Quantum teleportation using Ising anyons

Anyons have been extensively investigated as information carriers in topological quantum computation. However, how to characterize the information flow in quantum networks composed of anyons is less understood, which motivates us to study quantum communication protocols in anyonic systems. Here we propose a general topologically protected protocol for quantum teleportation based on the Ising anyon model and prove that with our protocol an unknown anyonic state of any number of Ising anyons can be teleported from Alice to Bob. Our protocol naturally generalizes quantum state teleportation from systems of locally distinguishable particles to systems of Ising anyons, which may promote our understandings of anyonic quantum entanglement as a quantum resource. In addition, our protocol is expected to be realized with the Majorana zero modes, one of the possible physical realizations for the Ising anyon in experiments.
