Device-independent quantum secret sharing using Mermin-type contextuality
We present a new quantum secret sharing protocol based on recent advances in Mermin-type contextuality scenarios, which is provably secure against postquantum nonsignaling attackers. It is a fundamental assumption of secret sharing protocols that not all players are trusted parties, and that some may collude amongst themselves and with eavesdroppers to break confidentiality. To this extent, qua...
متن کاملHidden Variables Simulating Quantum Contextuality Increasingly Violate the Holevo Bound
In this paper we approach some questions about quantum contextuality with tools from formal logic. In particular, we consider an experiment associated with the PeresMermin square. The language of all possible sequences of outcomes of the experiment is classified in the Chomsky hierarchy and seen to be a regular language. Next, we make the rather evident observation that a finite set of hidden f...
متن کاملContextuality in Phase Space.
We present a general framework for contextuality tests in phase space using displacement operators. First, we derive a general condition that a single-mode displacement operator should fulfill in order to construct Peres-Mermin square and similar scenarios. This approach offers a straightforward scheme for experimental implementations of the tests via modular variable measurements. In addition ...
متن کامل“Haunted” quantum contextuality
Two entangled particles in threedimensional Hilbert space (per particle) are considered in an EPR-type arrangement. On each side the Kochen-Specker observables {J 1 , J 2 2 , J 2 3 } and {J̄ 2 1 , J̄ 2 2 , J 2 3 } with [J 2 1 , J̄ 2 1 ] 6= 0 are measured. The outcomes of measurements of J 3 (via J 2 1 , J 2 2 ) and J 2 3 (via J̄ 1 , J̄ 2 2 ) are compared. We investigate the possibility that, althoug...
متن کاملQuantum Cryptographic Security from Contextuality
Quantum mechanics is contextual, that is, the outcome of a measurement does depend on how that value is measured. This somewhat bizarre, non-classical feature is a consequence of the Kochen-Specker theorem, which asserts that there is no non-contextual hidden variable theory that reproduces quantum theory. Contextuality is a property of quantum systems with Hilbert spaces of d > 2, as it can be...
