Security Of Finite-Key-Length Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution Using Arbitrary Number Of Decoys

H. F. Chau

In quantum key distribution, measurement-device-independent and decoy-state techniques enable the two cooperative agents to establish a shared secret key using imperfect measuremen…

Chau-Wang-Wong17 Scheme Is Experimentally More Feasible Than The Six-State Scheme

H. F. Chau, Zhen-Qiang Yin, Shuang Wang +2

Recently, Chau et al. [Phys. Rev. A 95, 022311 (2017)] reported a quantum-key-distribution (QKD) scheme using four-dimensional qudits. Surprisingly, as a function of the bit error…

Application Of McDiarmid Inequality In Finite-Key-Length Decoy-State Quantum Key Distribution

H. F. Chau

In practical decoy-state quantum key distribution, the raw key length is finite. Thus, deviation of the estimated single photon yield and single photon error rate from their respec…

Qudit-Based Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution Using Linear Optics

H. F. Chau, Cardythy Wong, Qinan Wang +1

Measurement-device-independent (MDI) method is a way to solve all detector side-channel attacks in quantum key distribution (QKD). However, very little work has been done on experi…

State-Independent Error-Disturbance Tradeoff For Measurement Operators

S. S. Zhou, Shengjun Wu, H. F. Chau

In general, classical measurement statistics of a quantum measurement is disturbed by performing an additional incompatible quantum measurement beforehand. Using this observation,…

No Superluminal Signaling Implies Unconditionally Secure Bit Commitment

H. F. Chau, C. -H. Fred Fung, H. -K. Lo

Bit commitment (BC) is an important cryptographic primitive for an agent to convince a mutually mistrustful party that she has already made a binding choice of 0 or 1 but only to r…
