A Dynamic Multiplexing Policy for a Quantum Repeater
Jeroen Grimbergen, Sounak Kar, Michal van Hooft +2
We consider a multiplexed quantum repeater that distributes entanglement between two end nodes. Multiplexing is achieved through optical integration of many quantum chips. Each chi…
On Utility-optimal Entanglement Routing in Quantum Networks
Sounak Kar, Arpan Mukhopadhyay
Quantum networks are envisioned to enable reliable distribution and manipulation of quantum information across distances, forming the foundation of a future quantum internet. The f…
Requirements for Teleportation in an Intercity Quantum Network
Soubhadra Maiti, Guus Avis, Sounak Kar +1
We investigate the hardware requirements for quantum teleportation in an intercity-scale network topology consisting of two metropolitan-scale networks connected via a long-distanc…
Entanglement buffering with multiple quantum memories
Álvaro G. Iñesta, Bethany Davies, Sounak Kar +1
Entanglement buffers are systems that maintain high-quality entanglement, ensuring it is readily available for consumption when needed. In this work, we study the performance of a…
Convexification of the Quantum Network Utility Maximisation Problem
Sounak Kar, Stephanie Wehner
Network Utility Maximisation (NUM) addresses the problem of allocating resources fairly within a network and explores the ways to achieve optimal allocation in real-world networks.…
