Practical continuous-variable quantum key distribution with composable security

Nitin Jain, Hou-Man Chin, Hossein Mani +10

A quantum key distribution (QKD) system must fulfill the requirement of universal composability to ensure that any cryptographic application (using the QKD system) is also secure.…

Linear programming bounds for quantum channels acting on quantum error-correcting codes

Yingkai Ouyang, Ching-Yi Lai

While quantum weight enumerators establish some of the best upper bounds on the minimum distance of quantum error-correcting codes, these bounds are not optimized to quantify the p…

Quantum key distribution with non-ideal heterodyne detection: composable security of discrete-modulation continuous-variable protocols

Cosmo Lupo, Yingkai Ouyang

Continuous-variable quantum key distribution exploits coherent measurements of the electromagnetic field, i.e., homodyne or heterodyne detection. The most advanced security proofs…

Quantum hypothesis testing for exoplanet detection

Zixin Huang, Cosmo Lupo

Detecting the faint emission of a secondary source in the proximity of the much brighter source has been the most severe obstacle for using direct imaging in searching for exoplane…

Resource-efficient energy test and parameter estimation in continuous-variable quantum key distribution

Cosmo Lupo

Symmetry plays a fundamental role in the security analysis of quantum key distribution (QKD). Here we review how symmetry is exploited in continuous-variable (CV) QKD to prove the…

Approaching the motional ground state of a 10 kg object

Chris Whittle, Evan D. Hall, Sheila Dwyer +197

The motion of a mechanical object -- even a human-sized object -- should be governed by the rules of quantum mechanics. Coaxing them into a quantum state is, however, difficult: th…
