the article considers the development trends of the high-tech industry of quantum communications. The most popular topologies of quantum communication networks are described, including those with trusted intermediate nodes. The methods of interaction between nodes of the backbone quantum-cryptographic network are given and the main methods of ensuring secure transmission in such networks are presented. A simplified scheme for distributing a quantum secret key between the end segments of the backbone telecommunication network using trusted intermediate nodes is considered. Possible data leakage channels in the general structure of quantum-cryptographic networks are described.
Keywords: quantum communications, quantum key, network topologies, trusted nodes
The article reports about approximation algorithm for Integer Factoriation Problem (IFP) using reduction to optimizing case of SAT problem with 3 literals per clause (MAX-3SAT). A continuous functional that equivivalent MAX-3SAT is builded and solved by simple iteration method with variable neighboordood search and Bayesian rounding. It shown that global minimum of the functional cannot be reached in almost samples because local extremums but arguments of ones can be compared with the exact solution. The experiments show that the developed gybrid algorithm improves earlier version developed by authors. Also this method is analyzed by quantum channels defense In systems of quantum key distribution. A typical structure of one is described.

The article considers the description of the design and construction of the Ultra high frequency mixer on a combination and slotted a microstrip transmission line. Presents the methodology and results of the experiment by analysis the amplitude characteristic. It is shown that the conversion loss equal to 9 dB, the dynamic range of not less than 60 dB, the upper limit of the linearity of the amplitude characteristic is 1mW.
