We provide a quantum gambling protocol using three (symmetric) nonorthogonal states. The bias of the proposed protocol is less than that of previous ones, making it more practical. We show that the proposed scheme is secure against…

Quantum key distribution(QKD) is an important area in quantum information theory. Nowadays, there are many protocols such as BB84 protocol, Lo-Chau's protocol and GR10 protocol. They usually require legitimated parties have the ability to…
Quantum entanglement between particles is expected to allow one to perform tasks that would otherwise be impossible. In quantum sensing and metrology, entanglement is often claimed to enable a precision that cannot be attained with the same…
Entanglement is a key property of quantum states that acts as a resource for a wide range of tasks in quantum computing. Entanglement detection is a key conceptual and practical challenge. Without adaptive or joint measurements,…
Quantum computing promises to provide exponential speed-ups to certain classes of problems. In many such algorithms, a classical vector $\mathbf{b}$ is encoded in the amplitudes of a quantum state $\left |b \right >$. However, efficiently…
