IQC Student Seminar Featuring Itammar Steinberg, Weizmann Institute of Science

Entanglement distillation and DIQKD

QNC building, 200 University Ave. Room 1201, Waterloo 

Quantum entanglement can be quantified in many ways, some of which bear clear operational meanings. The Distillable Entanglement and DIQKD rate are two such measures, speculated to be equivalent as stated by the Revised Peres Conjecture (Friedman and Leditzky, 21). Our research lays foundations to the conjecture’s proof, most notably using the notion of ‘private states’, a family of quantum states that arise naturally in the context of QKD.  Asking questions such as “what kind of private state can be resulted from a certain DIQKD protocol?”, we were able to provide simple sufficient conditions for the Revised Peres Conjecture to hold.

Quantum Repeater Day

Quantum Repeater Day is intended to be a one-day internal event featuring focused discussions in various forms. We believe that constructive deliberation and shared insights within the diverse research community here is imperative for realizing the common goal of constructing functional quantum repeaters.
