Universality and The Criterion 'd' in Quantum Key Generation
Abstract
The common security criterion d in quantum key distribution is taken to solve the universal composability problem in quantum key distribution as well as providing good general quantitative security guarantee. In this paper it is shown that these are a result of an invalid interpretation of d. The general security significance of d is analyzed in detail. The related issues of universality and attacker's side information are discussed.
