The extraction of randomness from weakly random seeds is a problem of central importance with multiple applications. In the device-independent setting, this problem of quantum randomness amplification has been mainly restricted to specific weak sources of Santha-Vazirani type, while extraction from the general min-entropy sources has required a large number of separated devices which is impractical. In this paper, we present a device-independent protocol for amplification of a single min-entropy source (consisting of two blocks of sufficiently high min-entropy) using a device consisting of two spatially separated components and show a proof of its security against general quantum adversaries.

  1. An efficient construction of Raz's two-source randomness extractor with improved parameters

    cs.CR 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A quasi-linear-time version of Raz's two-source extractor with reduced entropy requirements, quantum-proof variants, and an open-source implementation.

  2. No Bound Randomness in Quantum Nonlocality

    quant-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Any nonlocal quantum behavior certifies some device-independent randomness when all input pairs are used for generation; the input-averaged guessing probability is a faithful, monotonic nonlocality measure.
