• Title: The Schmidt number of a quantum state cannot always be device-independently certified
• Authors: Flavien Hirsch and Marcus Huber
• Abstract summary: We show that there exist quantum states, whose entanglement content, as measured by the Schmidt number, cannot be device-independently certified for all possible sequential measurements on any number of copies. While the bigger question: textitcan the presence of entanglement always be device-independently certified? remains open, we provide proof that quantifying entanglement device-independently is not always possible, even beyond the standard Bell scenario.

• Abstract: One of the great challenges of quantum foundations and quantum information theory is the characterisation of the relationship between entanglement and the violation of Bell inequalities. It is well known that in specific scenarios these two can behave differently, from local hidden-variable models for entangled quantum states in restricted Bell scenarios, to maximal violations of Bell inequalities not concurring with maximal entanglement. In this paper we put forward a simple proof that there exist quantum states, whose entanglement content, as measured by the Schmidt number, cannot be device-independently certified for all possible sequential measurements on any number of copies. While the bigger question: \textit{can the presence of entanglement always be device-independently certified?} remains open, we provide proof that quantifying entanglement device-independently is not always possible, even beyond the standard Bell scenario.

  Storing quantum information requires battling quantum decoherence, which results in a loss of information over time. To achieve error-resistant quantum memory, one would like to store the information in a quantum superposition of degenerate states engineered in such a way that local sources of noise cannot change one state into another. We show that this platform also allows to detect and correct certain types of errors en route to the goal of true error-resistant quantum memory.

  Device-independent quantum key distribution allows for proving the security of a shared cryptographic key. Recent results show that Bell non-locality is in general not sufficient for standard device-independent quantum key distribution. We show that from certain correlations that exhibit arbitrarily small non-locality, one can still extract device-independent key rates.

• Simple Tests of Quantumness Also Certify Qubits [69.96668065491183]
  A test of quantumness is a protocol that allows a classical verifier to certify (only) that a prover is not classical. We show that tests of quantumness that follow a certain template, which captures recent proposals such as (Kalai et al., 2022) can in fact do much more. Namely, the same protocols can be used for certifying a qubit, a building-block that stands at the heart of applications such as certifiable randomness and classical delegation of quantum computation.

• Scalable Bell inequalities for graph states of arbitrary prime local dimension and self-testing [0.0]
  Bell nonlocality -- the existence of quantum correlations that cannot be explained by classical means -- is one of the most striking features of quantum mechanics. This work provides a general construction of Bell inequalities maximally violated by graph states of any prime local dimension. We analytically determine their maximal quantum violation, a number of high relevance for device-independent applications of Bell inequalities.

• Coarse-grained self-testing [0.0]
  We show how a coarse-grained version of self-testing is possible in which physically relevant properties of a many-body system are certified. We prove that a many-body generalization of the chained Bell inequality is maximally violated if and only if the underlying quantum state is equal, up to local isometries, to a many-body singlet.

• Robust self-testing of steerable quantum assemblages and its applications on device-independent quantum certification [0.0]
  Given a Bell inequality, if its maximal quantum violation can be achieved only by a single set of measurements for each party or a single quantum state, up to local unitaries, one refers to such a phenomenon as self-testing. We propose a framework called "robust self-testing of steerable quantum assemblages" Our result is device-independent (DI), i.e., no assumption is made on the shared state and the measurement devices involved.
