Abstract: Quantum teleportation is one of the fundamental building blocks of quantum Shannon theory. While ordinary teleportation is simple and efficient, port-based teleportation (PBT) enables applications such as universal programmable quantum processors, instantaneous non-local quantum computation and attacks on position-based quantum cryptography. In this work, we determine the fundamental limit on the performance of PBT: for arbitrary fixed input dimension and a large number N of ports, the error of the optimal protocol is proportional to the inverse square of N. We prove this by deriving an achievability bound, obtained by relating the corresponding optimization problem to the lowest Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian on the ordered simplex. We also give an improved converse bound of matching order in the number of ports. In addition, we determine the leading-order asymptotics of PBT variants defined in terms of maximally entangled resource states. The proofs of these results rely on connecting recently-derived representation-theoretic formulas to random matrix theory. Along the way, we refine a convergence result for the fluctuations of the Schur-Weyl distribution by Johansson, which might be of independent interest.


Quantum teleportation is a primitive widely used in quantum information science for transmission of unknown quantum state between systems using shared entanglement, joint measurement, classical communication and correction operation. Port-based teleportation (PBT) is a specific variant of such protocol, when a correction operation of receiver is a choice of one among several subsystems (`ports'). However, PBT may not implement ideal state transfer if number of ports is finite. Fundamental limits of PBT fidelity for arbitrary finite input dimension and a large number of ports are estimated in this work. Authors use methods from representation theory of symmetric and unitary groups for analyse of probability distributions on a set of random matrices necessary to describe the quantum measurement in PBT.
