Vardoyan, G.S. (author), van Milligen, Emily (author), Guha, Saikat (author), Wehner, S.D.C. (author), Towsley, Don (author)We consider the problem of multipath entanglement distribution to a pair of nodes in a quantum network consisting of devices with nondeterministic entanglement swapping capabilities. Multipath entanglement distribution enables a network to establish end-to-end entangled links across any number of available paths with preestablished link-level...journal article 2024

Bozhidarova, Malvina (author), Ball, Frank (author), van Gennip, Y. (author), O’Dea, Reuben D. (author), Stupfler, Gilles (author)This paper proposes a novel framework for modelling the spread of financial crises in complex networks, combining financial data, Extreme Value Theory and an epidemiological transmission model. We accommodate two key aspects of contagion modelling: fundamentals-based contagion, where the transmission is due to direct financial linkages, and...journal article 2024

Speksnijder, Robert (author)Quantum random walks are the quantum analogs of classical random walks and appear to be promising tools to design fast quantum algorithms. Therefore it is important to study their time-related features and see how these differ compared to the classical case. For the discrete-time quantum walk on the line it has been shown that the probability to...bachelor thesis 2023

Filius, M. (author), van Wee, R.G. (author), Joo, C. (author)Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a photophysical phenomenon that has been repurposed as a biophysical tool to measure nanometer distances. With FRET by DNA eXchange, or FRET X, many points of interest (POIs) in a single object can be probed, overcoming a major limitation of conventional single-molecule FRET. In FRET X, short...book chapter 2023

MIYAWAKI, YU (author)Entanglement is an essential resource for a variety of applications, such as distributed quantum computing and quantum cryptography. However, long-distance entanglement generation is challenging because of two reasons: photon loss occurs as an exponential function of distance through an optical fiber and the no-cloning theorem prevent us from...master thesis 2022

(author), Roitman, Dolev (author), Arie, Ady (author)Spatial modes of light can be used as carriers of information in classical optical communication or as an alphabet in quantum optical communication. In order to exploit the spatial domain, it is required to (de)multiplex different modes from a shared input channel into different output ports. Mode sorters have been employed in free-space and...journal article 2022

Tongjing, Wang (author), Meijers, Evert (author), Wang, H. (author)Cities relate to other cities in many ways, and much scholarly effort goes into uncovering those relationships. Building on the principle that strongly related cities will co-occur frequently in texts, we propose a novel method to classify those toponym co-occurrences using a lexicon-based text-mining method.

Filius, M. (author), Kim, S.H. (author), Severins, I.W.H. (author), Joo, C. (author)Single-molecule FRET is a versatile tool to study nucleic acids and proteins at the nanometer scale. However, currently, only a couple of FRET pairs can be reliably measured on a single object, which makes it difficult to apply single-molecule FRET for structural analysis of biomolecules. Here, we present an approach that allows for the...journal article 2021
