Abstract

Gao et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 208901 (2008)] have described a possible intercept-resend attack for the quantum protocol for detectable Byzantine agreement in Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 070504 (2008). Here we describe an extension of the protocol which defeats such attacks.

The 'quantum dialogue' can be eavesdropped under the intercept-and-resend attack

Zhong‐Xiao Man

In this comment we point out that the 'quantum dialogue' (Phys. Lett. A (in press); quant-ph/0406130) can be eavesdropped under the intercept-and-resend attack. We also give a revised control mode to detect this attack.

Solving the liar detection problem using the four-qubit singlet state

Adán Cabello

A method for solving the Byzantine agreement problem [M. Fitzi, N. Gisin, and U. Maurer, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 217901 (2001)] and the liar detection problem [A. Cabello, Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 100402 (2002)] is introduced. The main advantages of this protocol are that it is simpler and is based on a four-qubit singlet state already prepared in the laboratory.

Comment on "Quantum Dialogue protocol"

Changho Hong, Hyung-Jin Yang

In 2004, Ba An Nguyen [Phys. Lett. A 328, 6-10] has presented a Quantum Dialogue scheme for simultaneously communicating their messages. In this comment, we show that the quantum dialogue scheme is not secure against the intercept-and-resend attack and we propose a modified scheme which is secure against that attack.

Experimental Demonstration of a Quantum Protocol for Byzantine Agreement and Liar Detection

We introduce a new quantum protocol for solving detectable Byzantine agreement (also called detectable broadcast) between three parties, and also for solving the detectable liar detection problem. The protocol is suggested by the properties of a four-qubit entangled state, and the classical part of the protocol is simpler than that of previous proposals. In addition, we present an experimental implementation of the protocol using four-photon entanglement.

Quantum Dialogue Revisited

满忠晓, 张战军, Yong Li

An entanglement-based quantum dialogue protocol [Phys. Lett. A 328 (2004) 6] is proven to be insecure: that is, in the protocol an eavesdropper can steal the secret messages without being detected provided that he/she adopts the intercept-and-resend attack strategy. We modify the protocol, i.e. in the control mode, by introducing and randomly choosing two sets of measuring basis: the intercept-and-resend attack can be accordingly detected. Hence, within the present version two users can securely and simultaneously exchange their secret messages.
