Insider Brief PacketLight and ID Quantique (IDQ) announced joint solutions that will offer quantum-safe security. Combining IDQ’s QKD with PacketLight network encryption equipment enables the retrofit and upgrade of existing fiber optics. The teams say […]
Quantum 7, 1104 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-07-1104 A powerful operational paradigm for distributed quantum information processing involves manipulating pre-shared entanglement by local operations and classical communication (LOCC). The LOCC round complexity of a given task describes how […]
The sun looks immutable, a boring celestial lightbulb that’s always turned on. But this fusion-powered ball of plasma is in constant flux. Every 11 years or so, it swings between slumber and an active, unruly […]
Quantum 7, 1103 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-07-1103 We show that the proof of the generalised quantum Stein’s lemma [Brandão & Plenio, Commun. Math. Phys. 295, 791 (2010)] is not correct due to a gap in the argument […]
Quantum 7, 1102 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-07-1102 Integral representations of quantum relative entropy, and of the directional second and higher order derivatives of von Neumann entropy, are established, and used to give simple proofs of fundamental, known […]
Quantum 7, 1101 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-07-1101 An orthogonal set of states in multipartite systems is called to be strong quantum nonlocality if it is locally irreducible under every bipartition of the subsystems [46]. In this work, […]
Quantum 7, 1100 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-07-1100 The Zeno effect, in which repeated observation freezes the dynamics of a quantum system, stands as an iconic oddity of quantum mechanics. When a measurement is unable to distinguish between […]
The Chern number, an invariant quantity that characterizes topological phases in physical systems, was recently tuned in a controlled fashion by researchers from Tokyo Tech. They achieved this feat in an electronic-nuclear spin system, namely […]
For years, researchers have tried various ways to coax quantum bits—or qubits, the basic building blocks of quantum computers—to remain in their quantum state for ever-longer times, a key step in creating devices like quantum […]
Insider Brief Quantum Computing Inc.and Assured Cyber Protection Ltd signed an agreement to coordinate efforts to market and deliver both companies’ cybersecurity technologies and products. The companies say the products they offer are complementary and […]
