摘要

We consider the generation of randomness based upon the observed violation of an Einstein-Podolsky - Rosen (EPR) steering inequality, known as one-sided device-independent randomness generation. We show that in the simplest scenario-involving only two parties and two measurements for the uncharacterised party with d outcomes-that there exist EPR steering inequalities whose maximal violation certifies maximal randomness generation, equal to log(d) bits. We further show that all pure partially entangled full-Schmidt-rank states in all dimensions can achieve maximal violation of these inequalities, and thus lead to maximal randomness generation in the one-sided device-independent setting. More generally, the amount of randomness that can be generated is given by a semidefinite program, which we use to study the behavior for nonmaximal violations of the inequalities.
