Introduction of the Research Group

Quantum communication solutions: quantum key sharing systems - wired and satellite. Quantum channel modeling, media access solutions. Scalability issues in quantum networks (internet). Development of urban, national and cross-border quantum key sharing systems as part of the EU's efforts. Application of classical optical networks for the transmission of quantum information. Solving classically high computational problems on quantum informatics principles. Methods of programming quantum computers. Development of quantum random number generation solutions.
