Abstract

In the field of single-server blind quantum computation (BQC), a major focus is to make the client as classical as possible. To achieve this goal, we propose two single-server BQC protocols to achieve verifiable universal quantum computation. In these two protocols, the client only needs to perform either the gate T (in the first protocol) or the gates H and X (in the second protocol). With assistance from a single server, the client can utilize his quantum capabilities to generate some single-qubit states while keeping the actual state of these qubits confidential from others. By using these single-qubit states, the verifiable universal quantum computation can be achieved.

Verifiable Blind Quantum Computation With Identity Authentication for Multi-Type Clients

Junyu Quan, Qin Li, Lvzhou Li

Blind quantum computation (BQC) provides a solution for clients with limited quantum capabilities to delegate their quantum computational tasks to remote quantum servers while keeping their own data private. In this paper, we first propose three multi-party verifiable blind quantum computation (MPVBQC) protocols, each of which can handle one type of clients with certain simple quantum capabilities such as making single-qubit measurements, preparing single qubits, or performing a few single-qubit gates. Then a flexible and hybrid MPVBQC framework for multi-type clients in quantum networks is given by combining the three proposed MPVBQC protocols. It simultaneously allows at least three types of clients in quantum networks to achieve BQC depending on their own quantum devices. Furthermore, all the proposed protocols can achieve identity authentication, resist both insider and outsider attacks, and be verifiable which means that the clients can verify the correctness of their computational results.

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.

Verifiable single client-server Blind Quantum Computation based on measurement

Xiaoqian Zhang, Jian Weng, Weiqi Luo +1 more

The characteristics of BQC is that it enables a client with less quantum abilities to delegate her quantum computation to a server with strong quantum computablities while keeping the client's privacy. In this article, we study single client-server BQC based on measurement which is verifiable. In detail, the verifiability is that the client Alice can obtain the correct measurement results if the server Bob is honest, while Bob does not get nothing of Alice's secret information if he is malicious. We construct a latticed state, composed of six-qubit cluster states and eight-qubit entangled states, to realize Alice's quantum computing. In this proposed protocol, the cilent Alice prepares and sends initial single-qubit states to Bob, where the initial states include useful qubits and trap qubits. And then Bob performs controlled-Z gate to produce the entanglement and returns them to Alice. Alice will send trap qubits and useful qubits to Bob randomly and Bob returns all measurement results to her. Alice makes a comparison for trap qubits between true results and Bob's results to check the honesty of Bob. In a word, the trap qubtis have two purposes: 1) confusing Bob to keep the blindness; 2)verifying the honesty of Bob and correctness of Bob's quantum computing. There has an important feature that Alice does not need to encrypt the computing angles by $r\pi$ (r$\in\{0,1\}$), meanwhile the blindness and correctness can also be ensured. That is, Alice's computing results don't need to flipped since Bob is not impossible know anything about the quantum computation. Our work gives a better understanding for verifiable BQC based on measurement.

Verifiable blind quantum computation for two types of clients via iterated gate teleportation

Yuxun Wang, Qunfeng Dai, Qin Li

Blind quantum computation (BQC) provides a secure framework for clients to delegate quantum computations to servers without revealing their private information. Among BQC protocols, those built on iterated gate teleportation (IGTBQC) have demonstrated promising potential in overcoming the constraints imposed by the no-programming theorem and significantly reducing communication overhead. However, existing IGTBQC protocols lack mechanisms for clients to verify the correctness of computation results and deal with only one type of clients capable of preparing qubits. To address these limitations, we first extend the current IGTBQC protocol to be a verifiable one and then propose another verifiable IGTBQC protocol tailored for a different type of clients with the capability of measuring single-qubit states. Furthermore, both protocols are shown to satisfy blindness and verification simultaneously in a relatively formal way. Our results not only broaden the applicability to a wider range of clients but also enhance the practicality of delegated quantum computation.

Verifiable blind quantum computation with identity authentication for different types of clients

Junyu Quan, Qin Li, Lvzhou Li

Quantum computing has considerable advantages in solving some problems over its classical counterpart. Currently various physical systems are developed to construct quantum computers but it is still challenging and the first use of quantum computers may adopt the cloud style. Blind quantum computing (BQC) provides a solution for clients with limited quantum capabilities to delegate their quantum computation to remote quantum servers while keeping input, output, and even algorithm private. In this paper, we propose three multi-party verifiable blind quantum computing (VBQC) protocols with identity authentication to handle clients with varying quantum capabilities in quantum networks, such as those who can just make measurements, prepare single qubits, or perform a few single-qubit gates. They are client-friendly and flexible since the clients can achieve BQC depending on their own quantum devices and resist both insider outsider attacks in quantum networks. Furthermore, all the three proposed protocols are verifiable, namely that the clients can verify the correctness of their calculations.

Verifiable blind quantum computation over collective-noise

Yuan-Mao Luo, Zhen Yang, Guang-Yang Wu +2 more

Abstract Blind quantum computation(BQC) is a new type of secure quantum computation. In the natural environment, the qubits used in BQC will inevitably be affected by the noise, and the client cannot guarantee the correctness of computational results when the server is dishonest. This paper proposes a verifiable BQC over collective-noise based on quantum error correction to solve these two problems. Furthermore, the proposed protocol needs to expand Alice’s quantum capabilities. The client makes single-qubit measurements on the qubits, encoded and transmitted by the server. As a result, they protect qubits used to compute and utilize single-qubits to verify.
