Device-Independent Certification of Maximal Randomness from Pure Entangled Two-Qutrit States Using Non-Projective Measurements

While it has recently been demonstrated how to certify the maximal amount of randomness from any pure two-qubit entangled state in a device-independent way, the problem of optimal randomness certification from entangled states of higher local dimension remains open. Here we introduce a method for de...

Description
Summary:While it has recently been demonstrated how to certify the maximal amount of randomness from any pure two-qubit entangled state in a device-independent way, the problem of optimal randomness certification from entangled states of higher local dimension remains open. Here we introduce a method for device-independent certification of the maximal possible amount of <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mn>2</mn><msub><mo form="prefix">log</mo><mn>2</mn></msub><mn>3</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> random bits using pure bipartite entangled two-qutrit states and extremal nine-outcome general non-projective measurements. To this aim, we exploit a device-independent method for certification of the full Weyl–Heisenberg basis in three-dimensional Hilbert spaces together with a one-sided device-independent method for certification of two-qutrit partially entangled states.
