Quantum Privacy Amplification and the Security of Quantum Cryptography over Noisy Channels.

Existing quantum cryptographic schemes are not, as they stand, operable in the presence of noise on the quantum communication channel. Although they become operable if they are supplemented by classical privacy-amplification techniques, the resulting schemes are difficult to analyze and have not bee...
