Abstract

Cluster states can be exploited for some tasks such as topological one-way computation, quantum error correction, teleportation and dense coding. In this paper, we investigate and propose an arbitrated quantum signature scheme with cluster states. The cluster states are used for quantum key distribution and quantum signature. The proposed scheme can achieve an efficiency of 100 %. Finally, we also discuss its security against various attacks.

As we know, some papers have proved that certain QOTPs used in quantum signature may induce security problems. For example, in 2011, Gao et al. proposed a cryptanalysis of AQS [23]. They pointed out that the QOTP used in AQS cannot prevent the receiver’s forgery of the signature, because the encryption operators are based on Pauli operations which commute with each other. In addition, the signer can successfully disavow any of her signatures by simple attack. Later, Choi et al. [26] provided an improved idea to prevent the receiver’s Pauli forgery attack. In Choi et al.’s improvement, an assistant operation H is introduced to make the new encryption operator as \(P_i H\), where \(P_i \) represents the encryption operator of QOTP. Since Choi et al.’s encryption set destroys the commutativity of the encryption operators and satisfies the requirement for an optimal encryption. Therefore, here we should be careful to choose the encryption algorithm.
