Abstract

In this paper we show that a construction of Trevisan, solving the privacy amplification problem in the classical setting, also solves the problem when the adversary may keep quantum storage, thereby giving the first such construction with logarithmic seed length. The technique we use is a combination of Trevisan's approach of constructing an extractor from a black-box pseudorandom generator, together with locally list-decodable codes and previous work done on quantum random access codes.
