Abstract: Quantum key distribution (QKD) establishes secure links between remote communication partners. As a key problem for various QKD protocols, security analysis gives the number of secret keys ...
Abstract: I will introduce the field of quantum simulations from a wide scientific perspective. Then, I will discuss the relevance of quantum simulations for reproducing different aspects of quantum ...
Abstract: In this talk I will introduce the concept of unphysical operations and I will show how to implement them in standard quantum platforms. Unphysical operations represent a new way of interact...
Abstract: This paper argues that statistical inference of social data (e.g., stock market, human/organizational behavior, etc.) cannot be analyzed with the same statistical tools used in natural scie...
Abstract: While quantum state tomography is notoriously hard, most states hold little interest to practically-minded tomographers. Given that states and unitaries appearing in Nature are of bounded g...
Abstract: A fundamental limit to existing optical techniques for measurement and manipulation of spin degrees of freedom is set by diffraction, which does not allow spins separated by less than about...
