Completely depolarising channels, which transform every input state into white noise, are often regarded as the prototype of physical processes that are useless for communication. Here we show that the ability to combine N completely depolarising channels in a superposition of N alternative causal orders related by cyclic permutations enables a high-fidelity, heralded transmission of quantum information in the large N limit, and a deterministic transmission of quantum data assisted by classical communication for every N > 13. These phenomena highlight a fundamental difference with the N = 2 case, where the superposition of causal orders does not enable transmission of quantum data through completely depolarising channels. In addition, the ability to control N > 2 causal orders leads to an increase of the classical communication capacity, for which we derive an exact single-letter expression.

We consider the transfer of classical and quantum information through a memory amplitude damping channel. Such a quantum channel is modeled as a damped harmonic oscillator, the interaction between the information carriers - a train of qubits - and th e oscillator being of the Jaynes-Cummings kind. We prove that this memory channel is forgetful, so that quantum coding theorems hold for its capacities. We analyze entropic quantities relative to two uses of this channel. We show that memory effects improve the channel aptitude to transmit both classical and quantum information, and we investigate the mechanism by which memory acts in changing the channel transmission properties.
We investigate the advantage of coherent superposition of two different coded channels in quantum metrology. In a continuous variable system, we show that the Heisenberg limit $1/N$ can be beaten by the coherent superposition without the help of inde finite causal order. And in parameter estimation, we demonstrate that the strategy with the coherent superposition can perform better than the strategy with quantum textsc{switch} which can generate indefinite causal order. We analytically obtain the general form of estimation precision in terms of the quantum Fisher information and further prove that the nonlinear Hamiltonian can improve the estimation precision and make the measurement uncertainty scale as $1/N^m$ for $mgeq2$. Our results can help to construct a high-precision measurement equipment, which can be applied to the detection of coupling strength and the test of time dilation and the modification of the canonical commutation relation.
Models for quantum computation with circuit connections subject to the quantum superposition principle have been recently proposed. There, a control quantum system can coherently determine the order in which a target quantum system undergoes $N$ gate operations. This process, known as the quantum $N$-switch, is a resource for several information-processing tasks. In particular, it provides a computational advantage -- over fixed-gate-order quantum circuits -- for phase-estimation problems involving $N$ unknown unitary gates. However, the corresponding algorithm requires an experimentally unfeasible target-system dimension (super)exponential in $N$. Here, we introduce a promise problem for which the quantum $N$-switch gives an equivalent computational speed-up with target-system dimension as small as 2 regardless of $N$. We use state-of-the-art multi-core optical-fiber technology to experimentally demonstrate the quantum $N$-switch with $N=4$ gates acting on a photonic-polarization qubit. This is the first observation of a quantum superposition of more than $N=2$ temporal orders, demonstrating its usefulness for efficient phase-estimation.
We study the Kimble-Braunstein continuous-variable quantum teleportation with the quantum channel physically realized in the turbulent atmosphere. In this context, we examine the applicability of different strategies preserving the Gaussian entanglem ent [Bohmann et al., Phys. Rev. A 94, 010302(R) (2016)] for improving the fidelity of the coherent-state teleportation. First, we demonstrate that increasing the squeezing parameter characterizing the entangled state is restricted by its optimal value, which we derive for realistic experimentally-verified examples. Further, we consider the technique of adaptive correlations of losses and show its performance for channels with large squeezing parameters. Finally, we investigate the efficiencies of postselection strategies in dependence on the stochastic properties of the channel transmittance.
The ability to generate light in a pure quantum state is essential for advances in optical quantum technologies. However, obtaining quantum states with control in the photon-number has remained elusive. Optical light fields with zero and one photon c an be produced by single atoms, but so far it has been limited to generating incoherent mixtures, or coherent superpositions with a very small one-photon term. Here, we report on the on-demand generation of quantum superpositions of zero, one, and even two photons, via pulsed coherent control of a single artificial atom. Driving the system up to full atomic inversion leads to the generation of quantum superpositions of vacuum and one photon, with their relative populations controlled by the driving laser intensity. A stronger driving of the system, with $2pi$-pulses, results in a coherent superposition of vacuum, one and two photons, with the two-photon term exceeding the one-photon component, a state allowing phase super-resolving interferometry. Our results open new paths for optical quantum technologies with access to the photon-number degree-of-freedom.
