contents One of the distinguishing features of quantum theory is that its measurement outcomes are usually unpredictable or, equivalently, random. Moreover, this randomness is certifiable with minimal assumptions in the so-called device-independent (DI) paradigm, where a device's behavior does not need to be presupposed but can be verified through the statistics it produces. In this work, we explore various forms of randomness that are certifiable in this setting, where two users can perform two binary-outcome measurements on their shared entangled state. In this case, even though the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) Bell-inequality violation is a pre-requisite for the generation of DI certifiable randomness, the CHSH value alone does not generally give a tight bound on the certifiable randomness. Here, we determine the certifiable randomness when zero-probability constraints are incorporated into the task of DI randomness expansion for the standard local and global randomness and the so-called "blind" randomness. Asymptotically, we observe consistent improvements in the amount of DI certifiable randomness (of all kinds) as we increase the number zero constraints for a wide range of given CHSH Bell violations. However, if we further optimize over the allowed CHSH values, then benefits of these additional constraints over the standard CHSH-based protocol are only found in the case of global and blind randomness. In contrast, in the regimes of finite data, these zero constraints only give a slight improvement in the local randomness rate when compared with all existing protocols.
