Security proof of practical quantum key distribution with detection-efficiency mismatch

Yanbao Zhang, Patrick J. Coles, Adam Winick +2

Quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols with threshold detectors are driving high-performance QKD demonstrations. The corresponding security proofs usually assume that all physica…

Tsirelson Polytopes and Randomness Generation

Peter Bierhorst, Yanbao Zhang

We classify the extreme points of a polytope of probability distributions in the (2,2,2) CHSH-Bell setting that is induced by a single Tsirelson bound. We do the same for a class o…

Experimental Realization of Device-Independent Quantum Randomness Expansion

Ming-Han Li, Xingjian Zhang, Wen-Zhao Liu +12

Randomness expansion where one generates a longer sequence of random numbers from a short one is viable in quantum mechanics but not allowed classically. Device-independent quantum…

Eavesdropper's ability to attack a free-space quantum-key-distribution receiver in atmospheric turbulence

Poompong Chaiwongkhot, Katanya B. Kuntz, Yanbao Zhang +6

The ability of an eavesdropper (Eve) to perform an intercept-resend attack on a free-space quantum key distribution (QKD) receiver by precisely controlling the incidence angle of a…

Experimental Low-Latency Device-Independent Quantum Randomness

Yanbao Zhang, Lynden K. Shalm, Joshua C. Bienfang +10

Applications of randomness such as private key generation and public randomness beacons require small blocks of certified random bits on demand. Device-independent quantum random n…

Bounding the plausibility of physical theories in a device-independent setting via hypothesis testing

Yeong-Cherng Liang, Yanbao Zhang

The device-independent approach to physics is one where conclusions about physical systems (and hence of Nature) are drawn directly and solely from the observed correlations betwee…
