Superdense Coding Emulation on a TI-84 Plus CE-T

Posted by on January 27, 2025

This is sort of the opposite of the Quantum Teleportation we have covered earlier. Here you use quantum bits to transfer classical bits:

We have all the building blocks we need from the previous episode, so let me just show you the additional code:

#Alice bits
a1=1
a2=1
print("Alice bits:",a1,a2)

#Initialize inputs
q=[[1],[0],[0],[0]]

#Build circuit
U=kron(H,I)
U=mult(CNOT,U)

#Encode bits
if a2==1:
  U=mult(kron(X,I),U)
if a1==1:
  U=mult(kron(Z,I),U)

#Run circuit
q=mult(U,q)

#Bob applies gates
q=mult(CNOT,q)
q=mult(kron(H,I),q)

#Bob measurements
b1=qbit(0,M(q))
q=qbitset(0,b1,q)
b2=qbit(1,M(q))
q=qbitset(1,b2,q)

print("Bob measurements:",b1,b2)

So as an example we try to give Bob the bits 1 and 1. Bob does his measurements and this is the result:
