Multi-Boundary Many-Body Quantum Teleportation
Abstract
Unlike standard quantum teleportation, many-body teleportation uses scrambling to transmit quantum information. In this protocol, initially localized information spreads over many degrees of freedom and is later refocused at the receiver by a simple coupling between the systems, followed by further many-body evolution. The protocol was developed from models of traversable wormholes in holography and has become a useful probe of scrambling. In particular, it can distinguish genuine scrambling from decoherence or noise when out-of-time-order correlators fail, and can reveal signatures of different scrambling mechanisms, including the distinctive behavior expected in holographic systems. Holography predicts that related protocols can transmit information between selected boundaries of multi-boundary wormhole geometries. Motivated by this setting, we study single-qubit many-body teleportation among three systems of qubits. The initial state consists of EPR pairs distributed among them, providing a simple analogue of an infinite-temperature three-boundary holographic state. We analyze the protocol with one-dimensional and all-to-all dynamics, both analytically and numerically using random circuits. We find that the third system suppresses teleportation once the spreading message reaches the region of qubits that are entangled with it. In one dimension, both the minimum coupling required for successful teleportation and the fidelity depend on the distance from the injection site to this region, a feature reminiscent of holographic causal shadows. For all-to-all dynamics, successful teleportation is instead restricted to early times and to sufficiently few qubits entangled with the third system. A third system therefore provides spatial, or subsystem, resolution of information spreading that is absent from the two-sided protocol. Our results offer a step toward many-body teleportation networks.
