Large deviation analysis for quantum security via smoothing of Renyi entropy of order 2

Abstract

It is known that the security evaluation can be done by smoothing of R\'{e}nyi entropy of order 2 in the classical and quantum settings when we apply universal2_2 hash functions. Using the smoothing of Renyi entropy of order 2, we derive security bounds for L1L_1 distinguishability and modified mutual information criterion under the classical and quantum setting, and have derived these exponential decreasing rates. These results are extended to the case when we apply ε\varepsilon-almost dual universal2_2 hash functions. Further, we apply this analysis to the secret key generation with error correction.
