Ok, so I've been reading a paper (Here's the paper) published by a physicist named M. Hotta et al. recently and as far as I can tell with my limited understanding, the protocol for the teleportation of energy seems legit. He proposes an experiment whereby the passivity of a vacuum state is broken by local operations and energy is teleported between two subregions of a single edge channel of a quantum hall system. I won't go into the details here, but it is all explained in the paper which is only 4 pages long. I will assume for now that the protocol offered in the paper would be successful in a real world experiment. My question is whether it would still be successful with an alteration. I am proposing an altered version in which the two subregions between which energy is teleported are actually two singular regions in two separate edge channels (one region in each channel) in the vacuum state. By that I mean that there are two separate quantum hall systems (A and B) each in a vacuum state and separated by some arbitrary distance. I am essentially dividing his proposed setup into two distinct setups and asking if it would still render the same result. I hope I have worded this clearly. If there is need for futher clarification, let me know. I would appreciate any insight offered. Thanks
