Assessing the performance of quantum repeaters for all phase-insensitive Gaussian bosonic channels

Kenneth Goodenough, David Elkouss, Stephanie Wehner

One of the most sought-after goals in experimental quantum communication is the implementation of a quantum repeater. The performance of quantum repeaters can be assessed by compar…

Entropic uncertainty and measurement reversibility

Mario Berta, Stephanie Wehner, Mark M. Wilde

The entropic uncertainty relation with quantum side information (EUR-QSI) from [Berta et al., Nat. Phys. 6, 659 (2010)] is a unifying principle relating two distinctive features of…

(Nearly) optimal P-values for all Bell inequalities

David Elkouss, Stephanie Wehner

A key objective in conducting a Bell test is to quantify the statistical evidence against a local-hidden variable model (LHVM) given that we can collect only a finite number of tri…

Continuous-Variable Protocols in the Noisy-Storage Model

Fabian Furrer, Christian Schaffner, Stephanie Wehner

We present the first protocol for oblivious transfer that can be implemented with an optical continuous-variable system, and prove its security in the noisy-storage model. This mod…

Independent, extensible control of same-frequency superconducting qubits by selective broadcasting

S. Asaad, C. Dickel, S. Poletto +5

A critical ingredient for realizing large-scale quantum information processors will be the ability to make economical use of qubit control hardware. We demonstrate an extensible st…

Experimental loophole-free violation of a Bell inequality using entangled electron spins separated by 1.3 km

B. Hensen, H. Bernien, A. E. Dréau +16

For more than 80 years, the counterintuitive predictions of quantum theory have stimulated debate about the nature of reality. In his seminal work, John Bell proved that no theory…

Optimized quantum sensing with a single electron spin using real-time adaptive measurements

Cristian Bonato, Machiel S. Blok, Hossein T. Dinani +4

Quantum sensors based on single solid-state spins promise a unique combination of sensitivity and spatial resolution. The key challenge in sensing is to achieve minimum estimation…

Dynamical error bounds for continuum discretisation via Gauss quadrature rules, -- a Lieb-Robinson bound approach

Mischa P. Woods, Martin B. Plenio

Instances of discrete quantum systems coupled to a continuum of oscillators are ubiquitous in physics. Often the continua are approximated by a discrete set of modes. We derive ana…

Repeated quantum error correction on a continuously encoded qubit by real-time feedback

Julia Cramer, Norbert Kalb, M. Adriaan Rol +6

Reliable quantum information processing in the face of errors is a major fundamental and technological challenge. Quantum error correction protects quantum states by encoding a log…

Work and reversibility in quantum thermodynamics

Álvaro M. Alhambra, Stephanie Wehner, Mark M. Wilde +1

It is a central question in quantum thermodynamics to determine how irreversible is a process that transforms an initial state to a final state , and whether such irreversib…

Sifting attacks in finite-size quantum key distribution

Corsin Pfister, Norbert Lütkenhaus, Stephanie Wehner +1

A central assumption in quantum key distribution (QKD) is that Eve has no knowledge about which rounds will be used for parameter estimation or key distillation. Here we show that…

The maximum efficiency of nano heat engines depends on more than temperature

Mischa P. Woods, Nelly Ng, Stephanie Wehner

Sadi Carnot's theorem regarding the maximum efficiency of heat engines is considered to be of fundamental importance in thermodynamics. This theorem famously states that the maximu…

Asynchronous reference frame agreement in a quantum network

Tanvirul Islam, Stephanie Wehner

An efficient implementation of many multiparty protocols for quantum networks requires that all the nodes in the network share a common reference frame. Establishing such a referen…

Understanding nature from experimental observations: a theory independent test for gravitational decoherence

C. Pfister, J. Kaniewski, M. Tomamichel +5

Quantum mechanics and the theory of gravity are presently not compatible. A particular question is whether gravity causes decoherence - an unavoidable source of noise. Several mode…

Superadditivity of private information for any number of uses of the channel

David Elkouss, Sergii Strelchuk

The quantum capacity of a quantum channel is always smaller than the capacity of the channel for private communication. However, both quantities are given by the infinite regulariz…
