A Novel Quantum Blind Signature Scheme with Four-particle GHZ States

In an arbitrated quantum signature scheme, the signer signs the message and the receiver verifies the signature’s validity with the assistance of the arbitrator. We present an arbitrated quantum blind signature scheme by using four-particle entangled Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states. By using the special relationship of four-particle GHZ states, we cannot only support the security of quantum signature, but also guarantee the anonymity of the message owner. It has a wide application to E-payment system, E-government, E-business, and etc.
