Step 1: Alice starts with our experimentally measured two-qutrit state.
Uses an entangled, two-part system:(a) the proof and (b) the token
subsystems.Assumption: initial state is only source of imperfection.

Step 4: Alice sends the proof subsystem to Bob to complete the BC protocol. He decodes the message with a two-qutrit projective measurement:
Distinguishability of token states limits Alice’s control (trace-distance):
Non-orthogonal token states limit Bob’s possible knowledge gain (fidelity):

• Quantum process tomography of CNOT – fully characterize the process in the 2-qubit space
– high fidelity operation useful for q. info and q. physics tests
• Generalized measurement and QND – non-destructive; arbitrary strength; any basis
• Qutrit entanglement – measured, characterized for use in communications protocols
