[论文解读] Multi-Source Randomness Extractors Against Quantum Side Information, and their Applications
本文提出了在量子侧信息下的多源随机性提取器的通用纠缠(GE)对抗者模型,证明了强单边对抗者(OA)安全与强GE安全之间的等价性。研究表明,通过仅增加一个额外的独立随机源,经典多源提取器可被适配以在存在量子纠缠侧信息时仍保持安全,从而实现高效的隐私放大和网络提取器。
We study the problem of constructing multi-source extractors in the quantum setting, which extract almost uniform random bits against quantum side information collected from several initially independent classical random sources. This is a natural generalization of seeded randomness extraction against quantum side information and classical independent source extraction. With new challenges such as potential entanglement in the side information, it is not a prior clear under what conditions do quantum multi-source extractors exist; the only previous work is [KK12], where the classical inner-product two-source extractors of [CG88] and [DEOR04] are shown to be quantum secure in the restricted Independent Adversary (IA) Model and entangled Bounded Storage (BS) Model. In this paper we propose a new model called General Entangled (GE) Adversary Model, which allows arbitrary entanglement in the side information and subsumes both the IA model and the BS model. We proceed to show how to construct GE-secure quantum multi-source extractors. To that end, we propose another model called One-sided Adversary (OA) Model, which is weaker than all the above models. Somewhat surprisingly, we establish equivalence between strong OA-security and strong GE-security. As a result, all classical multi-source extractors can either directly work, or be modified to work in the GE model at the cost of one extra random source. Thus, our constructions essentially match the best known constructions of classical multi-source extractors. We also apply our techniques to two important problems in cryptography and distributed computing --- privacy amplification and network extractor. We show that as long as the sources have certain amounts of conditional min-entropy in our GE model (even with entangled quantum side information), we can design very efficient privacy amplification protocols and network extractors.

- 构建了对量子突袭对抗者安全的网络提取器,其误差界在合理熵假设下保持亚指数级小。
- 提取器图的使用有效降低了对抗者控制集的规模,使得在最小熵相对于受控方数量较低时仍能实现安全提取。
