Briefings
A new power-of-choice protocol reverses selection criteria in classical explosive percolation to anticipate entanglement percolation transitions, reducing quantum communication resource needs. The study introduces a method using local information without appreciable performance loss, addressing imperfections in entanglement generation and distribution that currently limit distributed quantum states.
Key points
- The power-of-choice protocol reverses selection criteria in the Achlioptas process to anticipate the entanglement percolation transition.
- The protocol enables implementation using local information with no appreciable loss of performance compared to standard protocols.
Context
Quantum communication networks require maximally entangled states, but imperfections limit distributed states to partial entanglement. Existing protocols use local operations and classical communication to create suitably entangled networks. This research introduces a power-of-choice protocol based on reversing selection criteria in the Achlioptas process.
Limitations
Evidence is from an arXiv preprint (arXiv:2611.10119v1) with no peer review or publication status. The study anticipates entanglement percolation transition but does not report experimental results or performance metrics. The specific city, region, or country where the protocol was tested is not mentioned in the provided evidence.
