Ultimate communication capacity of quantum optical channels by solving the Gaussian minimum-entropy conjecture
V. Giovannetti, R. Garcia-Patron, N. J. Cerf +1
Optical channels, such as fibers or free-space links, are ubiquitous in today's telecommunication networks. They rely on the electromagnetic field associated with photons to carry…
Quantum simulation of bosonic-fermionic non-interacting particles in disordered systems via quantum walk
Francesco De Nicola, Linda Sansoni, Andrea Crespi +6
We report on the theoretical analysis of bosonic and fermionic non-interacting systems in a discrete two-particle quantum walk affected by different kinds of disorder. We considere…
Photon correlations for colloidal nanocrystals and their clusters
O. A. Shcherbina, G. A. Shcherbina, M. Manceau +7
Images of semiconductor `dot in rods' and their small clusters are studied by measuring the second-order correlation function with a spatially resolving ICCD camera. This measureme…
An experimental proposal for a Gaussian amendable quantum channel
Daniela Buono, Gaetano Nocerino, Alberto Porzio +3
We propose a quantum optics experiment where a single two-mode Gaussian entangled state is used for realizing the paradigm of an amendable Gaussian channel recently presented in Ph…
Quantum state majorization at the output of bosonic Gaussian channels
Andrea Mari, Vittorio Giovannetti, Alexander S. Holevo
Quantum communication theory explores the implications of quantum mechanics to the tasks of information transmission. Many physical channels can be formally described as quantum Ga…
A solution of the Gaussian optimizer conjecture
V. Giovannetti, A. S. Holevo, R. Garcia-Patron
The long-standing conjectures of the optimality of Gaussian inputs for Gaussian channel and Gaussian additivity are solved for a broad class of covariant or contravariant Bosonic G…
