Optical Simulation of Quantum Logic
N. J. Cerf, C. Adami, P. G. Kwiat
A systematic method for simulating small-scale quantum circuits by use of linear optical devices is presented. It relies on the representation of several quantum bits by a single p…

On the von Neumann capacity of noisy quantum channels
C. Adami, N. J. Cerf
We discuss the capacity of quantum channels for information transmission and storage. Quantum channels have dual uses: they can be used to transmit known quantum states which code…

Entropic Bell Inequalities
N. J. Cerf, C. Adami
We derive entropic Bell inequalities from considering entropy Venn diagrams. These entropic inequalities, akin to the Braunstein-Caves inequalities, are violated for a quantum mech…
