Quantum internet protocol stack: A comprehensive survey

J Illiano, M Caleffi, A Manzalini, AS Cacciapuoti - Computer Networks, 2022 - Elsevier
Classical Internet evolved exceptionally during the last five decades, from a network
comprising a few static nodes in the early days to a leviathan interconnecting billions of …

Experimental aspects of indefinite causal order in quantum mechanics

LA Rozema, T Strömberg, H Cao, Y Guo, BH Liu… - Nature Reviews …, 2024 - nature.com
In the past decade, the toolkit of quantum information has been expanded to include
processes in which the basic operations do not have definite causal relations. Originally …

Charging quantum batteries via indefinite causal order: Theory and experiment

G Zhu, Y Chen, Y Hasegawa, P Xue - Physical review letters, 2023 - APS
In the standard quantum theory, the causal order of occurrence between events is
prescribed, and must be definite. This has been maintained in all conventional scenarios of …

Indefinite causal order in a quantum switch

K Goswami, C Giarmatzi, M Kewming, F Costa… - Physical review …, 2018 - APS
Quantum mechanics allows events to happen with no definite causal order: this can be
verified by measuring a causal witness, in the same way that an entanglement witness …

Quantum stochastic processes and quantum non-Markovian phenomena

S Milz, K Modi - PRX Quantum, 2021 - APS
The field of classical stochastic processes forms a major branch of mathematics. Stochastic
processes are, of course, also very well studied in biology, chemistry, ecology, geology …

Quantum metrology with indefinite causal order

X Zhao, Y Yang, G Chiribella - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
We address the study of quantum metrology enhanced by indefinite causal order,
demonstrating a quadratic advantage in the estimation of the product of two average …

Experimental quantum communication enhancement by superposing trajectories

G Rubino, LA Rozema, D Ebler, H Kristjánsson… - Physical Review …, 2021 - APS
In quantum communication networks, wires represent well-defined trajectories along which
quantum systems are transmitted. In spite of this, trajectories can be used as a quantum …

Indefinite causal order enables perfect quantum communication with zero capacity channels

G Chiribella, M Banik, SS Bhattacharya… - New Journal of …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Quantum mechanics is compatible with scenarios where the relative order between two
events can be indefinite. Here we show that two independent instances of a noisy process …

Experimental transmission of quantum information using a superposition of causal orders

Y Guo, XM Hu, ZB Hou, H Cao, JM Cui, BH Liu… - Physical review …, 2020 - APS
Communication in a network generally takes place through a sequence of intermediate
nodes connected by communication channels. In the standard theory of communication, it is …

Quantum refrigeration with indefinite causal order

D Felce, V Vedral - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
We propose a thermodynamic refrigeration cycle which uses indefinite causal orders to
achieve nonclassical cooling. The cycle cools a cold reservoir while consuming purity in a …
