• Abstract summary: We propose a self-testing protocol for certifying binary Pauli measurements employing the violation of a Leggett-Garg inequality. Unlike previously proposed self-testing protocols in the prepare and measure scenario, our approach requires neither dimensional restrictions, nor other stringent assumptions on the type of measurements.

• Abstract: Characterization of quantum devices received from unknown providers is a significant primary task for any quantum information processing protocol. Self-testing protocols are designed for this purpose of certifying quantum components from the observed statistics under a set of minimal assumptions. Here we propose a self-testing protocol for certifying binary Pauli measurements employing the violation of a Leggett-Garg inequality. The scenario based on temporal correlations does not require entanglement, a costly and fragile resource. Moreover, unlike previously proposed self-testing protocols in the prepare and measure scenario, our approach requires neither dimensional restrictions, nor other stringent assumptions on the type of measurements. We further analyse the robustness of this hitherto unexplored domain of self-testing of measurements.

  Self-testing of quantum devices based on observed measurement statistics is a method to certify quantum systems using minimal resources. We propose a self-testing protocol to certify the above two-qubit states and measurements without the assumption of compatibility conditions. Our protocol is based on the observation of sequential correlations leading to the maximal violation of a temporal inequality derived from non-contextuality inequality.

It is crucial to verify whether the resource graph states are accurately prepared in the adversarial scenario. Here, we propose a robust and efficient protocol for verifying arbitrary graph states with any prime local dimension.

• Certifying Temporal Correlations [0.0]
  We build upon previous works which used semi-definite programming (SDP) based methods to bound sequential measurement inequalities. We consider a generalised scenario in presence of quantum channels and draw analogies in the structure of Bell and sequential inequalities. These analogies allow us to show a practical use of maximal violations of sequential inequalities in the form of certification of quantum channels up to isometries.

  Estimating the uncertainty of a neural network plays a fundamental role in safety-critical settings.
