Quantum Teleportation Transfers Qubit States via Entanglement and Classical Bits, Not Matter — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Quantum teleportation transfers a qubit's quantum state via entanglement + 2 classical bits; no matter or energy moves — only information, and the original is destroyed (no-cloning). | MATH: Protocol: Alice holds qubit |ψ⟩=α|0⟩+β|1⟩ (|α|²+|β|²=1) plus half of Bell pair |Φ⁺⟩=(|00⟩+|11⟩)/√2. Total state = (1/2)[|Φ⁺⟩(α|0⟩+β|1⟩) + |Φ⁻⟩(α|0⟩−β|1⟩) + |Ψ⁺⟩(α|1⟩+β|0⟩) + |Ψ⁻⟩(α|0⟩−β|1⟩)]. Alice measures in Bell basis → 4 equiprobable outcomes (prob 1/4 each). Bob applies Pauli correction: I, Z, X, or XZ. Fidelity F=1. Classical channel required (no FTL). | CONNECTION: Bell basis = maximally entangled orthonormal basis of C²⊗C²; the 4 Bell states form the vertices of a regular tetrahedron in the Bloch/Pauli representation — a crystallographic T_d symmetry (order-24 tetrahedral group). The 1/4 probability split is exact partition into 4 equal-amplitude channels. The √2 normalization is the diagonal of a unit square (Pythagorean ratio 1:1:√2). | DEPTH: 7 FINDING: Entanglement is a resour Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
