Multinegativity and single-letter formulas for asymptotic entanglement

Raphael Brinster, Tulja Varun Kondra, Hermann Kampermann +2

The study of entanglement inevitably leads to the concept of regularization, where measures are evaluated on infinitely many copies of a state. Single-letter formulas try to make t…

Sharp Quantum Capacity Thresholds: Exponential Strong Converses for Degradable and Antidegradable Channels

Tulja Varun Kondra, Raphael Brinster, Hermann Kampermann +2

The quantum capacity of a noisy channel quantifies the maximum rate at which quantum information can be transmitted reliably. For general channels, its evaluation requires an optim…

Very Strong Irreversibility of Quantum Entanglement

Tulja Varun Kondra, Raphael Brinster, Hermann Kampermann +2

The manipulation of quantum entanglement is fundamentally irreversible: some mixed entangled states require pure entanglement for their preparation, although no pure entanglement c…

Fundamental limitations on entanglement extraction from purity

Tulja Varun Kondra, Pedro Barrios Hita, Justus Neumann +2

States of sufficiently low purity are separable and cannot be entangled by unital (purity-non-generating) operations. Since high-purity states are experimentally demanding, it is n…

The relative entropy of magic and its nonadditivity

Carolin Deckers, Justus Neumann, Hermann Kampermann +1

In most stabilizer-based quantum computing schemes, so-called magic states are a necessary resource for implementing non-transversal quantum gates. With the resource theory of magi…

Quantum Hypergraph States: A Review

Davide Poderini, Dagmar Bruß, Chiara Macchiavello

Quantum hypergraph states extend the well-studied class of graph states by taking into account multi-qubit interactions through hyperedges. They provide a powerful framework to rep…

Robust certification of non-projective measurements: theory and experiment

Raphael Brinster, Peter Tirler, Shishir Khandelwal +7

Determining the conditions under which positive operator-valued measures (POVMs), the most general class of quantum measurements, outperform projective measurements remains a chall…

Maximally non-projective measurements are not always symmetric informationally complete

Gabriele Cobucci, Raphael Brinster, Shishir Khandelwal +4

Standard quantum measurements are projective. However, the full scope of quantum measurements is represented by positive operator-valued measures (POVMs) and many of these break th…

Spanning-tree-packing protocol for conference key propagation in quantum networks

Anton Trushechkin, Hermann Kampermann, Dagmar Bruß

We consider a network of users connected by pairwise quantum key distribution (QKD) links. Using these pairwise secret keys and public classical communication, the users want to ge…

Quantum mechanics based on real numbers: A consistent description

Pedro Barrios Hita, Anton Trushechkin, Hermann Kampermann +2

Complex numbers play a crucial role in quantum mechanics. However, their necessity remains debated: whether they are fundamental or merely convenient. Recently, it was shown that a…

High-dimensional quantum key distribution with resource-efficient detection

Maciej Ogrodnik, Adam Widomski, Dagmar Bruß +7

While quantum key distribution (QKD) based on two-dimensional (qubit) encoding is a mature, field-tested technology, its performance is lacking for many cryptographic applications.…

Quantum Key Distribution with Basis-Dependent Detection Probability

Federico Grasselli, Giovanni Chesi, Nathan Walk +7

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is a promising technology for secure communication. Nevertheless, QKD is still treated with caution in certain contexts due to potential gaps between…
