Authenticable Quantum Scheme for Secret Sharing Based on Local Distinguishability

The main defects of the existing quantum secret sharing schemes are as follows: (1) The identity of the secret sender cannot be confirmed. Receivers of shared secret information may be vulnerable to Trojan attacks; (2) If a malicious attacker Eve impersonates the identity of the receiver, she can finally obtain all the information of the secret that Alice shared; (3) In the process of secret recovery, it is necessary to transmit qubits among all participants involved in secret recovery. Sometimes, the same particle needs to be operated on by all participants to achieve secret sharing, which increases the possibility of eavesdropping and also increases the probability of errors. In this work, we proposed a quantum secret sharing scheme with authentication, the receiver performs corresponding operations on qubits of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger(GHZ) state based on the key string calculated by the shared identity number and random Error Correction Code(ECC), the secret sender can calculate the corresponding measurement basis(MB) through the information she has, and then inform the measurement party. This process realizes the mutual authentication between the sender and the receiver. It can protect against identity impersonation attacks, through the ECC verification, it also can resist intercept-resend attacks.
