Title Quantum Darwinism Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume (down) 5 Issue 3 Pages 181-188
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract Quantum Darwinism describes the proliferation, in the environment, of multiple records of selected states of a quantum system. It explains how the quantum fragility of a state of a single quantum system can lead to the classical robustness of states in their correlated multitude; shows how effective `wave-packet collapse' arises as a result of the proliferation throughout the environment of imprints of the state of the system; and provides a framework for the derivation of Born's rule, which relates the probabilities of detecting states to their amplitudes. Taken together, these three advances mark considerable progress towards settling the quantum measurement problem.

Title Quantum information theory: The bits don't add up Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume (down) 5 Issue Pages 247 - 248
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract A counterexample to the 'additivity question', the most celebrated open problem in the mathematical theory of quantum information, casts doubt on the possibility of finding a simple expression for the information capacity of a quantum channel.

Title Continuous-variable quantum cryptography using two-way quantum communication Type Journal Article
Year 2008 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.
Volume (down) 4 Issue 9 Pages 726-730
Keywords fromIPMRAS
Abstract Quantum cryptography has recently been extended to continuous-variable systems, such as the bosonic modes of the electromagnetic field possessing continuous degrees of freedom. In particular, several cryptographic protocols have been proposed and experimentally implemented using bosonic modes with Gaussian statistics. These protocols have shown the possibility of reaching very high secret key rates, even in the presence of strong losses in the quantum communication channel. Despite this robustness to loss, their security can be affected by more general attacks where extra Gaussian noise is introduced by the eavesdropper. Here, we show a `hardware solution' for enhancing the security thresholds of these protocols. This is possible by extending them to two-way quantum communication where subsequent uses of the quantum channel are suitably combined. In the resulting two-way schemes, one of the honest parties assists the secret encoding of the other, with the chance of a non-trivial superadditive enhancement of the security thresholds. These results should enable the extension of quantum cryptography to more complex quantum communications.
