Quantum bit commitment with cheat sensitive binding and approximate sealing

This paper proposes a cheat-sensitive quantum bit commitment scheme based on single photons, in which Alice commits a bit to Bob. Here, Bob's probability of success at cheating as obtains the committed bit before the opening phase becomes close to (just like performing a guess) as the number of...

Summary:This paper proposes a cheat-sensitive quantum bit commitment scheme based on single photons, in which Alice commits a bit to Bob. Here, Bob's probability of success at cheating as obtains the committed bit before the opening phase becomes close to (just like performing a guess) as the number of single photons used is increased. And if Alice alters her committed bit after the commitment phase, her cheating will be detected with a probability that becomes close to 1 as the number of single photons used is increased. The scheme is easy to realize with present day technology.
