• Abstract: Measurement-device-independent (MDI) quantum information processing tasks are important subroutines in quantum information science because they are robust against any type of measurement imperfections. In this work, we propose a framework of MDI resource characterization protocols that unifies and generalizes these tasks. We show that resources that do not increase under local operation and shared randomness can be characterized with any untrusted measurement, and we provide a general procedure to convert such resource characterization tasks into MDI protocols. We then focus on applying our framework to two cases that satisfy the criteria: the resource theory of bipartite and multipartite entanglement, and the resource theory of quantum memories. We demonstrate several MDI characterization protocols for these resources. These protocols are either novel or generalize existing ones from the literature. We also show that MDI quantum key distribution can be viewed as an MDI quantification protocol for quantum memory.

  Blind quantum computation (BQC) is a secure quantum computation method that protects the privacy of clients. 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.

  Quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) uses the quantum channel to transmit information reliably and securely. In order to eliminate the security loopholes resulting from practical detectors, the measurement-device-independent (MDI) QSDC protocol has been proposed. We propose a single-photon-memory MDI QSDC protocol (SPMQC) for dispensing with high-performance quantum memory.

  Continuous-variable quantum key distribution (QKD) employs the quadratures of a bosonic mode to establish a secret key between two remote parties. We consider a protocol with homodyne detection in the general setting of composable finite-size security. In particular, we analyze the high signal-to-noise regime which requires the use of high-rate (non-binary) low-density parity check codes.
