Experimental Quantum Multiparty Communication Protocols

Quantum Physics 2016-08-02 v1

Abstract

Quantum information science breaks limitations of conventional information transfer, cryptography and computation by using quantum superpositions or entanglement as resources for information processing. Here, we report on the experimental realization of three-party quantum communication protocols using single three-level quantum system (qutrit) communication: secret sharing, detectable Byzantine agreement, and communication complexity reduction for a three-valued function. We have implemented these three schemes using the same optical fiber interferometric setup. Our realization is easily scalable without sacrificing detection efficiency or generating extremely complex many-particle entangled states.
