Extremal Steering Assemblages

Abstract

Non-local correlations between a fully characterised quantum system and an untrusted black box device are described by an assemblage of conditional quantum states. These assemblages form a convex set, whose extremal points are relevant in many operational contexts. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an assemblage to be extremal using linear independence conditions, and an algorithm to decompose a generic assemblage into extremal points. A Matlab implementation of this algorithm is provided in the supplementary material.
