy systems in order to provide such a tool for the study of NISQ computers. Our method does not use explicit purification, and allows to ignore the environment degrees of freedom and get direct and much more efficient access to the entanglement properties of the system. In our representation, the quantum walk amplitudes represent elements in a density matrix rather than the wavefunction of a pure state. Despite the non-trivial manifestation of the normalization requirement in this setting, we model the application of general unitary gates and nonunitary channels, with an explicit implementation protocol for channels that are commonly used in noise models.
