High-Fidelity Remote Graph State Preparation for Blind Quantum Computation

Abstract:Measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) relies on entangled graph states, yet existing remote state preparation (RSP) protocols prepare only separable states, requiring subsequent entangling gates on the remote server. Here, we introduce Remote Graph State Preparation (RGSP), a framework that prepares arbitrary graph states directly from a single high-dimensional photonic qudit. By encoding multiple qubits and their graph connectivity into the photon's structured phase profile, RGSP can reduce or, for small computations, completely eliminate the need for server-side entangling operations among qubits. We show that under a reasonable noise model the resulting state fidelity is independent of the graph topology. Under cumulative fiber phase drift, we demonstrate that this fidelity is significantly enhanced by a ``highest-weight-first'' mode reordering strategy. Finally, we show that RGSP enables reduced-SWAP universal blind quantum computing on arbitrary topologies, reducing qubit overhead e.g., for a six-qubit Quantum Fourier Transform from $420$ RSP qubits with a standard brickwork topology to $48$ RSP qubits. These results establish RGSP as a resource-efficient, topology-invariant primitive for quantum-secured cloud computing.
