Blind quantum computation with hybrid model

Abstract

Blind quantum computation (BQC) allows a client who has a few quantum abilities to interact and delegate her quantum computation to a server that has strong quantum computabilities, while the server learns nothing about client’s quantum inputs, algorithms, and outputs. In this article, a new BQC protocol with hybrid model is proposed, using the combination of rotation operators to construct arbitrary quantum gate. Our BQC protocol is divided into two phases. In the first phase, a new kind of function operation is designed and defined, that is, the client sends the classical message [Formula: see text] to the server and then the sever performs a corresponding function operation [Formula: see text], which has been defined. In the second phase, a rotation operator or identity operator is implemented by quantum gate teleportation where the server can’t know which quantum gate has been teleported. Combining these two phases, the server has no idea about client’s quantum algorithms. When the server performs the corresponding operation honestly, the client only needs to perform [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] operators.

Gate Teleportation-based Universal Blind Quantum Computation

Xiaoqian Zhang

Blind quantum computation (BQC) allows that a client who has limited quantum abilities can delegate quantum computation to a server who has advanced quantum technologies but learns nothing about the client's private information. However, it still remains a challenge to directly encrypt quantum algorithms in circuits model. To solve the problem, we propose GTUBQC, the first gate teleportation-based universal BQC protocol. In this paper, we consider a scenario where a trusted center is responsible for preparing initial states, a client with the ability to perform X, Z does not require any quantum memory, and two servers conducting UBQC (universal BQC) and Bell measurements. GTUBQC can hide the universal quantum gates by encrypting the rotation angles, because arbitrary unitary operation can be decomposed into a combination of arbitrary rotation operators. We prove the blindness and correctness of GTUBQC, and apply our approach to other types of computational tasks, such as quantum Fourier transform.

Blind quantum computation with completely classical client and a trusted center

Min Liang

Blind quantum computation (BQC) enables a client without enough quantum power to delegate his quantum computation to a quantum server, while keeping the input data, the algorithm and the result unknown to the server. In the studies of practical BQC protocol, an important problem is how to reduce the quantum requirement of the client. Multi-server BQC protocols have been proposed to solve this problem. We review the double-server and triple-server protocols [Li et al., Phys. Rev. A 89, 040302(R) (2014)], and propose a modified double-server BQC protocol with a trusted center. In our protocol, the servers are allowed to communicate mutually, and the client is completely classical. Furthermore, our double-server protocol can be modified into a single-server protocol by simply combining the two servers. Compared with the triple-server protocol, our double-server and single-server protocols are more simple and the client is not required to have the ability to access quantum channel. So our protocols are more practical when quantum computer is applied in the `cloud' model.

Universal single-server blind quantum computation for classical clients

Hai-Ru Xu, Bang-Hai Wang

Abstract Blind quantum computation (BQC) allows a client without enough quantum technologies to delegate her quantum computation to a remote quantum server, while keeping her input, output and algorithm secure. In this paper, we propose a universal single-server and almost-classical-client BQC protocol. In this protocol, the client interfaces with only one server and the only ability of the client required is to get particles from the trusted center and forward them to the server. We present an analysis of this protocol and modify it to a universal single-server and fully-classical-client BQC protocol by improving the ability of the trusted center. Based on our protocols and recent works, a new ‘Cloud + Certificate Authority (CA)’ style is proposed for the BQC.

Ancilla-driven blind quantum computation for clients with different quantum capabilities

Qunfeng Dai, Junyu Quan, Xiaoping Lou +1 more

Abstract Blind quantum computation (BQC) allows a client with limited quantum power to delegate his quantum computational task to a powerful server and still keep his input, output, and algorithm private. There are mainly two kinds of models about BQC, namely circuit-based and measurement-based models. In addition, a hybrid model called ancilla-driven universal blind quantum computation (ADBQC) was proposed by combining the properties of both circuit-based and measurement-based models, where all unitary operations on the register qubits can be realized with the aid of single ancilla coupled to the register qubits. However, in the ADBQC model, the quantum capability of the client is strictly limited to preparing single qubits. If a client can only perform single-qubit measurements or a few simple quantum gates, he will not be able to perform ADBQC. This paper solves the problem and extends the existing model by proposing two types of ADBQC protocols for clients with different quantum capabilities, such as performing single-qubit measurements or single-qubit gates. Furthermore, in the two proposed ADBQC protocols, clients can detect whether servers are honest or not with a high probability by using corresponding verifiable techniques.

Gate-teleportation-based blind quantum computation

Mear M. R. Koochakie

Blind quantum computation (BQC) is a model in which a computation is performed on a server by a client such that the server is kept blind about the input, the algorithm, and the output of the computation. Here we layout a general framework for BQC which, unlike the previous BQC models, does not constructed on specific computational model. A main ingredient of our construction is gate teleportation. We demonstrate that our framework can be straightforwardly implemented on circuit-based models as well as measurement-based models of quantum computation. We illustrate our construction by showing that universal BQC is possible on correlation-space measurement-based quantum computation models.

Blind Quantum Computation without Trusted Center

Shih-Min Hung, Tzonelih Hwang

Blind quantum computation (BQC) protocol allows a client having partially quantum ability to del- egate his quantum computation to a remote quantum server without leaking any information about the input, the output and the intended computation. Recently, many BQC protocols have been proposed with the intention to make the ability of client more classical. In this paper, we propose two BQC protocols, in which the client does not have to generate photons, but only has to perform either rotation or reorder on the received photons.
