Quantum Routers: A Switching-Fabric Framework for Quantum-Native Forwarding
Jessica Illiano, Caterina De Risi, Angela Sara Cacciapuoti +1
Forwarding in quantum networks cannot be realized by directly transposing classical switching fabrics, since the no-cloning theorem and the quantum measurement postulate constrain…
Entanglement-Based Artificial Topology: Neighboring Remote Network Nodes
Si-Yi Chen, Jessica Illiano, Angela Sara Cacciapuoti +1
Entanglement is unanimously recognized as the key communication resource of the Quantum Internet. Yet, the possibility of implementing novel network functionalities by exploiting t…
Universal Quantum Computation via Superposed Orders of Single-Qubit Gates
Kyrylo Simonov, Marcello Caleffi, Jessica Illiano +2
Superposed orders of quantum channels have already been proved - both theoretically and experimentally - to enable unparalleled opportunities in the quantum communication domain. A…
Quantum Data Centres: Why Entanglement Changes Everything
Angela Sara Cacciapuoti, Claudio Pellitteri, Jessica Illiano +4
The Quantum Internet is key for distributed quantum computing, by interconnecting multiple quantum processors into a virtual quantum computation system. This allows to scale the nu…
Flexible Qubit Allocation of Network Resource States
Francesco Mazza, Jorge Miguel-Ramiro, Jessica Illiano +4
The Quantum Internet is still in its infancy, yet identifying scalable and resilient quantum network resource states is an essential task for realizing it. We explore the use of gr…
QPing: a Quantum Ping Primitive for Quantum Networks
Jorge Miguel-Ramiro, Jessica Illiano, Francesco Mazza +5
We introduce the concept of Quantum Ping (QPing) as a diagnostic primitive for future quantum networks, designed to assess whether two or more end nodes can establish practical qua…
