Inflated Graph States Refuting Communication-Assisted LHV Models

Uta Isabella Meyer, Frédéric Grosshans, Damian Markham

Standard Bell inequalities hold when distant parties are not allowed to communicate. Barrett et al. found correlations from Pauli measurements on certain network graphs refute a lo…

Non-Destructive Zero-Knowledge Proofs on Quantum States, and Multi-Party Generation of Authorized Hidden GHZ States

Léo Colisson, Frédéric Grosshans, Elham Kashefi

We propose the first generalization of the famous Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge (NIZK) proofs to quantum languages (NIZKoQS) and we provide a protocol to prove advanced properties…

Witnessing Wigner Negativity

Ulysse Chabaud, Pierre-Emmanuel Emeriau, Frédéric Grosshans

Negativity of the Wigner function is arguably one of the most striking non-classical features of quantum states. Beyond its fundamental relevance, it is also a necessary resource f…

Error-correcting entanglement swapping using a practical logical photon encoding

Paul Hilaire, Edwin Barnes, Sophia E. Economou +1

Several emerging quantum technologies, including quantum networks, modular and fusion-based quantum computing, rely crucially on the ability to perform photonic Bell state measurem…

Classical simulation of Gaussian quantum circuits with non-Gaussian input states

Ulysse Chabaud, Giulia Ferrini, Frédéric Grosshans +1

We consider Gaussian quantum circuits supplemented with non-Gaussian input states and derive sufficient conditions for efficient classical strong simulation of these circuits. In p…

Detecting a target with quantum entanglement

Giacomo Sorelli, Nicolas Treps, Frederic Grosshans +1

In the last decade a lot of research activity focused on the use of quantum entanglement as a resource for remote target detection, i.e. on the design of a quantum radar. The liter…

Stellar representation of non-Gaussian quantum states

Ulysse Chabaud, Damian Markham, Frédéric Grosshans

The so-called stellar formalism allows to represent the non-Gaussian properties of single-mode quantum states by the distribution of the zeros of their Husimi Q-function in phase-s…
