Abstract The influence of noise on the remote preparation of a qubit by an entangled pair is investigated. In Bloch sphere representation, we use the trace distance to describe how close the final state is to the original state to be prepared. Our studies include two cases. Firstly, we consider the sender and the receiver sharing a mixture of two Bell states as quantum channel in remote state preparation (RSP), and calculate the trace distance as a function of mixture ratio and angle of a state to be prepared. Secondly, the system--environment interaction is taken into account by including stochastic fluctuating terms in the system Hamiltonian. Solving the Bloch equations, we obtain the evolution density matrix of the system. We then apply this stochastic model to study the effect of noise on the trace distance of RSP.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
