Extremal Quantum Correlations and Cryptographic Security

Extremal Quantum Correlations and Cryptographic Security

We investigate a fundamental property of device-independent security in quantum cryptography by characterizing probability distributions which are necessarily independent of the measurement results of any eavesdropper. We show that probability distributions that are secure in this sense are exactly the extremal quantum probability distributions. This allows us to give a …
