RESUMO

Quantum correlations and nonprojective measurements underlie a plethora of information-theoretic tasks, otherwise impossible in the classical world. Existing schemes to certify such nonclassical resources in a device-independent manner require seed randomness-which is often costly and vulnerable to loopholes-for choosing the local measurements performed on different parts of a multipartite quantum system. In this Letter, we propose and experimentally implement a semi-device-independent certification technique for both quantum correlations and nonprojective measurements without seed randomness. Our test is semi-device independent in the sense that it requires only prior knowledge of the dimension of the parts. We experimentally show a novel quantum advantage in correlated coin tossing by producing specific correlated coins from pairs of photons entangled in their transverse spatial modes. We establish the advantage by showing that the correlated coin obtained from the entangled photons cannot be obtained from two two-level classical correlated coins. The quantum advantage requires performing qubit trine positive operator-valued measures (POVMs) on each part of the entangled pair, thus also certifying such POVMs in a semi-device-independent manner. This proof of concept firmly establishes a new cost-effective certification technique for both generating nonclassical shared randomness and implementing nonclassical measurements, which will be important for future multiparty quantum communications.

RESUMO

Two natural requirements on a measurable quantity possessed by a paraxially propagating light-field to be suitable for free space optical communication are invariance under free space propagation and invariance under transverse plane rotation. While the former invariance ensures that the measurable quantity is robust while signalling through free space, the latter invariance ensures that a detector measuring the quantity can be oriented at any angle in the transverse plane, and a measurement by the detector yields the same value for the quantity irrespective of the transverse angle, thus avoiding alignment issues. The variance matrix of a paraxially propagating light-field is analyzed from the perspective of the aforementioned invariances. That the "charge" of a paraxial light-field, which is contained in the variance matrix, and which has been previously well studied for its suitability toward free space optical communication, possesses these two invariance properties, emerges naturally in the analysis. Seven functionally independent quantities other than charge, which are derived from the variance matrix, and which share these invariances, are presented and studied for their suitability toward signalling through turbulent atmosphere using the low-order Hermite-Gaussian modes. It is found that the spot size of a Gaussian light-field can be effectively used as a switch, to communicate through short distances in a turbulent atmosphere.
