Abstract

Unsharp measurements play an increasingly important role in quantum information theory. In this paper, we study a three-party prepare-transform-measure experiment with unsharp measurements based on 31 3 \rightarrow 1 sequential random access codes (RACs). We derive optimal trade-off between the two correlation witnesses in 31 3 \rightarrow 1 sequential quantum random access codes (QRACs), and use the result to complete the self-testing of quantum preparations, instruments and measurements for three sequential parties. We also give the upper and lower bounds of the sharpness parameter to complete the robustness analysis of the self-testing scheme. In addition, we find that classical correlation witness violation based on 313 \rightarrow 1 sequential RACs cannot be obtained by both correlation witnesses simultaneously. This means that if the second party uses strong unsharp measurements to overcome the classical upper bound, the third party cannot do so even with sharp measurements. Finally, we give the analysis and comparison of the random number generation efficiency under different sharpness parameters based on the determinant value, 212 \rightarrow 1 and 313 \rightarrow 1 QRACs separately. This letter sheds new light on generating random numbers among multi-party in semi-device independent framework.
