Journal ArticleDOI
Constructing finite-dimensional codes with optical continuous variables
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show how a qubit can be fault-tolerant encoded in the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of an optical mode using a cross-Kerr interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continuous-variable quantum cryptography with an untrusted relay: Detailed security analysis of the symmetric configuration
TL;DR: This work analyzes symmetric eavesdropping strategies against the quantum links explicitly showing that, at fixed transmissivity and thermal noise, two-mode coherent attacks are optimal, manifestly outperforming one-mode collective attacks based on independent entangling cloners.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum reading capacity
TL;DR: In this article, the readout of a classical memory can be modelled as a problem of quantum channel discrimination, where a decoder retrieves information by distinguishing the different quantum channels encoded in each cell of the memory.
Journal Article
Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution using Thermal States
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the security of continuous-variable quantum key distribution using thermal (or noisy) Gaussian resource states and analyzed this against collective Gaussian attacks using direct and reverse reconciliation where both protocols use either homodyne or heterodyne detection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Entanglement swapping with local certification: Application to remote micromechanical resonators
TL;DR: This paper applies entanglement swapping protocol to an initial tripartite systems of two identical cavity optomechanical systems, formed by a micro-mechanical resonator playing the role of the remote mode, coupled to two independently driven optical cavity modes with different frequencies.
