Device-independent quantum cryptography with input leakage

Abstract

Device-independence is the gold standard of quantum cryptography. To meet this standard, a central assumption is that no information leakage occurs during protocol execution. We relax this assumption by analyzing CHSH-based randomness certification and key distribution with partial leakage of the inputs, modeled in terms of a noisy channel. Our results quantify the certifiable local randomness and the secret key rate as a function of the magnitude of the input leakage.
