Quantum steering captures the ability of one party, Alice, to control through quantum correlations the state at a distant location, Bob, with superior ability than allowed by a local hidden state model. Verifying the presence of quantum…

Alice and Bob wish to communicate without the archvillainess Eve eavesdropping on their conversation. Alice, decides to take two college courses, one in cryptography, the other in quantum mechanics. During the courses, she discovers she can…
