quantum-computingRealistic Simulation of Quantum Repeater with Encoding and Classical Error Correction
--> Quantum Physics arXiv:2605.06928 (quant-ph) [Submitted on 7 May 2026] Title:Realistic Simulation of Quantum Repeater with Encoding and Classical Error Correction Authors:Sagar Patange, Caitao Zhan, Bikun Li, Joaquin Chung, Allen Zang, Liang Jiang, Rajkumar Kettimuthu View a PDF of the paper titled Realistic Simulation of Quantum Repeater with Encoding and Classical Error Correction, by Sagar Patange and 6 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Quantum repeaters are essential for scalable long-distance quantum networking. As quantum information processing moves toward fault-tolerant and error-corrected operations, it becomes increasingly important to study quantum repeaters that also move beyond raw physical entanglement and towards logical entanglement. In this paper, we implement and simulate the quantum repeater with encoding and classical error correction (QRE-CEC) protocol in SeQUeNCe, a discrete-event simulator of quantum networks. The protocol distributes logical Bell pairs, performs encoded entanglement swapping, and uses classical error correction for the decoding of entanglement swapping measurement outcomes to determine Pauli-frame corrections. For this study, we extend SeQUeNCe with a stabilizer-based backend, add support for CSS code-based encoded operations, and integrate gate, measurement, idle decoherence, and state-initialization noise models. Our simulation results show that QRE-CEC suppresses all modeled errors to the second order. Also, QRE-CEC can distribute logical Bell pairs with 0.91 fidelity over a distance of 2000 km under the parameter regimes we study. Beyond protocol-level performance evaluation, our implementation exposes practical simulator and control-plane challenges that are typically abstracted away in theoretical studies.

Bloq Quantum Launches No-Code Platform to Accelerate Algorithm Development Bloq Quantum, an India-based startup founded by alumni of IISER and the University of Toronto, has announced the official launch of its low-code quantum computing platform. The software is designed to streamline the research and development lifecycle by providing a visual, drag-and-drop interface for building quantum programs. According to the company, the platform reduces the time required for setup and experimentation by a factor of 10x, addressing the “technical busywork”—such as environment configuration and SDK integration—that typically occupies a significant portion of a researcher’s workflow. Unified Workspace for Hybrid Workflows The Bloq Quantum platform functions as a centralized hub that connects various quantum software development kits (SDKs) and hardware backends. The architecture is divided into three primary modules: Experiment Tab: A no-code environment where users can select algorithms from pre-built libraries, upload proprietary datasets, and execute runs on various quantum processors without manual coding. Visual Circuit Studio: A specialized editor for designing custom Parameterized Quantum Circuits (PQCs), feature maps, and ansaetze. These components can be exported directly into the experiment module for rapid iteration. Editor Tab: A full Jupyter Notebook interface that allows developers to take generated code and build complex, hybrid quantum-classical workflows with programmatic control over CPU and GPU clusters. Focus on Real-World Data Integration A core objective of the platform is to facilitate the transition from theoretical experiments to data-driven business use cases.

quantum-computingPQShield: 4 Quantum Threats Enterprises Must Address Now
The US National Security Agency identifies “harvest now, decrypt later” (HNDL) attacks as a credible and ongoing risk, revealing that adversaries are already positioning themselves to exploit the future capabilities of quantum computers. While cryptographically relevant quantum computers are still under development, experts currently expect their emergence within the next 10 to 15 years, a surprisingly near timeframe that demands immediate attention from enterprises. This urgency stems from the vulnerability of current public key cryptography, relied upon by protocols like TLS and VPNs, and the lengthy process required to migrate to quantum-safe solutions. According to the World Economic Forum, a significant majority of organizations anticipate quantum computing will impact cybersecurity within the next decade, yet many remain in the early stages of preparation, creating a potential crisis as industry standards evolve. Performance and scalability Post-quantum algorithms can introduce additional overhead in terms of computation, bandwidth, and storage Industry leaders predict a significant re-evaluation of infrastructure capacity as organizations transition to post-quantum cryptography, driven by the inherent computational demands of these new algorithms. Current public key systems like RSA and elliptic curve cryptography have long provided a foundation for secure communications, but the emergence of viable quantum computers necessitates a shift that will not be seamless. Post-quantum algorithms introduce measurable overhead in computation, bandwidth, and storage requirements, forcing a trade-off between enhanced security and existing system performance. This year will see increased scrutiny of these trade-offs, particularly within sectors acutely sensitive to latency, such as high-frequency trading platforms and real-time data analytics pipelines, where even marginal delays can have substantial consequences. Looking ahead, the impact on network infrastructure will b

quantum-computingCurious how people here are approaching “real-world” constraints in quantum systems (especially outside toy setups).
My background is in applied quantum work across QKD simulation, post-quantum cryptography implementation, and hybrid quantum-classical models. Across all of these, I keep running into the same pattern: things that look solid in theory or small-scale experiments start breaking once you introduce realistic constraints like noise, resource limits, system-level interactions, or imperfect data. For example: - in QKD-style setups, performance can shift significantly once you model network-level constraints (resource allocation, traffic patterns, error rates), not just protocol behavior - in PQC, migration strategies that look clean on paper become messy when you account for legacy systems, operational timelines, and real attack surfaces - in hybrid QML workflows, standard metrics can completely miss failure modes caused by data leakage or unstable training dynamics In all cases, the challenge ends up being less about “does the method work” and more about: - how it behaves under realistic constraints - how you validate it beyond idealized benchmarks - how you detect and handle failure modes early I’m curious how others here are approaching this gap between theory and deployment: - How do you stress-test quantum or hybrid systems beyond standard benchmarks? - What failure modes have you seen that aren’t obvious from theory? - How do you decide something is actually “robust enough” to matter in practice? Would be great to hear experiences from others working on applied or system-level problems. Also open to connecting with people working in similar areas. Moreover, how are you guys discovering potential opportunities in this field. submitted by /u/frostt_23 [link] [comments]

quantum-computingNew Chip Cuts Power Use for Post-Quantum Security
Wireless medical devices, including critical implants like pacemakers and insulin pumps, are now potentially shielded from future quantum computing attacks thanks to a new microchip developed at MIT. Researchers have created an ultra-efficient design that brings computationally demanding post-quantum cryptography techniques to energy-constrained edge devices previously unable to support them; the chip is comparable in size to a fine needle tip. This innovation addresses a growing vulnerability as quantum computers advance and threaten to break current data security schemes. “Tiny edge devices are everywhere, and biomedical devices are often the most vulnerable attack targets because power constraints prevent them from having the most advanced levels of security,” says Seoyoon Jang, lead author of the research and an MIT electrical engineering and computer science graduate student. “We’ve demonstrated a very practical hardware solution to secure the privacy of patients.” Quantum Threats Drive Post-Quantum Cryptography Development The escalating threat of quantum computing is driving the development of specialized hardware to safeguard sensitive data, particularly within vulnerable edge devices. Researchers at MIT have engineered an ultra-efficient microchip designed to implement post-quantum cryptography techniques on wireless biomedical devices, such as pacemakers and insulin pumps, which traditionally lack the power reserves for such computationally intensive security measures. These devices, often considered prime targets for malicious actors, are now receiving a focused defense against future attacks capable of breaking current encryption standards. The impetus for this development stems from the anticipated ability of quantum computers to compromise established security schemes; agencies like the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are preparing to phase out traditional cryptography in favor of more robust post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algori

quantum-computingSilence Laboratories Launches First Quantum-Safe Vault for Assets
Silence Laboratories has launched a commercial digital asset vault engineered to withstand attacks from future quantum computers, positioning the firm as a responder to escalating cybersecurity threats. The new vault integrates ML-DSA, the post-quantum digital signature standard finalized by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology in 2024, with existing Multi-Party Computation systems. This addresses a critical vulnerability, as many current MPC-based custody solutions still rely on signature schemes susceptible to quantum breaches. “Digital asset custody already depends heavily on Multi-Party Computation, but most existing systems still rely on signature schemes that were not built to withstand quantum threats,” said Andrei Bytes, Co-Founder and CTO of Silence Laboratories. Silence Laboratories’ infrastructure allows institutions to upgrade to quantum-safe security without abandoning their current MPC security model, offering a less disruptive path to enhanced protection. NIST ML-DSA Standard Secures Digital Asset Custody This proactive step positions the company as a leader in a security arena rapidly demanding quantum resilience, as institutions grapple with the implications of increasingly powerful computational capabilities. Silence Laboratories’ infrastructure distinguishes itself by enabling firms to upgrade security protocols without a complete overhaul of existing systems, a critical advantage for organizations already invested in complex security architectures. The new vault combines ML-DSA with MPC, distributing signing authority across multiple parties to enhance security while simultaneously adopting cryptography designed to resist attacks from quantum computers. This hybrid approach allows institutions to maintain the operational benefits of MPC, such as distributed control and governance, while fortifying their defenses against a potentially disruptive technological shift.

IonQ and Florida LambdaRail Launch U.S. Statewide Quantum-Safe Network IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) and Florida LambdaRail (FLR) have announced a Master Service Agreement to deploy a quantum-safe communication network across the state of Florida. Announced at the 2026 eMerge Americas Conference, the initiative marks the first phase of a broader effort to transition critical fiber infrastructure toward physics-based, quantum-secure protection. The initial project involves a 100-mile quantum corridor linking three research and education institutions between Palm Beach County and Miami-Dade County. The system utilizes IonQ’s Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) technology, which leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to detect interception attempts on encrypted data. Unlike traditional mathematical encryption, which is susceptible to future decryption by advanced quantum computers, QKD provides a “harvest now, decrypt later” defense by ensuring that encryption keys cannot be copied without alerting the network. This terrestrial fiber deployment follows IonQ’s recent international expansions in Switzerland and Romania, further establishing the company’s role in global quantum infrastructure. Florida LambdaRail, a nonprofit connecting 13 university partners and 58 affiliates via a 1,540-mile dark fiber network, will serve as the backbone for the rollout. By moving quantum-secure communications from laboratory settings to real-world deployment, the initiative aims to build a resilient ecosystem for public and private sector applications in finance, healthcare, and defense. Following the completion of the three-node corridor, the partners intend to scale the connectivity statewide, integrating more of Florida’s educational and research institutions into the quantum-safe network. You can find the official announcement regarding the Florida quantum-safe network here. Technical context on IonQ’s global deployment of QKD infrastructure can be found at the IonQ Newsroom here.

Ripple has set a target of 2028 to fully prepare the XRP Ledger for the advent of post-quantum cryptography. The company is actively addressing a risk researchers now identify as “harvest now, decrypt later,” where current blockchain data is collected and stored for future exploitation once quantum computing power advances. To accelerate this critical development, Ripple is collaborating with Project Eleven on validator testing and early custody prototypes, moving beyond research into concrete solutions. Recent research from Google Quantum AI is bringing renewed attention to what quantum computing could mean for the crypto industry, highlighting the urgency for long-term security of digital assets on the XRPL. Quantum Threat to Blockchain Assets & XRPL Exposure The increasing power of quantum computing presents a credible, if delayed, threat to the cryptographic foundations of blockchain technology, prompting proactive measures from networks like the XRP Ledger (XRPL). While current encryption standards remain secure, researchers now recognize a distinct risk of “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks, where malicious actors collect encrypted blockchain data anticipating future decryption capabilities. This shifts the conversation from a purely theoretical danger to one demanding immediate attention, particularly for assets held over extended periods. Ripple is introducing a multi-phase roadmap aiming for full post-quantum readiness of the XRPL by 2028. This is not simply research; it’s a declared finish line, underpinned by collaboration with Project Eleven to accelerate development. Their work includes validator testing and the creation of early custody prototypes, demonstrating a commitment beyond theoretical exploration. XRPL already has the building blocks in place to support future migration, with a built-in user experience that makes upgrades easier over time. At the account level, XRPL supports native key rotation, which means users can move away from poten
