Abstract

We consider a scheme of swapping between two pairs of non-orthogonal entangled coherent states with our suggested modification [H. Prakash, N. Chandra, R. Prakash and Shivani, Int. J. Mod. Phys. B 23(8) (2009) 2083] and discuss effect of decoherence on fidelity in swapping. We find that for odd photon counts, MAF (minimum of the fidelity for any arbitrary information) decreases with increase in |α|2 for low noise but in case of high noise, it increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases with |α|2. However, for nonzero even photon counts, the case is reversed. For this case, MAF decreases with increase in |α|2 for high noise but in case of low noise, it increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases with |α|2. We discuss the variation of average fidelity with |α|2 and show that it depends appreciably on the information for low values of |α|2 only.
