Quantum Communication Complexity with Coherent States and Linear Optics

Authors: Juan Miguel Arrazola and Norbert Lütkenhaus

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 27, 9th Conference on the Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography (TQC 2014)


Abstract
We introduce a general mapping for encoding quantum communication protocols involving pure states of multiple qubits, unitary transformations, and projective measurements into another set of protocols that employ coherent states of light in a superposition of optical modes, linear optics transformations and measurements with single-photon threshold detectors. This provides a general framework for transforming a wide class of protocols in quantum communication into a form in which they can be implemented with current technology. In particular, we apply the mapping to quantum communication complexity, providing general conditions under which quantum protocols can be implemented with coherent states and linear optics while retaining exponential separations in communication complexity compared to the classical case. Finally, we make use of our results to construct a protocol for the Hidden Matching problem that retains the known exponential gap between quantum and classical one-way communication complexity.

Abstract
I will try to partially answer, based on a review on recent work, the following question: Can QKD and more generally quantum information be useful to cover some practical security requirements in current (and future) IT infrastructures ? I will in particular cover the following topics - practical performances of QKD - QKD network deployment - SECOQC project - Capabilities of QKD as a cryptographic primitive - comparative advantage with other solution, in order to cover practical security requirements - Quantum information and Side-channels - QKD security assurance - Thoughts about "real" Post-Quantum Cryptography
