A Blind Quantum Signature Scheme with χ-type Entangled States

A blind quantum signature scheme with χ-type entangled states is proposed, which can be applied to E-voting system. In this scheme, the particles in χ-type state sequence are used for quantum key distribution first, and then for quantum signature. Our scheme is characterized by its blindness, impossibility of forgery, impossibility of disavowal. In addition, our scheme can perform an audit program with respect to the validity of the verification process in the light of actual requirements. The security of the scheme is also analyzed.     

基于Bell态的三方量子密钥协商

提出了基于两粒子纠缠态的一个三方量子密钥协商协议. 方案中的三个参与者是完全对等的, 且对建立的共享密钥具有相同的贡献. 除此之外, 三方中的任何一方或两方都不能事先单独决定共享密钥. 安全分析表明本协议既能抵抗外部窃听者的攻击, 又能抵抗内部参与者攻击. 关键词： 量子密码学 量子密钥协商 Bell态     

Multiparty Quantum Key Agreement Based on Three-Photon Entanglement with Unidirectional Qubit Transmission

A multiparty quantum key agreement protocol based on three-photon entangled states is proposed. In this scheme, the quantum channel between all parties is that of a closed loop, in which the qubit transmission is one-way. Each party can obtain the sum of the other parties’ secret key values through the coding rules instead of extracting their private keys. The shared secret key cannot be determined by any subset of all the participants except the universal set and each party makes an equal contribution to the final key. Moreover, the security analysis shows our protocol can resist both outside attacks and inside attacks.

     

Three-Party Quantum Key Agreement with Two-Photon Entanglement

A three-party quantum key agreement protocol with two-qubit entangled states is proposed. In this paper, the three parties are entirely peer entities and each party has a equal contribution to the establishment of the shared secret key. Moreover, any subset of the three participants except the universal set can not determine the shared key alone. Finally, the security analysis shows that the present protocol can resist against both the outsider attack and the insider attack.
