Phase-space approach to continuous variable quantum teleportation
Masashi Ban · Physical Review A · 2004
The phase-space method is applied for considering continuous variable quantum teleportation. It is found that the continuous variable quantum teleportation transforms the $s$-parametrized phase-space function of an input state into the $(s+\ensuremath{\delta})$-parametrized phase-space function, where the parameter $\ensuremath{\delta}$ is determined by the shared quantum entanglement. It is shown from this result that the Wigner function of the teleported state is always non-negative for ${\mathcal{F}}_{c}\ensuremath{\leqslant}2∕3$ and the Glauber-Sudarshan $P$ function non-negative for ${\mathcal{F}}_{c}\ensuremath{\leqslant}1∕2$, where ${\mathcal{F}}_{c}$ is the fidelity of the coherent-state teleportation. Furthermore the fidelity between input and output states is calculated when Gaussian states are teleported.
