Key distillation from quantum channels using two-way communication protocols
We provide a general formalism to characterize the cryptographic properties of quantum channels in the realistic scenario where the two honest parties employ prepare and measure protocols and the known two-way communication reconciliation techniques. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition to distill a secret key using this type of schemes for Pauli qubit channels and generalized Pauli c...
متن کاملTwo-way quantum communication channels
We consider communication between two parties using a bipartite quantum operation, which constitutes the most general quantum mechanical model of two-party communication. We primarily focus on the simultaneous forward and backward communication of classical messages. For the case in which the two parties share unlimited prior entanglement, we give inner and outer bounds on the achievable rate r...
متن کاملError tolerance of two-basis quantum key-distribution protocols using qudits and two-way classical communication
We investigate the error tolerance of quantum cryptographic protocols using d-level systems. In particular, we focus on prepare-and-measure schemes that use two mutually unbiased bases and a key-distillation procedure with two-way classical communication. For arbitrary quantum channels, we obtain a sufficient condition for secret-key distillation which, in the case of isotropic quantum channels...
متن کاملSecurity of quantum key distribution protocols using two-way classical communication or weak coherent pulses
A fundamental problem in cryptography is to enable two distant parties, traditionally called Alice and Bob, to communicate in absolute privacy, even in presence of an eavesdropper, Eve. It is a well known fact that a secret key, i.e., a randomly chosen bit string held by both Alice and Bob, but unknown to Eve, is sufficient to perform this task (one-time pad encryption). Thus, the problem of se...

input at terminal 2 and Y2 the corresponding output. Once each second, say, new inputs xi and x2 may be chosen from corresponding input alphabets and put into the channel; outputs yi and Y2 may then be observed. These outputs will be related statistically to the inputs and perhaps historically to previous inputs and outputs if the channel has memory. The problem is to communicate in both direct...
