Abstract
In this work, we analyze the performance of various deleting machines and their concatenation. It is observed that concatenation of Pati–Braunstein deleting machine and our deleting machine exhibits the same nonlocal properties. It is observed that concatenation of same deleting machines does not alter the fidelity of deletion and retention. Using negativity as a measure of quantum correlation of successive deleted states, we found that the total correlation created by deleting machines is always greater than that of concatenated deleting machines. For achieving better deletion, we have explored the concatenation of Buzek–Hillery cloning machine with different deleting machines. It is found that the deletion fidelity of concatenation of Buzek–Hillery cloning machine with our deleting machine is more than that of Buzek–Hillery cloning machine with Pati–Braunstein deleting machine for certain combinations of input states and blank states.
