We address the quantification of non-Gaussianity (nG) of states and operations in
continuous-variable systems and its use in quantum information. We start by illustrating in …

We address the role of the phase-insensitive trusted preparation and detection noise in the
security of a continuous-variable quantum key distribution, considering the Gaussian …

We demonstrate sub-shot-noise photon-number correlations in a (temporal) multimode
mesoscopic (∼ 10 3 detected photons) twin beam produced by picosecond-pulsed …

The impulsive generation of two-magnon modes in antiferromagnets by femtosecond optical
pulses, so-called femto-nanomagnons, leads to coherent longitudinal oscillations of the …

We consider the problem of distinguishing, with minimum probability of error, two optical
beam-splitter channels with unequal complex-valued reflectivities using general quantum …

Round-robin differential-phase-shift (RRDPS) quantum key distribution (QKD) scheme
provides an effective way to overcome the signal disturbance from the transmission process …

The possibility of using squeezed states in the recently suggested unidimensional
continuous-variable quantum key distribution based on a single quadrature modulation is …

We address the degradation of continuous variable (CV) entanglement in a noisy channel
focusing on the set of photon-number entangled states. We exploit several separability …

Using an all-fiber source of pulsed twin beams, with the record intensity difference
squeezing of 6.1±0.15 dB for fiber optical parametric amplifiers, we experimentally distribute …

We propose a concept of universal coherent source for quantum key distribution. The weak
coherent pulse (WCP) and heralded single photon source (HSPS) are the most common …
