Abstract
For the bipartite Bell scenario with two inputs and two outputs, a nonlinear witness of dimensionally restricted nonlocality is introduced. Popescu-Rohrlich (PR) box fraction of dimensionally restricted nonlocality is then introduced and studied using the aforementioned witness and a nonlinear measure of correlations. This PR box fraction is also nonzero for certain Bell-local correlations. It is shown that any nonsignaling correlation shared by Alice and Bob that has dimensionally restricted nonlocality contains secrecy against any third party, Eve, who is also dimensionally restricted. In this context, for the specific Bell scenario considered, it is demonstrated that the PR box fraction of dimensionally restricted nonlocality can be used as a resource for secure quantum key distribution, even if entanglement is not certified.
