Quantum election scheme based on anonymous quantum key distribution

Quantum Physics 2015-06-03 v2

Abstract

An unconditionally secure authority-certified anonymous quantum key distribution scheme using conjugate coding is presented, base on which we construct a quantum election scheme without the help of entanglement state. We show that this election scheme ensures the completeness, soundness, privacy, eligibility, unreusability, fairness and verifiability of a large-scale election in which the administrator and counter are semi-honest. This election scheme can work even if there exist loss and errors in quantum channels. In addition, any irregularity in this scheme is sensible.
