Effects of Reduced Measurement Independence on Bell-Based Randomness Expansion

Dax Enshan Koh, Michael J. W. Hall, Setiawan +5 more

With the advent of quantum information, the violation of a Bell inequality is used to witness the absence of an eavesdropper in cryptographic scenarios such as key distribution and randomness expansion. One of the key assumptions of Bell's theorem is the existence of experimental "free will," meaning that measurement settings can be chosen at random and independently by each party. The relaxation of this assumption potentially shifts the balance of power towards an eavesdropper. We consider a no-signaling model with reduced "free will" and bound the adversary’s capabilities in the task of randomness expansion.

Semi-device-independent randomness expansion with partially free random sources using 3→1 quantum random access code

Yuqian Zhou, Fei Gao, Dandan Li +2 more

We have proved that new randomness can be certified by partially free sources using $2\ensuremath{\rightarrow}1$ quantum random access code (QRAC) in the framework of semi-device-independent (SDI) protocols [Y.-Q. Zhou, H.-W. Li, Y.-K. Wang, D.-D. Li, F. Gao, and Q.-Y. Wen, Phys. Rev. A 92, 022331 (2015)]. To improve the effectiveness of the randomness generation, here we propose the SDI randomness expansion using $3\ensuremath{\rightarrow}1$ QRAC and obtain the corresponding classical and quantum bounds of the two-dimensional quantum witness. Moreover, we get the condition which should be satisfied by the partially free sources to successfully certify new randomness, and the analytic relationship between the certified randomness and the two-dimensional quantum witness violation.

The Effect of Higher‐Order Cumulants in the Random‐Field Ising Model

V. Janiš

Abstract It is shown that below a critical dimension dc = 4 higher‐order random‐field cumulants contribute to the divergent part of the free energy. They renormalize the standard diagrammatic expansion into the most divergent terms in weak random fields in such a way that the perturbative effective dimensionality in the scaling region of the d < 4 model is two. It is argued that any dimensional reduction based on a diagrammatic expansion is doubtful in lower dimensions.
