2.1. Tensor representation of qudit states
Suppose Alice and Bob plan to teleport the unknown d-
level state |ϕA and unknown d-level state |ϕB to each
other. With the help of tensor representation, the two
states can be expressed as

|ϕA = x j |j, |ϕB = y k |k, (1)

Moreover, a general six-qudit entangled state was se-
lected as the initial quantum channel, which has the fol-
