UCQM: A Six-Metric Quality Framework for Continuous-Variable Cluster States
Saman Sarshar
Continuous-variable (CV) cluster states constitute one of the central resources for measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC). Despite substantial progress in their theoretical…

Self-Sifting quantum key distribution
Saman Sarshar, Mostafa Annabestani
In this paper, we introduce a novel two-way quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol in which the sender (Alice) and receiver (Bob) employ one qubit of a maximally entangled Bell st…

Introducing the Correlation Concentration Ratio (CCR): Quantitative Framework for Comparing Quantum Cluster States
Amin Ahadi, Saman Sarshar
In this paper, numerical simulations of four-mode continuous-variable cluster states with different topologies in the framework of measurement-based quantum computation are present…
