Unconditionally Secure Quantum Bit Commitment is Simply Possible
Mayers, Lo and Chau proved unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment is impossible. It is shown that their proof is valid only for a particular model of quantum bit commitment encoding, in general it does not hold good. A different model of unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment both entanglement and disentanglement-based is presented. Even cheating can be legally proved with some le...
متن کاملCharacterizing Quantum Theory in terms of Information-Theoretic Constraints
We show that three fundamental information-theoretic constraints—the impossibility of superluminal information transfer between two physical systems by performing measurements on one of them, the impossibility of broadcasting the information contained in an unknown physical state, and the impossibility of unconditionally secure bit commitment—suffice to entail that the observables and state spa...
متن کاملUnconditionally Secure Quantum Bit Commitment Really Is Impossible
Unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment has been shown to be impossible by Mayers [22] and Lo and Chau [18, 19], but the claim is repeatedly challenged. The bit commitment theorem is reviewed here and the central conceptual point, that an ”Einstein-PodolskyRosen’ attack or cheating strategy can always be applied, is clarified. The question of whether following such a cheating strategy can...
متن کاملAre entanglement and quantum computer necessary for quantum bit commitment ?
. It was claimed that unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment is impossible due to quantum-computer-assisted-entanglement-attack Recently we have shown that quantum computer-assisted-entanglement-attack can be totally foiled by entanglement and quantum computer. Here we present an alternative un-entanglement based quantum bit commitment scheme. Although the scheme is unconditionally secur...
متن کاملUnconditionally Secure Quantum Bit Commitment
Lo and Chau, and independently Mayers, have shown that all quantum bit commitment schemes proposed to date are insecure: one or both participants can cheat if they have a quantum computer. They claim also to have demonstrated that unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment is impossible. However, their no-go arguments rely on models of quantum cryptographic protocols which are insufficiently...
