Probabilistic Cutoffs in Homogeneous Quantum Repeater Chains
Jeroen Grimbergen, Stav Haldar, Alvaro Gomez Inesta +1
We study quantum repeater chains in which entangled links between neighbouring nodes are created through heralded entanglement generation and adjacent links are swapped as soon as…
Entanglement buffering with multiple quantum memories
Ãlvaro 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…
Quantum Circuit Switching with One-Way Repeaters in Star Networks
Ãlvaro G. Iñesta, Hyeongrak Choi, Dirk Englund +1
Distributing quantum states reliably among distant locations is a key challenge in the field of quantum networks. One-way quantum networks address this by using one-way communicati…
Entanglement buffering with two quantum memories
Bethany Davies, Ãlvaro G. Iñesta, Stephanie Wehner
Quantum networks crucially rely on the availability of high-quality entangled pairs of qubits, known as entangled links, distributed across distant nodes. Maintaining the quality o…
Continuously Distributing Entanglement in Quantum Networks with Regular Topologies
Lars Talsma, Ãlvaro G. Iñesta, Stephanie Wehner
Small interconnected quantum processors can collaborate to tackle quantum computational problems that typically demand more capable devices. These linked processors, referred to as…
Surrogate-guided optimization in quantum networks
Luise Prielinger, Ãlvaro G. Iñesta, Gayane Vardoyan
We propose an optimization algorithm to improve the design and performance of quantum communication networks. When physical architectures become too complex for analytical methods,…
