Practical quantum networking architectures are crucial for scaling the connection of quantum
resources. Yet quantum network testbeds have thus far underutilized the full capabilities of …

As practical quantum networks prepare to serve an ever-expanding number of nodes, there
has grown a need for advanced auxiliary classical systems that support the quantum …

Secret sharing allows a trusted party (the dealer) to distribute a secret to a group of players,
who can only access the secret cooperatively. Quantum secret sharing (QSS) protocols …

We describe and experimentally demonstrate a more practical three-party quantum secret
sharing (QSS) protocol using polarization-entangled photon pairs. The source itself serves …

Practical quantum communication (QC) protocols are assumed to be secure provided
implemented devices are properly characterized and all known side channels are closed …

We propose a continuous-variable quantum secret sharing (CV-QSS) protocol in which the
quantum states are prepared passively using a thermal source. In our protocol, one player …

Controlling the energy of unauthorized light signals in a quantum cryptosystem is an
essential criterion for implementation security. Here, we propose a passive optical power …

The rapid advancement of quantum key distribution technology in recent years has spurred
significant innovation within the field. Nevertheless, a crucial yet frequently underexplored …

Secret sharing is a multiparty cryptographic primitive that can be applied to a network of
partially distrustful parties for encrypting data that is both sensitive (it must remain secure) …

Universal blind quantum computing allows users with minimal quantum resources to
delegate a quantum computation to a remote quantum server, while keeping intrinsically …
