Optimal quantum teleportation protocols for fixed average fidelity

Abstract

We demonstrate that among all quantum teleportation protocols giving rise to the same average fidelity, those with aligned Bloch vectors between input and output states exhibit the minimum average trace distance. This defines optimal protocols. Furthermore, we show that optimal protocols can be interpreted as the perfect quantum teleportation protocol under the action of correlated one-qubit channels. In particular, we focus on the deterministic case, for which the final Bloch vector length is equal for all measurement outcomes. Within these protocols, there exists one type that corresponds to the action of uncorrelated channels: these are depolarizing channels. Thus, we established the optimal quantum teleportation protocol under a very common experimental noise.
