We consider the problem of secure identification: user U proves to server S that he knows an agreed (possibly low-entropy) password w, while giving away as little information on w as possible, namely the adversary can exclude at most one…

Mistrustful quantum cryptographic protocols encode information in incompatible observables, so that any attempt by a dishonest party to access multiple pieces of information necessarily involves a tradeoff. A natural class of such…
