Combining Error Verification and Privacy Amplification in Quantum Key Distribution
Devashish Tupkary, Zhiyao Wang, Ernest Y. -Z. Tan
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocols typically involve two separate steps of error-verification and privacy amplification. Both steps involve the application of a hash function…
Security framework for practical quantum key distribution with imperfect devices
Jerome Wiesemann, John Burniston, Devashish Tupkary +1
Practical quantum key distribution (QKD) systems inevitably exhibit imperfections in both the source and detector. At the same time, the behavior of these imperfect devices is neve…
Experimental quantum cryptography with single photons and imperfect devices
Aodhán Corrigan, Koray Kaymazlar, Zhiyao Wang +9
Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows for provably secure key distribution between two trusted parties. Because the security and performance of QKD protocols rely on devices that b…
Rigorous Security Proofs for Practical Quantum Key Distribution
Devashish Tupkary
This thesis is concerned with rigorous security analyses of practical Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocols, using a variety of modern proof techniques. The main results are as…
Semidefinite programming for understanding the limitations of Lindblad equations
Soumyadeep Sarma, Manas Kulkarni, Archak Purkayastha +1
Lindbladian quantum master equations (LEs) are the most popular descriptions for quantum systems weakly coupled to baths. But, recent works have established that in many situations…
A rigorous and complete security proof of decoy-state BB84 quantum key distribution
Devashish Tupkary, Shlok Nahar, Amir Arqand +2
We present a rigorous and complete security proof of the decoy-state BB84 quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol. Our analysis aims to achieve a high standard of mathematical rigo…
Authentication in Security Proofs for Quantum Key Distribution
Devashish Tupkary, Shlok Nahar, Ernest Y. -Z. Tan
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocols rely on authenticated classical communication. Typical QKD security proofs are carried out in an idealized setting where authentication is…
