Abstract

Motivated by protocols [G. Gordon, G. Rigolin, Phys. Rev. A 73 (2006) 062316] and [N.B. An, G. Mahler, Phys. Lett. A 365 (2007) 70], we propose a linear optical protocol for quantum state sharing of polarization entangled state in terms optical elements. Our protocol can realize a near-complete quantum state sharing of polarization entangled state with arbitrary coefficients, and it is possible to achieve unity fidelity transfer of the state if the parties collaborate. This protocol can also be generalized to the multi-party system.
