Secret sharing of quantum information via entanglement swapping

Ying-Qiao Zhang, Jin Xing-Ri, Zhang Shou

Abstract

Based on entanglement swapping, a scheme for the secret sharing of an arbitrary two-particle entangled state is proposed. If the controllers do not co-operate with the eavesdropper, the eavesdropper's successful probability decreases with the number of the controllers increasing. In addition, only the Bell-state measurements are required to realize the secret sharing scheme.

Secret Sharing of an Arbitrary Two-atom Entanglement Based on Entanglement Swapping

Ying-Qiao Zhang

We propose a scheme on secret sharing of an arbitrary two-atom entanglement via entanglement swapping in cavity QED. Accompanying with the increasing of the number of the uncooperative controllers, the eavesdropper's successful eavesdropping probability decreases.

Quantum Secret Sharing Based on Entanglement Swapping and Local Operation

Qin Su-juan, Tailin Liu, Wen Qiao-yan

To improve the efficiency of quantum secret sharing, a protocol share the message directly among the users was proposed. The scheme made full use of entanglement swapping of Bell states and local operations. For detection of eavesdropping, the EPR pairs were divided into two parts: the checking parts and the encoding parts. After insuring the security of the quantum channel by measuring the checking particles in conjugate bases, the sender encoded her bits via the local unitary operations on the encoding parts. Investigation shows that the protocol is secure and two Bell states can be used to share two bits message.

A modified protocol of quantum state sharing based on entanglement swapping and random EPR selection

Jian Tao Dong, Jianfu Teng, Shuyan Wang

Quantum secret sharing (QSS), an important branch of quantum communication, is the generalization of classical secret sharing into quantum scenario. The secret messages are split into several parts, and each part is distributed to a separate party so that no action of a subset of all the parties without the cooperation of the entire group is able to read out the secret messages. In this paper, a quantum state sharing protocol is proposed by using entanglement swapping and random EPR selection. The EPR pairs of Bell-state measurement are selected randomly by the sender Alice, which can improve the security of the scheme and raise probability of detecting Eve to 95.8%. In addition, difference coding is used in this protocol to achieve a high efficiency. The security of the present multiparty QSS against eavesdropping has been analyzed. It is convenient in application as it require only two qubit entanglements, one measuring-basis and two-qubit joint measurements, not GHZ states, for sharing an arbitrary secret two-qubit state.

Quantum secret sharing of an arbitrary two-particle entangled state via non-maximally entangled channels

Liu Yu-Ling, Man Zhong-Xiao, Yun‐Jie Xia +1 more

In this paper, a quantum secret sharing scheme is proposed for an arbitrary two-particle entangled state among N agents. The scheme adopts the non-maximally entangled Bell states as quantum channels and the generalized Bell states as the measurement basis. By introducing an auxiliary particle and making selective measurement on it, the receiver can obtain the original quantum state with a probability less than unity.

Quantum secret sharing of arbitrary N-qubit via entangled state

WU Jun-qi

Focused on the issue that the quantum secret sharing is limited to the maximally entangled state,a scheme for quantum state sharing of an arbitrary unknown N-qubit state by using entangled state as quantum channel was proposed. The sender Alice used the Bell basis measurement and then the receiver Bob or Charlie used the single particle measurement. The participants chose the right joint unitary operation according to the results from Alice and the signal measurement,which could realize arbitrary N-qubit secret sharing. The eavesdropping analysis shows explicitly that the scheme is secure and it can resist the external eavesdropper and internal dishonest participant.

Secure and authenticated quantum secret sharing

Nadeem, Muhammad, Noor ul Ain

We propose here a quantum secret sharing scheme that works for both quantum and classical secrets. The proposed scheme is based on both entanglement swapping and teleportation together. It allows sender to encrypt his/her secret and simultaneously distribute decryption information of the encrypted secret among distant parties where decryption shares are nonlocally correlated with each other. Two-fold quantum non-local correlations, generated through entanglement swapping and then teleporting quantum states over swapped maximally entangled pairs, guarantee both authentication and secrecy of the secret from internal as well as external eavesdroppers. For classical secrets, we demonstrate a direct (2,2) quantum secret sharing scheme where neither pre-shared key nor physically secure quantum/classical channel are required. The same scheme turns out to be a (5,5) quantum secret sharing scheme for quantum secrets if sender and receivers have private quantum/classical channels among them.
