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 tanglement is known to solve certain CCPs beyond classical constraints. However, recent developments have yielded CCPs where super-classical results can be obtained using only communication of a single d-level quantum state (qudit) as a resource. In the class of CCPs considered here, we show quantum reduction of complexity in three ways: using i) entanglement and the QZE, ii) single qudit and the QZE, iii) single qudit. The final protocol is motivated by experimental feasibility, and we have performed a proof of concept experimental demonstration.
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 cation protocols. Here we propose two quan-tum direct communication protocols, a Quantum Secure Direct Communication (QSDC) protocoland a Controlled Quantum Dialogue (CQD) protocol using discrete-time quantum walk on a cycle.The proposed protocols are unconditionally secure against various attacks such as the intercept-resend attack, the denial of service attack, and the man-in-the-middle attack. Additionally, theproposed CQD protocol is shown to be unconditionally secure against an untrusted service providerand both the protocols are shown more secure against the intercept resend attack as compared tothe qubit based LM05/DL04 protocol.
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 um switch, where two operations act in a quantum superposition of the two possible orders. Here we realise a photonic quantum switch, where polarisation coherently controls the order of two operations, $hat{A}$ and $hat{B}$, on the transverse spatial mode of the photons. Our setup avoids the limitations of earlier implementations: the operations cannot be distinguished by spatial or temporal position. We show that our quantum switch has no definite causal order, by constructing a causal witness and measuring its value to be 18 standard deviations beyond the definite-order bound.
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 ntum system in a path superposition state. Entanglement between its proper time and position is explored as a resource for the implementation of the quantum switch. The realization of the proposed protocol would probe the physical regime described by quantum mechanics on curved spacetimes, which has not yet been explored experimentally.

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 out by a two-photon interference scheme. We investigate the security issue of utilizing this modified coherent state in quantum cryptography. A 4 dB improvement in secure data rate or a nearly two-fold increase in transmission distance over the coherent state are found. With a recently proposed and improved encoding strategy, further improvement is possible.
