Composable secure multi-client delegated quantum computation

Monireh Houshmand, Mahboobeh Houshmand, Si-Hui Tan +1 more

The engineering challenges involved in building large scale quantum computers, and the associated infrastructure requirements, mean that when such devices become available it is likely that this will be in limited numbers and in limited geographic locations. It is likely that many users will need to rely on remote access to delegate their computation to the available hardware. In such a scenario, the privacy and reliability of the delegated computations are important concerns. On the other hand, the distributed nature of modern computations has led to a widespread class of applications in which a group of parties attempt to perform a joint task over their inputs, e.g., in cloud computing. In this paper, we study the multi-client delegated quantum computation problem where we consider the global computation be made up of local computations that are individually decided by the clients. Each client part is kept secret from the server and the other clients. We construct a composable secure multi-client delegated quantum computation scheme from any composable secure single-client delegated quantum computation protocol and quantum authentication codes.

Composably Secure Delegated Quantum Computation with Weak Coherent Pulses

Maxime Garnier, Dominik Leichtle, Luka Music +1 more

Secure Delegated Quantum Computation (SDQC) protocols allow a client to delegate a quantum computation to a powerful remote server while ensuring the privacy and the integrity of its computation. Recent resource-efficient and noise-robust protocols led to experimental proofs of concept. Yet, their physical requirements are still too stringent to be added directly to the roadmap of quantum hardware vendors. To address part of this issue, this paper shows how to alleviate the necessity for the client to have a single-photon source. We describe an SDQC protocol, similar in spirit to the decoy state method used in QKD, which requires only a source of weak coherent pulses. It is noise-robust, composable, and has negligible correctness and security errors. The simplest instantiation of our protocol with only 2 intensities shows improved scaling at low transmittance and adds verifiability to previous proposals.
