Quantum Private Comparison: A Review

As an important branch of quantum secure multiparty computation, quantum private comparison (QPC) has attracted more and more attention recently. In this paper, according to the quantum implementation mechanism that these protocols used, we divide these protocols into three categories: The quantum cryptography QPC, the superdense coding QPC, and the entanglement swapping QPC. And then, a more in-depth analysis on the research progress, design idea, and substantive characteristics of corresponding QPC categories is carried out, respectively. Finally, the applications of QPC and quantum secure multi-party computation issues are discussed and, in addition, three possible research mainstream directions are pointed out

A Method of Electric Power Equipment Integrated Modeling Based on Carrier

AbstractModeling of electric power equipment is very important in power system. But there are several problems by the current method, such as information is incomplete. This paper proposes a method of electric power equipment integrated modeling based on carrier. Electric power equipment model are numbered and classification, then all of them are knowledge-related through knowledgebase. In the design, user-defined of meta-data structure is supported, which can be integrated with a variety of heterogeneous systems. Finally, the model can be displayed with the dynamic three-dimensional way after rendering by texturing techniques. Experiment indicates that the proposed model contain more information and more realistic

An Improved Quantum Private Set Intersection Protocol Based on Hadamard Gates

Recently, Liu and Yin (Int. J. Theor. Phys. 60, 2074-2083 (2021)) proposed a two-party private set intersection protocol based on quantum Fourier transform. We find the participant can deduce the other party's private information, which violates the security requirement of private set computation. In order to solve this problem, an improved private set intersection protocol based on Hadamard gate is proposed. Firstly, the more feasible Hadamard gates are used to perform on the original n qubits instead of the quantum Fourier transform, which may reduce the difficulty of implementation. In addition, through the exclusive OR calculation, the participant's private information is randomly chosen and encoded on the additional n qubits, which prevents participants from obtaining the result of the difference set S-diff , and then avoids the internal leakage of private information. Finally, the correctness and security analysis are conducted to show the proposed protocol can guarantee the correctness of computation result as well as resist outside attacks and participant internal attacks.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure
