Abstract

In this article, we review the recent development of controlled teleportation which can be used for sharing quantum information and has important applications in remote quantum computation. We introduce the principles of a couple of controlled teleportation schemes with maximally entangled quantum channels and those with pure entangled quantum channels (non-maximally entangled states). The schemes based on maximally entangled states have the advantage of having maximal efficiency although there are differences in their implementations in experiment. In the controlled teleportation schemes using non-maximally entangled states as the quantum channels, the receiver can reconstruct the originally unknown state by adding an auxiliary particle and performing a unitary evolution. No matter what the unknown state is (a single qubit state or an m-qudit state), the auxiliary particle required is only a two-level quantum system.
