Abstract

This paper presents a novel privacy computation protocol design leveraging the inherent properties of quantum error correction (QEC) codes. The core idea is to encode quantum computation data into QEC codes and perform error correction during the computation process, thereby safeguarding data privacy. This approach significantly enhances the security of privacy protection compared to traditional methods. The protocol utilizes a specific QEC code structure to minimize information leakage while performing the desired computation. This design addresses a critical challenge in privacy-preserving quantum computing – the vulnerability of quantum data to eavesdropping – offering a potential pathway towards secure multi-party quantum computation. The effectiveness of the protocol is demonstrated through a theoretical analysis, outlining its key components and security guarantees.

Quantum-Enhanced Differential Privacy for Graph Data

Jincheng Zhang

This paper investigates the application of quantum error correction (QEC) to enhance differential privacy (DP) for graph data. Traditional DP mechanisms, when applied to graph datasets, often result in substantial utility loss due to the inherent structure and complexity of graph representations. We propose a novel approach that utilizes QEC to mitigate this issue by providing a stronger level of privacy protection during computations performed on the graph. Our framework aims to balance privacy guarantees with data utility, leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics to safeguard sensitive information while enabling meaningful analysis. The core idea is that by detecting and correcting errors introduced during computations, we can significantly reduce the risk of information leakage, thus improving the overall privacy-utility trade-off. We present a theoretical analysis of the proposed method and outline a potential implementation strategy, highlighting the key challenges and future research directions. The primary contribution lies in exploring the feasibility and potential benefits of QEC within the context of DP for graph data, addressing a critical gap in existing privacy-preserving techniques.
