It is well known that quantum switch is an example of indefinite causal order. Recently, application of quantum switch on quantum channels, became a hot topic of discussion. It is possible to achieve significant improvement in communication, when a quantum switch is applied on quantum channels. Though above-said improvement is not possible for all quantum channels. For some quantum channels, improvement can be very high. One such example has been discussed in [New J. of Phys. 23, 033039 (2021)] where perfect communication can be achieved. But incidentally that example of channel is unique up to unitary transformations. Therefore, it is important to study the application of quantum switch on other quantum channels where improvement may not be ultimate but significant. Here, we study the application of quantum switch on various quantum channels. In particular we show that if it is not possible to achieve improvement deterministically, it may be possible to achieve improvement probabilistically. It is known that if a quantum channel is useless for some information theoretic task, concatenation of quantum channels generally does not provide any advantage whenever that channel is used. But we show that if a quantum channel is useless even after use of quantum switch, concatenation of quantum channel can make it useful. We also show that quantum switch can help to get quantum advantage in quantum random access code when only useless channels are available for communication. Then we show that quantum switch can be useful to prevent the loss of coherence in a quantum system. We also discuss the fact that if noise is introduced in the switch, then improvement can significantly be decreased.
The quantum Zeno effect (QZE) is the phenomenon where the unitary evolution of a quantum state is suppressed e.g. due to frequent measurements. Here, we investigate the use of the QZE in a class of communication complexity problems (CCPs). Quantum en
The unique features of quantum walk, such as the possibility of the walker to be in superposition ofthe position space and get entangled with the position space, provides inherent advantages that canbe captured to design highly secure quantum communi
In quantum mechanics events can happen in no definite causal order: in practice this can be verified by measuring a causal witness, in the same way that an entanglement witness verifies entanglement. Indefinite causal order can be observed in a quant
We introduce a protocol for a quantum switch in the gravitational field of a spherical mass and determine the time interval required for its realization in the gravity of Earth. One of the agents that perform operations with indefinite order is a qua
Weak coherent states as a photon source for quantum cryptography have limit in secure data rate and transmission distance because of the presence of multi-photon events and loss in transmission line. Two-photon events in a coherent state can be taken
