However, the last 20 years have seen a second quantum revolution, centered around non-locality and quantum correlations between measurement outcomes. The associated key property, entanglement, is recognized today as the signature of quantumness. This second revolution opened the possibility of studying quantum correlations without any assumption on the internal functioning of the measurement apparata, the so-called Device-Independent Approach to Quantum Physics.   This thesis explores this new approach using the powerful geometrical tool of polytopes. Emphasis is placed on the study of non-locality in the case of three or more parties, where it is shown that a whole new variety of phenomena appear compared to the bipartite case. Genuine multiparty entanglement is also studied for the first time within the device-independent framework.?Finally, these tools are used to answer a long-standing open question: could quantum non-locality be explained by influences that propagate from one party to the others faster than light, but that remain hidden so that one cannot use them to communicate faster than light? This would provide a way around Einstein's notion of action at a distance that would be compatible with relativity. However, the answer is shown to be negative, as such influences could not remain hidden. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aSpintronics 606 $aGravitation 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aQuantum Information Technology, Spintronics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31070 606 $aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070 606 $aQuantum Computing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14070 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 0$aSpintronics. 615 0$aGravitation. 615 14$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aQuantum Information Technology, Spintronics. 615 24$aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory. 615 24$aQuantum Computing. 676 $a004.1 700 $aBancal$b Jean-Daniel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0791350 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300395603321 996 $aOn the Device-Independent Approach to Quantum Physics$91768730 997 $aUNINA
