Limitations of local update recovery in stabilizer-GKP codes: a quantum optimal transport approach

Robert König, Cambyse Rouzé

Local update recovery seeks to maintain quantum information by applying local correction maps alternating with and compensating for the action of noise. Motivated by recent constru…

The entropy power inequality for quantum systems

Robert Koenig, Graeme Smith

When two independent analog signals, X and Y are added together giving Z=X+Y, the entropy of Z, H(Z), is not a simple function of the entropies H(X) and H(Y), but rather depends on…

Unconditional security from noisy quantum storage

Robert Koenig, Stephanie Wehner, Juerg Wullschleger

We consider the implementation of two-party cryptographic primitives based on the sole assumption that no large-scale reliable quantum storage is available to the cheating party. W…

The operational meaning of min- and max-entropy

Robert Koenig, Renato Renner, Christian Schaffner

We show that the conditional min-entropy Hmin(A|B) of a bipartite state rho_AB is directly related to the maximum achievable overlap with a maximally entangled state if only local…

Sampling of min-entropy relative to quantum knowledge

Robert Koenig, Renato Renner

Let X_1, ..., X_n be a sequence of n classical random variables and consider a sample of r positions selected at random. Then, except with (exponentially in r) small probability, t…
