Cheat sensitive quantum bit commitment.

چکیده
We define cheat sensitive cryptographic protocols between mistrustful parties as protocols which guarantee that, if either cheats, the other has some nonzero probability of detecting the cheating. We describe an unconditionally secure cheat sensitive nonrelativistic bit commitment protocol which uses quantum information to implement a task which is classically impossible; we also describe a simple relativistic protocol.

Security bound of cheat sensitive quantum bit commitment
Cheat sensitive quantum bit commitment (CSQBC) loosens the security requirement of quantum bit commitment (QBC), so that the existing impossibility proofs of unconditionally secure QBC can be evaded. But here we analyze the common features in all existing CSQBC protocols, and show that in any CSQBC having these features, the receiver can always learn a non-trivial amount of information on the s...
متن کاملSerial composition of quantum coin flipping and bounds on cheat detection for bit commitment
Quantum protocols for coin flipping can be composed in series in such a way that a cheating party gains no extra advantage from using entanglement between different rounds. This composition principle applies to coin-flipping protocols with cheat sensitivity as well, and is used to derive two results: There are no quantum strong coin-flipping protocols with cheat sensitivity that is linear in th...
متن کاملUnconditionally Secure Quantum Bit Commitment Expansion
It is known that a quantum bit commitment that would be secure against all attacks allowed by quantum mechanics is impossible if a standard model of communication is used. This result was a severe step back for quantum cryptography. However, this impossibility result applies only if no bit commitment exists initially between Alice and Bob. Here we consider an initial situation in which the comm...
متن کاملUsing Quantum Oblivious Transfer to Cheat Sensitive Quantum Bit Commitment
It is well known that unconditionally secure bit commitment is impossible even in the quantum world. In this paper a weak variant of quantum bit commitment, introduced independently by Aharonov et al. [2] and Hardy and Kent [8] is investigated. In this variant, the parties require some nonzero probability of detecting a cheating, i.e. if Bob, who commits a bit b to Alice, changes his mind durin...
متن کاملIs Quantum Bit Commitment Really Possible? Typeset Using Revt E X
We show that all proposed quantum bit commitment schemes are insecure because the sender can always cheat successfully by using an EPR-type of attack and delaying her measurement until she opens her commitment.
