Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution: Difference between revisions

This [https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.07983 example protocol] implements the task of [[Quantum Key Distribution]] (QKD) without relying on any particular description of the underlying hardware system. The protocol enables two parties to establish a classical secret key by distributing an entangled quantum state and checking for the violation of a [[Bell inequality]] in order to certify the security. The output of the protocol is a classical secret key which is completely unknown to any third party, namely an eavesdropper.

* '''Network:''' we assume the existence of an authenticated public classical channel between Alice and Bob.
