Remarks on One Arbitrated Quantum-signature Scheme

چکیده

Zeng and Keitel proposed an arbitrated quantum signature scheme In 2002. Recently, Curty and Lütkenhaus pointed out that the protocol is not operationally specified. In a reply, Zeng gave more details of the scheme. The author also claimed that the scheme is suitable for unknown messages. In this letter, we remark that the invented scenario in the original scheme is artificial. This is because its security entirely depends on the presence of a trustworthy arbitrator. Moreover, the claim that the original scheme is suitable for unknown messages is not sound.

An Arbitrated Quantum Signature Scheme Based on Chaotic Quantum Encryption Algorithm

An arbitrated quantum signature (AQS) scheme is demonstrated via the improved quantum chaotic encryption algorithm with the quantum one-time pad based on chaotic operation string. In this scheme, the signatory signs the message and the receiver verifies the signature's validity with the aid of the arbitrator who plays a crucial role when a dispute arises. Analysis shows that the signature can n...

Arbitrated Quantum Signature protocol using EPR pairs

Arbitrated signature provides that the signatory signs a message with his private key by quantum cryptography, while the signature receiver verifies the signature with the arbitrator’s assistance. In this work, security analysis was given to the arbitrated quantum signature (AQS) and results showed that the receiver Bob and the attacker can forge the signature. Then this paper gives a new quant...

Quantum messages with signatures forgeable in arbitrated quantum signature schemes

Even though a method to perfectly sign quantum messages has not been known, the arbitrated quantum signature scheme has been considered as one of good candidates. However, its forgery problem has been an obstacle to the scheme being a successful method. In this paper, we consider one situation, which is slightly different from the forgery problem, that we check whether at least one quantum mess...

An efficient and provably secure arbitrated quantum signature scheme

Two arbitrated quantum signature schemes, one with message recovery and the other with appendix, are proposed. The two proposed schemes need not prepare quantum entanglement states, do not require comparing qubits, only require von Neumann measurement, and have a significant property that both the signatory and the receiver can share and use a long-term secret key with the arbitrator by utilizi...

Arbitrated Proxy Signature Scheme Based on Quantum Cryptography

Proxy signature is a special signature which provided the signer can delegate his signing capability to others. The proxy signature provides that the original signer can delegate his signing permission to a proxy signer, and the proxy signer can replace the original signer to sign the message. In this paper, we propose a proxy signature scheme based on ideas from classical proxy signature schem...
