Device-independent quantum cryptography is a method for exchanging
secret messages over potentially insecure quantum communication
channels, such as optical fibers. In contrast to conventional
quantum cryptography, security is guaranteed even if the devices
used by the communication partners, such as photon sources and
detectors, deviate from their theoretical specifications. This is
of high practical relevance, for attacks to current implementations
of quantum cryptography exploit exactly such deviations.
Device-independent cryptography is however technologically so
demanding that it looked as if experimental realizations are out of
reach. In her thesis, Rotem Arnon-Friedman presents powerful
information-theoretic methods to prove the security of
device-independent quantum cryptography. Based on them, she is able
to establish security in a parameter regime that may be
experimentally achievable in the near future. Rotem
Arnon-Friedman's thesis thus provides the theoretical foundations
for an experimental demonstration of device-independent quantum
cryptography.
