Optimal entanglement distribution policies in homogeneous repeater chains with cutoffs
Abstract We study the limits of bipartite entanglement distribution using a chain of quantum repeaters that have quantum memories. To generate end-to-end entanglement, each node can attempt the generation of an entangled link with a neighbor, or perform an entanglement swapping measurement. A maximu...
