• Abstract: Fidelity estimation is a crucial component for the quality control of entanglement distribution networks. This work studies a scenario in which multiple nodes share noisy Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states. Due to the collapsing nature of quantum measurements, the nodes randomly sample a subset of noisy GHZ states for measurement and then estimate the average fidelity of the unsampled states conditioned on the measurement outcome. By developing a fidelity-preserving diagonalization operation, analyzing the Bloch representation of GHZ states, and maximizing the Fisher information, the proposed estimation protocol achieves the minimum mean squared estimation error in a challenging scenario characterized by arbitrary noise and the absence of prior information. Additionally, this protocol is implementation-friendly as it only uses local Pauli operators according to a predefined sequence. Numerical studies demonstrate that, compared to existing fidelity estimation protocols, the proposed protocol reduces estimation errors in both scenarios involving independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) noise and correlated noise.

  In deep reinforcement learning, estimating the value function is essential to evaluate the quality of states and actions. A recent study suggested that the error distribution for training the value function is often skewed because of the properties of the Bellman operator. We proposed a method called Symmetric Q-learning, in which the synthetic noise generated from a zero-mean distribution is added to the target values to generate a Gaussian error distribution.

  A trusted device scenario assumes that an adversary has no access to imperfections such as electronic noises in the detector is expected to provide significant improvement in the key rate. Here, we develop a simple and general treatment that can incorporate the effects of Gaussian trusted noises for any protocol that uses homodyne/heterodyne measurements. In our method, a rescaling of the outcome of a noisy homodyne/heterodyne detector renders it equivalent to the outcome of a noiseless detector with a tiny additional loss.

  Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows the establishment of common cryptographic keys among distant parties. Recently, a QKD protocol that circumvents the need for monitoring signal disturbance, has been proposed and demonstrated in initial experiments. We derive the security proofs of the round-robin differential phase-time-shifting protocol in the collective attack scenario. Our results show that the RRDPTS protocol can achieve higher secret key rate in comparison with the RRDPS, in the condition of high quantum bit error rate.
