• Abstract: The concept of weak value exhibits numerous intriguing characteristics, leading to unexpected and potentially advantageous phenomena. In this paper, we analyze, from a computational perspective, the performance of the weak measurement protocol for measuring the weak value within various noise channels. A mathematical framework is developed for addressing the less explored case of noise acting on the primary rather than probe system. We pinpoint specific instances where the sensitivity to noise is reduced quadratically with the weak measurement protocol while this cannot be achieved with the standard measurement protocol. Specifically, when confronted with the challenge of learning an operator under the influence of either a Pauli noise channel, a unital noise channel, or an amplitude and phase damping channel, the weak measurement of the weak value can yield significant benefits. Notably, in the first two cases, and especially in the context of the unital noise channel, initializing the system in the maximally mixed state (but postselecting it in a pure state) has proven to be particularly advantageous.

• Continuous-variable quantum key distribution with noisy squeezed states [0.0]
  We address the role of noisy squeezing in security and performance of continuous-variable (CV) quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols. The noise of the squeezed states, that unavoidably originates already from optical loss in the source, raises concerns about its potential exploitation by an eavesdropper. We show that anti-squeezing noise is typically more harmful for security of the protocols, as it potentially provides more information to an eavesdropper.

The contribution of the new DP mechanism to the convergence and accuracy of privacy-preserving FL is corroborated, compared to the state-of-the-art Gaussian noise mechanism with a persistent noise amplitude.
