Robust self-testing of multipartite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-state measurements in quantum networks

Self-testing is an examination for characterizing unknown quantum devices based on correlations of observed statistics in a black-box scenario. With development of large-scale quantum networks, the requirement for self-testing multipartite entangled measurements has become very demanding. We develop here a general procedure for self-testing arbitrary generalized Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-state (GHZ-state) measurements which applies to any number of parties. Moreover, it turns out that the existing result for the three-qubit GHZ-state measurement is recovered as a special case. Our results will motivate operational certification of quantum devices related to device-independent quantum information tasks for various scenarios in complicated quantum networks.
