Cryptanalysis and improvement on two party quantum private comparison based on seven-qubit and eight-qubit states

Ji et al. [Mod. Phys. Lett. A 34, 1950229 (2019)] and Fan et al. [Mod. Phys. Lett. A 37, 2250026 (2022)] proposed two-party quantum private comparison (QPC) protocols based on 7-qubit and 8-qubit states, respectively. However, these two QPC protocols did not consider third-party (TP) attacks. Therefore, this study focuses on TP attacks and demonstrates that the property of a 7-qubit or 8-qubit entanglement state is useless in this attack situation; that is, the participant wastes resources to maintain the qubits. For the same assumption environment proposed by Ji et al. and Fan et al., this study proposes an improvement and simplification protocol that allows participants to reach the goal of private comparison by using only classical computation and the classical communication channel without any entanglement state.

Two-party quantum private comparison protocol with maximally entangled seven-qubit state

Zhaoxu Ji, Huanguo Zhang, Peiru Fan

Quantum private comparison (QPC), whose security is based on some laws of quantum mechanics (e.g. quantum noncloning theorem and Heisenbergs uncertainty principle), allows [Formula: see text] parties who do not trust each other to judge whether their secret data are the same while maintaining data privacy. In this paper, we investigate the utility of the maximally entangled seven-qubit state for QPC, and we propose a new protocol which enables two parties to compare their secret data with each other for equality without disclosing their secret data. In our protocol, single particle measurements and Bell-basis measurements are employed, both of which can be implemented with current technologies. In addition to quantum measurements, our protocol does not use other quantum technologies such as entanglement swapping and unitary operations. A semi-honest third-party who assists two parties in implementing the protocol is assumed in our protocol. Furthermore, we use the entanglement correlations of the maximally entangled seven-qubit state and collaborative computing between parties for privacy protection, and we use quantum key distribution (QKD) to ensure the security of the cooperative computing when two parties are in different locations. What is more, we show that the security towards both outsider and insider attacks can be guaranteed.

Private quantum decoupling

Francesco Buscemi

Given a bipartite quantum system, correlations between its subsystems can be understood as information that each one carries about the other. In order to give a model-independent description of secure information disposal, we propose the paradigm of private quantum decoupling, corresponding to locally reducing correlations in a given bipartite state without transferring them to the environment. In this framework, the concept of private local randomness naturally arises as a resource, and total correlations get divided into eliminable and ineliminable ones. We prove upper and lower bounds on the amount of ineliminable correlations present in an arbitrary bipartite state, and show that, in tripartite pure states, ineliminable correlations satisfy a monogamy constraint, making apparent their quantum nature. A relation with entanglement theory is provided by showing that ineliminable correlations constitute an entanglement parameter. In the limit of infinitely many copies of the initial state provided, we compute the regularized ineliminable correlations to be measured by the coherent information, which is thus equipped with a new operational interpretation. In particular, our results imply that two subsystems can be privately decoupled if their joint state is separable.
