A Graphical Rule Book for Clifford Manipulations of Stabilizer States

Abstract: Stabilizer states, along with Clifford manipulations (unitary transformations and measurements) thereof—despite being efficiently simulable on a classical computer—are an important tool in quantum information processing, with applications to quantum computing, error correction, and networking. Graph states, defined on a graph, are a special class of stabilizer states that are central to measurement-based quantum computing, […]

Entanglement Routing in Quantum Networks: A Comprehensive Survey

Entanglement routing in near-term quantum networks consists of choosing the optimal sequence of short-range entanglements to combine through swapping operations to establish end-to-end entanglement between two distant nodes. Similar to traditional routing technologies, a quantum routing protocol uses network information to choose the best paths to satisfy a set of end-to-end entanglement requests. However, in […]

Advance Sharing Procedures for the Ramp Quantum Secret Sharing Schemes With the Highest Coding Rate

Abstract: In some quantum secret sharing schemes, it is known that some shares can be distributed to participants before a secret is given to the dealer. However, it is unclear whether some shares can be distributed before a secret is given in the ramp quantum secret sharing schemes with the highest coding rate. This article […]
