Dear All,
This weeks research day on Tuesday will be at the Computer Science
Building. Note that we have moved to a new building, the CAB!
Furthermore, there is NO locked door anymore :-) In case you want to
visit our new offices (we also have several free workplaces) we are
located on the F-floor:
Stefan: CAB F 52
Matthias: CAB F 52.1
Esther: CAB F 51
Manuel + Viktor: CAB F 51.1
Severin + Dejan: CAB F 39
Speaker: Esther Haenggi
Title: Privacy Amplification of Non-Signaling Boxes
Time: 5 pm
Place: CAB H 53
Abstract:
I will talk about our recent result on privacy amplification of
non-signaling secrecy. The talk will have two parts: the first part is
an introduction to how 'boxes' are related to quantum key distribution.
This part should be extremely basic and, therefore, boring for people
actually working on boxes (but on the other hand understandable for
people NOT working on them). The second part will be about the actual
result that non-signaling secrecy can be enhanced by taking the XOR of
partially secure bits and how this leads to a key-distribution scheme.
This part is more technical. I will clearly mark the transition between
the two parts and you are, of course, welcome to attend either, both or
neither of the parts.
Cheers,
Dejan
