We provide a rigorous security proof of continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution which incorporates finite-size effects and composable terms. In order to use realistic and optimized parameters and be able to derive results close to experimental expectations, we run protocol simulations supported by a Python library, including all the protocol operations, from simulating the quantum communication till the extraction of the final key.
我们提供了一种连续变量测量设备无关量子密钥分发的严格安全性证明,其中纳入了有限尺寸效应和可组合项。为了使用现实且优化的参数,并能够得出接近实验预期的结果,我们运行了由一个Python库支持的协议模拟,包括从模拟量子通信到提取最终密钥的所有协议操作。
