Opis zadań:

Project title: “Design of friendly for environment processing of quantum resources and cost of
security of quantum communication networks” (referred to below as DIFFQRN)
Researchers across Europe, within the Quantum Internet Alliance team and other teams worldwide, are making a strong effort to build a fully functioning Quantum Internet. The task is challenging since one encounters inherent difficulties when designing entanglement networks due to decoherence and the quantum no-cloning principle. Since the generation of the secure key is one of the main applications in the future Quantum Internet, the special focus will be on expressing the cost of it in terms of the invested secure key, developing resource theory of private key. The broad vision of a part of this project is to develop quantum Internet in an optimal, least costly way.
The candidate as the key member of the DIFFQRN project will conduct scientific research, contribute to writing publications, and present obtained results at conferences and seminars.
