We demonstrate nonclassicality in many basic networks such as entanglement-assisted point-to-point and multi-point channels. Our approaches could be implemented on quantum networking hardware and used to automatically establish certain protocols.

• Abstract: To quantify quantum advantage in communication networks, we apply an operational framework for witnessing quantum nonclassicality. Following previous approaches in the field, this framework first computes linear constraints on the input/output probabilities that arise in classical networks when the amount of communication is bounded. We then apply variational quantum algorithms to optimize these probabilities when quantum communication resources are introduced. Any violation of the classical constraints indicates that extra classical communication is needed to simulate the comparable quantum network, thereby demonstrating an explicit quantum advantage. We demonstrate nonclassicality in many basic networks such as entanglement-assisted point-to-point and multi-point channels. In all examples, we find that equipping classical or quantum channels with entanglement leads to nonclassicality, whereas networks having multiple senders do not require entanglement to achieve nonclassicality. Finally, we discuss how our approaches could be implemented on quantum networking hardware and used to automatically establish certain protocols.
