Semi device independence of the BB84 protocol

The BB84 quantum key distribution protocol is semi device independent in the sense that it can be shown to be secure if just one of the users’ devices is restricted to a qubit Hilbert space. Here, we derive an analytic lower bound on the asymptotic secret key rate for the entanglement-based version...
