Quantum steering with imprecise measurements

Armin Tavakoli

We study quantum steering experiments without assuming that the trusted party can perfectly control their measurement device. Instead, we introduce a scenario in which these measur…

Semidefinite programming relaxations for quantum correlations

Armin Tavakoli, Alejandro Pozas-Kerstjens, Peter Brown +1

Semidefinite programs are convex optimisation problems involving a linear objective function and a domain of positive semidefinite matrices. Over the last two decades, they have be…

Compression of Entanglement Improves Quantum Communication

Yu Guo, Hao Tang, Jef Pauwels +7

Shared entanglement can significantly amplify classical correlations between systems interacting over a limited quantum channel. A natural avenue is to use entanglement of the same…

Post-quantum nonlocality in the minimal triangle scenario

Alejandro Pozas-Kerstjens, Antoine Girardin, Tamás Kriváchy +2

We investigate network nonlocality in the triangle scenario when all three parties have no input and binary outputs. Through an explicit example, we prove that this minimal scenari…

Resource-efficient high-dimensional entanglement detection via symmetric projections

Simon Morelli, Marcus Huber, Armin Tavakoli

We introduce two families of criteria for detecting and quantifying the entanglement of a bipartite quantum state of arbitrary local dimension. The first is based on measurements i…

Weak entanglement improves quantum communication using only product measurements

Amélie Piveteau, Alastair A. Abbott, Sadiq Muhammad +2

We show that weakly entangled states can improve communication over a qubit channel using only separate, interference-free, measurements of individual photons. We introduce a commu…

Correspondence between entangled states and entangled bases under local transformations

Florian Pimpel, Martin J. Renner, Armin Tavakoli

We investigate whether pure entangled states can be associated to a measurement basis in which all vectors are local unitary transformations of the original state. We prove that fo…

Certification of non-classicality in all links of a photonic star network without assuming quantum mechanics

Ning-Ning Wang, Alejandro Pozas-Kerstjens, Chao Zhang +6

Networks composed of independent sources of entangled particles that connect distant users are a rapidly developing quantum technology and an increasingly promising test-bed for fu…

Quantum key distribution rates from semidefinite programming

Mateus Araújo, Marcus Huber, Miguel Navascués +2

Computing the key rate in quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols is a long standing challenge. Analytical methods are limited to a handful of protocols with highly symmetric meas…

Almost qudits in the prepare-and-measure scenario

Jef Pauwels, Stefano Pironio, Erik Woodhead +1

Quantum communication is often investigated in scenarios where only the dimension of Hilbert space is known. However, assigning a precise dimension is often an approximation of wha…

Classical Cost of Transmitting a Qubit

Martin J. Renner, Armin Tavakoli, Marco Túlio Quintino

We consider general prepare-and-measure scenarios in which Alice can transmit qubit states to Bob, who can perform general measurements in the form of positive operator-valued meas…

Entanglement-assisted quantum communication with simple measurements

Amélie Piveteau, Jef Pauwels, Emil Håkansson +3

Dense coding is the seminal example of how entanglement can boost qubit communication, from sending one bit to sending two bits. This is made possible by projecting separate partic…

Entanglement swapping and quantum correlations via Elegant Joint Measurements

Cen-Xiao Huang, Xiao-Min Hu, Yu Guo +8

We use hyper-entanglement to experimentally realize deterministic entanglement swapping based on quantum Elegant Joint Measurements. These are joint projections of two qubits onto…

Recycling nonlocality in a quantum network

Ya-Li Mao, Zheng-Da Li, Anna Steffinlongo +6

It has recently been discovered that the nonlocality of an entangled qubit pair can be recycled for several Bell experiments. Here, we go beyond standard Bell scenarios and investi…

Entanglement detection with imprecise measurements

Simon Morelli, Hayata Yamasaki, Marcus Huber +1

We investigate entanglement detection when the local measurements only nearly correspond to those intended. This corresponds to a scenario in which measurement devices are not perf…

Projective measurements are sufficient for recycling nonlocality

Anna Steffinlongo, Armin Tavakoli

Unsharp measurements are widely seen as the key resource for recycling the nonlocality of an entangled state shared between several sequential observers. Contrasting this, we here…
