Better short-seed extractors against quantum knowledge
msra(2010)
摘要
We construct a strong extractor against quantum storage that works for every
min-entropy $k$, has logarithmic seed length, and outputs $\Omega(k)$ bits,
provided that the quantum adversary has at most $\beta k$ qubits of memory, for
any $\beta < \half$. Previous constructions required poly-logarithmic seed
length to output such a fraction of the entropy and, in addition, required
super-logarithmic seed length for small values of $k$. The construction works
by first condensing the source (with minimal entropy-loss) and then applying an
extractor that works well against quantum adversaries, when the source is close
to uniform.
We also obtain an improved construction of a strong extractor against quantum
knowledge, in the high guessing entropy regime. Specifically, we construct an
extractor that uses a logarithmic seed length and extracts $\Omega(n)$ bits
from any source over $\B^n$, provided that the guessing entropy of the source
conditioned on the quantum adversary's state is at least $(1-\beta) n$, for any
$\beta < \half$. Previous constructions required poly-logarithmic seed length
to output $\Omega(n)$ bits from such sources.
