A quantum random number generator certified by value indefiniteness
In this paper we propose a quantum random number generator (QRNG) which utilises an entangled photon pair in a Bell singlet state, and is certified explicitly by value indefiniteness. While “true randomness” is a mathematical impossibility, the certification by value indefiniteness ensures the quantum random bits are incomputable in the strongest sense. This is the first QRNG setup in which a p...
متن کاملOptical Quantum Random Number Generator
A physical random number generator based on the intrinsic randomness of quantum mechanics is described. The random events are realized by the choice of single photons between the two outputs of a beamsplitter. We present a simple device, which minimizes the impact of the photon counters’ noise, dead-time and after pulses. Random numbers are employed today as well for numerical simulations as fo...
متن کاملA self-testing quantum random number generator
The generation of random numbers is a task of paramount importance in modern science. A central problem for both classical and quantum randomness generation is to estimate the entropy of the data generated by a given device. Here we present a protocol for self-testing quantum random number generation, in which the user can monitor the entropy in real-time. Based on a few general assumptions, ou...
متن کاملQuantum randomness and value indefiniteness
As computability implies value definiteness, certain sequences of quantum outcomes cannot be computable.
متن کاملQuantum Statistical Testing of a Quantum Random Number Generator
The unobservable elements in a quantum technology, e.g., the quantum state, complicate system verification against promised behavior. Using model-based system engineering, we present methods for verifying the operation of a prototypical quantum random number generator. We begin with the algorithmic design of the QRNG followed by the synthesis of its physical design requirements. We next discuss...
