Quantum information with continuous variables
نویسندگان
چکیده
Quantum information is a rapidly advancing area of interdisciplinary research. It may lead to real-world applications for communication and computation unavailable without the exploitation of quantum properties such as nonorthogonality or entanglement. This article reviews the progress in quantum information based on continuous quantum variables, with emphasis on quantum optical implementations in terms of the quadrature amplitudes of the electromagnetic field.

Quantum cloning and key distribution with continuous variables
Quantum information with continuous variables is a paradigm which has attracted a growing interest lately, as a consequence of the prospect for high-rate quantum communication systems that may result from the use of standard telecommunication components. After introducing the concept of quantum continuous variables in optics, we turn to the fundamental impossibility of cloning continuous-variab...
متن کاملQuantum Cloning with Continuous Variables
Quantum information theory has developed dramatically over the past decade, driven by the prospects of quantum-enhanced communication and computation systems. Among the most striking successes, one finds for example the discovery of quantum factoring, quantum key distribution, or quantum teleportation. Most of these concepts were initially developed for discrete quantum variables, in particular...

Quantum information processing with continuous variables is a paradigm that has attracted a growing interest over the past years, partly as a consequence of the prospects for high-rate quantum communication systems based on standard optical telecommunication components. In this overview article, we introduce the concept of quantum continuous variables in optics and then turn to the fundamental ...
متن کاملTeleportation using continuous variable quantum cloning machine
We show that an unknown quantum state in phase space can be teleported via three-mode entanglement generated by continuous variable quantum cloning machine (transformation). Further, proceeding with our teleportation protocol we are able to improve the fidelity of teleportation obtained by Loock et.al. [Phys.Rev.Lett. 84, 3482(2000)]. Also we study here the entanglement between the two output c...
متن کاملLong-distance continuous-variable quantum key distribution by controlling excess noise
Quantum cryptography founded on the laws of physics could revolutionize the way in which communication information is protected. Significant progresses in long-distance quantum key distribution based on discrete variables have led to the secure quantum communication in real-world conditions being available. However, the alternative approach implemented with continuous variables has not yet reac...
