Motivated by the problem of designing quantum repeaters, we study entanglement distillation between two parties, Alice and Bob, starting from a mixed state and with the help of "repeater" stations. To treat the case of a single repeater, we…
Correlation boxes are hypothetical systems capable of producing the maximal algebraic violation of Bell inequalities, beyond the quantum bound and without superluminal signaling. The fact that these systems show stronger correlations than…
Local pure states are an important resource for quantum computing. The problem of distilling local pure states from mixed ones can be cast in an information theoretic paradigm. The bipartite version of this problem where local purity must…
We analyze three quantum communication protocols that have been proposed in the literature, and compare how well they communicate single-rail entanglement. We use specific metrics for output state purity and probability of success and…
Given the goal of maximizing CHSH violation, we compare the optimal strategies of entanglement and nonlocality distillation. In the limit of the number of copies of the shared state, entanglement distillation is guaranteed to work by…
Apart from the Bell nonlocality, which deals with the correlations generated from the local input-output statistics, quantum theory exhibits another kind of nonlocality that involves the indistiguishability of the locally preparable set of…
Quantum networking relies on the management and exploitation of entanglement. Practical sources of entangled qubits are imperfect, producing mixed quantum state with reduced fidelity with respect to ideal Bell pairs. Therefore, an important…
We investigate non-locality distillation protocols for isotropic correlations. These correlations are the hardest instances which respect to distillability and only partial results are known about their behaviour under non-locality…
Acin et al. introduced a unified framework for the study of no-signalling correlations. Such a framework is based on the notion of local quantum measurements, but, in order to account for beyond-quantum correlations, global pseudo-states…
We consider the task of distilling local purity from a noisy quantum state $\rho^{ABC}$, wherein we provide a protocol for three parties, Alice, Bob and Charlie, to distill local purity (at a rate $P$) from many independent copies of a…
We have studied the possibility of post-quantum theories more nonlocal than the (standard) quantum theory using the modification of the quantum probability rule under the no-signaling condition. For this purpose we have considered the…
A non-local box is an abstract device into which Alice and Bob input bits x and y respectively and receive outputs a and b respectively, where a, b are uniformly distributed and the parity of a+b equals xy. Such boxes have been central to…
We investigate non-locality distillation using measures of non-locality based on the Elitzur-Popescu-Rohrlich decomposition. For a certain number of copies of a given non-local correlation, we define two quantities of interest: (i) the…
Bell nonlocality exemplifies the most profound departure of quantum theory from classical realism. Yet, the extent of nonlocality in quantum theory is intrinsically bounded, falling short of the correlations permitted by the relativistic…
We devise a protocol in which general non-classical multipartite correlations produce a physically relevant effect, leading to the creation of bipartite entanglement. In particular, we show that the relative entropy of quantumness, which…
Near-term and early fault-tolerant quantum computing architectures are expected to exhibit highly non-uniform error rates. In particular, local operations within a chip can be substantially more reliable than operations connecting different…
We propose a simple simulation of nonlocal quantum correlations among $N$ qubits using a local hidden variable source with a positive probability distribution, given that each the $N$ observers has access to a local negative bit. Notably,…
We study the consequences of 'super-quantum non-local correlations' as represented by the PR-box model of Popescu and Rohrlich, and show PR-boxes can enhance the capacity of noisy interference channels between two senders and two receivers.…
Non-locality can be quantified by the violation of a Bell inequality. Since this violation may be amplified by local operations an alternative measure has been proposed - distillable non-locality. The alternative measure is difficult to…
