Abstract

Abstract Blind quantum computation enables a client with limited quantum capabilities to delegate a powerful quantum computer for performing confidential quantum computation. This paper identifies a security loophole in the initial universal half-blind quantum computation protocol and resolves it using operation teleportation. Simultaneously, to minimize quantum resource consumption for both the client and the server, the proposed protocol relies on the universal gate set H, T, and CX, and only necessitates the client’s ability to prepare qubits in the eigenstates of Pauli gates X and Y or measure qubits based on these gates. Finally, a sample example is provided to illustrate the proposed protocol effectively.

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 a client performing different single-qubit gates

Guang-Yang Wu, Zhen 振 Yang 杨, Yu-Zhan Yan +3 more

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.

A Scheme for universal blind quantum computation

Mear M. R. Koochakie

Blind quantum computation (BQC) is a recent proposition in which a computation is performed on a server by a client in a manner that the server is kept blind about the input, the algorithm and the output of the computation. This model possesses a natural security, which makes it suitable for applications where privacy matters. In this paper we propose a framework for BQC which can be implemented by circuit models as well as measurement-based models of quantum computation. It is based on gate teleportation, a process in which by storing one-qubit gates in entangled pairs one can apply it later via teleportation. We elaborate on examples of such universal BQC (UBQC) protocols. Specially, we elaborate on UBQC for correlation-space measurement-based quantum computation.

On the Security of Two Blind Quantum Computations

Shih-Min Hung, Tzonelih Hwang

Blind quantum computation (BQC) protocol allows a client having partial quantum ability to delegate his quantum computation to a remote quantum server without leaking any information about the input, the output and the intended computation to the server. Several BQC protocols have been proposed, e.g., Li et al. in [1] proposed a triple-server BQC protocol and Xu et al. in [2] proposed a single-server BQC protocol. Though both papers claimed that their protocols can satisfy the requirement of privacy, this paper points out a security loophole in their protocols. With that the server can reveal the private information of the client.

Blind quantum computation with hybrid model

Xiaodan Zeng, Xiaoqing Tan, Qingshan Xu +1 more

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.

Quantum Blind Computation with Teleportation-based Computation

Nai-Hui Chia, Chia-Hung Chien, Wei‐Ho Chung +1 more

We propose a protocol based on quantum teleportation and measurement-based computation allowing clients to conduct blind computation on the server with less information of input, output and computation revealed. Our protocol also requires less quantum resources on clients. There are two phases in our protocol, i.e., preparation and computation. Since we apply the small operation unit of an entanglement pair instead of cluster states or quantum gates, the server is able to serve more clients with limited resources, and provide flexible computation power and thus distribute his tasks with flexibility. The proposed protocol provides a new way to achieve blind computation with few quantum resources on clients and conceal clients' information from potential eavesdroppers. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocol is the first to consider the reduction of the additional load on the server, and provides better scalability, flexibility and reliability for quantum blind computation.
