Generating polarization-entangled photon pairs using cross-spliced birefringent fibers
Evan Meyer-Scott, Vincent Roy, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +3
We demonstrate a novel polarization-entangled photon-pair source based on standard birefringent polarization-maintaining optical fiber. The source consists of two stretches of fibe…
Vanishing quantum discord is not necessary for completely-positive maps
Aharon Brodutch, Animesh Datta, Kavan Modi +2
The description of the dynamics of a system that may be correlated with its environment is only meaningful within the context of a specific framework. Different frameworks rely upo…
Down-conversion source of positively spectrally correlated and decorrelated photon pairs at telecom wavelength
Thomas Lutz, Piotr Kolenderski, Thomas Jennewein
The frequency correlation (or decorrelation) of photon pairs is of great importance in long-range quantum communications and photonic quantum computing. We experimentally character…
Novel High-Speed Polarization Source for Decoy-State BB84 Quantum Key Distribution over Free Space and Satellite Links
Zhizhong Yan, Evan Meyer-Scott, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +5
To implement the BB84 decoy-state quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol over a lossy ground-satellite quantum uplink requires a source that has high repetition rate of short lase…
Perfect State Transfer on Signed Graphs
J. Brown, C. Godsil, D. Mallory +2
We study perfect state transfer of quantum walks on signed graphs. Our aim is to show that negative edges are useful for perfect state transfer. Specific results we prove include:…
Efficient simulation scheme for a class of quantum optics experiments with non-negative Wigner representation
Victor Veitch, Nathan Wiebe, Christopher Ferrie +1
We provide a scheme for efficient simulation of a broad class of quantum optics experiments. Our efficient simulation extends the continuous variable Gottesman-Knill theorem to a l…
