Error-free interconversion of nonlocal boxes

Quantum Physics 2022-08-17 v2

Abstract

Understanding the structure of nonlocal correlations is important in many fields ranging from fundamental questions of physics to device-independent cryptography. We present a protocol that can convert extremal two-party--two-input nonlocal no-signaling boxes of any type into any other extremal two-party--two-input nonlocal no-signaling box perfectly. Our results are exact, and even though the number of required boxes cannot be determined in advance, their expected number is finite. Our protocol is adaptive and demonstrates for the first time the usefulness of using no-signaling boxes in different causal orders by the parties.
