Quantum Journal Club: Experimental Passive Round-Robin Differential Phase-Shift
Abstract: In quantum key distribution (QKD), the bit error rate is used to estimate the information leakage and hence determines the amount of privacy amplification—making the final key private by s...

Quantum Journal Club: Quantum Szilard Engine
Abstract: The Szilard engine (SZE) is the quintessence of Maxwell’s demon, which can extract the work from a heat bath by utilizing information. We present the first complete quantum analysis of the...

Black-box Quantum Computing
Abstract: Modern programming relies on our ability to treat preprogrammed functions as black boxes - we can invoke them as subroutines without knowing their physical implementation. Here we show it i...

Reachability analysis of quantum Markov chains and quantum Markov decision proce
Abstract: We introduce the notion of quantum Markov decision process (qMDP) as a semantic model of nondeterministic and concurrent quantum programs. It is shown by examples that qMDPs can be used in ...
