Secure Coherent-state Quantum Key Distribution Protocols with Efficient Reconciliation
G. Van Assche, S. Iblisdir, N. J. Cerf
We study the equivalence between a realistic quantum key distribution protocol using coherent states and homodyne detection and a formal entanglement purification protocol. Maximal…

Generation of Large Photon-Number Cat States using Linear Optics and Quantum Memory
N. J. Cerf, J. Fiurasek, S. Iblisdir +1
A recursive method for producing path-entangled states of light is presented. These states may find applications in quantum lithography and high-precision interferometric measureme…

Cloning and Cryptography with Quantum Continuous Variables
N. J. Cerf, S. Iblisdir, G. Van Assche
The cloning of quantum variables with continuous spectra is investigated. We define a Gaussian 1-to-2 cloning machine, which copies equally well two conjugate variables such as pos…
