The applications of EPR steering in quantum teleportation for two- or three-qubit system

Abstract

EPR steering is an important quantum resource in quantum information and computation. In this paper, its applications in quantum teleportation are investigated. First of all, the upper bound of the average teleportation fidelity based on the EPR steering is derived. When the receiver can only perform the identity or the Pauli rotation operations, the X-type states which violate the three-setting linear steering inequality could be used for teleportation. In the end, the steering observables and the average teleportation fidelities of the two-qubit reduced states for three-qubit pure states maintain the same ordering. The complementary relations between the steerable observables and the average teleportation fidelities for three-qubit pure states are also established.
