Abstract: In distributed quantum computing, quantum networks provide a potential infrastructure for long-range quantum information processing. Controlled quantum teleportation (CQT) is a key practically relevant protocol that can connect two parties on a network and enables a third party, the controller to allow or abort the secure teleportation of an arbitrary single-qubit state between the two parties. We investigate the robustness of a three-qubit GHZ resource under bit-flip, phase-flip, depolarizing, and amplitude-damping noise. Using the Kraus-operator formalism, we characterize the noisy resource through multipartite quantum discord, genuine multipartite concurrence (GMC), localizable entanglement (LE), and CQT fidelity. We also outline a proof-of-concept photonic implementation for preparing the three-qubit GHZ resource and realizing the CQT protocol, which could enable experimental investigation of the effects of noise. Our results show that bit-flip and amplitude-damping noise generally preserve useful mutipartite quantum correlations over broader noise parameter ranges. Interestingly, multipartite discord exhibits freezing under bit-flip noise over a finite parameter regime. Moreover, discord can persist beyond the sudden death of genuine multipartite entanglement, revealing the distinct robustness of nonclassical correlations. We further demonstrate that CQT fidelity which characterizes the performance of CQT can exceed the classical threshold even after GMC vanishes, while LE more closely reflects the operational usefulness of the noisy resource. These findings highlight the complementary roles of quantum correlations and entanglement in assessing the resilience of GHZ-based protocols.
