Abstract: We show that Trevisan's extractor and its variants cite{T99,RRV99} are secure against bounded quantum storage adversaries. One instantiation gives the first such extractor to achieve an output length Theta(Kb), where K is the source's entropy and b the adversary's storage, together with a poly-logarithmic seed length. Another instantiation achieves a logarithmic key length, with a slightly smaller output length Theta((Kb)/Kgamma) for any gamma>0. In contrast, the previous best construction cite{TS09} could only extract (K/b)1/15 bits. Some of our constructions have the additional advantage that every bit of the output is a function of only a polylogarithmic number of bits from the source, which is crucial for some cryptographic applications. Our argument is based on bounds for a generalization of quantum random access codes, which we call emph{quantum functional access codes}. This is crucial as it lets us avoid the local list-decoding algorithm central to the approach in cite{TS09}, which was the source of the multiplicative overhead.
