Exploring the landscape of compact magic-state distillation factories
Hugo Jacinto, Xavier Valcarce, Victor Barizien +2
Producing high-fidelity magic states using the smallest possible number of physical qubits and operations stands as a very important challenge to achieve fault-tolerant quantum com…
Automated generation of photonic circuits for Bell tests with homodyne measurements
Corentin Lanore, Federico Grasselli, Xavier Valcarce +2
Nonlocal quantum realizations, certified by the violation of a Bell inequality, are core resources for device-independent quantum information processing. Although proof-of-principl…
Towards Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution with Photonic Devices
Corentin Lanore, Xavier Valcarce, Jean Etesse +2
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocols enable two distant parties to communicate with information-theoretically proven secrecy. However, these protocols are generally vulnerable…
Unitary Synthesis with AlphaZero via Dynamic Circuits
Xavier Valcarce, Bastien Grivet, Nicolas Sangouard
Unitary synthesis is the process of decomposing a target unitary transformation into a sequence of quantum gates. This is a challenging task, as the number of possible gate combina…
Long-distance device-independent quantum key distribution using single-photon entanglement
Anna Steffinlongo, Mariana Navarro, Marina Cenni +3
Device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) provides the strongest form of quantum security, as it allows two honest users to establish secure communication channels even w…
