Abstract
The performance of a continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) protocol depends on the efficiency of the post-processing of measurement results. The post-processing methods extract statistical information from the raw data, establish the mutual knowledge between the parties, and produce a final key that provides absolute security. Here we define an optimization method for post-processing in continuous-variable quantum key distribution. The optimization framework allows significant performance improvements in the post-processing phase compared to other existing reconciliation approaches.
