Unconditional Security of Discrete-Modulated CV-QKD from Infinite-Dimensional MEAT
Lars Kamin, Ian George, John Burniston +1
Discrete-Modulated (DM) Continuous-Variable (CV) Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is an experimentally attractive approach to quantum cryptography, offering high key rates over metro…
Drone- and Vehicle-Based Quantum Key Distribution
Andrew Conrad, Roderick Cochran, Daniel Sanchez-Rosales +17
Quantum key distribution is a point-to-point communication protocol that leverages quantum mechanics to enable secure information exchange. Commonly, the transmitter and receiver s…
Rényi security framework against coherent attacks applied to decoy-state QKD
Lars Kamin, John Burniston, Ernest Y. -Z. Tan
We develop a flexible and robust framework for finite-size security proofs of quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols under coherent attacks, applicable to both fixed- and variabl…
Improved finite-size effects in QKD protocols with applications to decoy-state QKD
Lars Kamin, Devashish Tupkary, Norbert Lütkenhaus
We present a finite-size security proof for generic quantum key distribution protocols against independent and identically distributed collective attacks and extend it to coherent…
Security proofs for practical QKD: variations, techniques, gaps, and limitations
Devashish Tupkary, Ernest Y. -Z. Tan, Shlok Nahar +2
We review the current status of security proofs for practical decoy-state Quantum Key Distribution using the BB84 protocol, focusing on optical implementations with weak coherent p…
Improved Decoy-state and Flag-state Squashing Methods
Lars Kamin, Norbert Lütkenhaus
In this work, we present an improved analysis for decoy-state methods, enhancing both achievable key rates and recovering analytical results for the single intensity scenario. Our…
Finite-size analysis of prepare-and-measure and decoy-state QKD via entropy accumulation
Lars Kamin, Amir Arqand, Ian George +2
An important goal in quantum key distribution (QKD) is the task of providing a finite-size security proof without the assumption of collective attacks. For prepare-and-measure QKD,…
Exact rate analysis for quantum repeaters with imperfect memories and entanglement swapping as soon as possible
Lars Kamin, Evgeny Shchukin, Frank Schmidt +1
We present an exact rate analysis for a secret key that can be shared among two parties employing a linear quantum repeater chain. One of our main motivations is to address the que…
