Abstract
Quantum teleportation (QT) lies at the heart of modern day quantum information science and technology. Despite extensive studies over past two decades, obtaining the necessary and/or sufficient criterion for QT with continuous-variable (CV) resources, besides entanglement, still remains an open concern. In this backdrop, here we analyze the role of a purely quantum optical (QO) attribute, known as quadrature squeezing, in CV teleportation. We first provide an analytic proof that for Gaussian resources quadrature squeezing is necessary for QT. However, for non-Gaussian resources we show a clear distinction between the pure and the mix states. For the pure states, quadrature squeezing appears to be necessary for QT, in the sense that there is no QT without quadrature squeezing. However, in the case of mix states we observe otherwise, i.e., QT could be achieved even without quadrature squeezing. Our results present the exotic character of the QO attributes of the CV resources and necessitate a deeper search for the necessary and/or sufficient criterion for CV QT.
