Abstract
In a recent work, Markham and Sanders proposed a framework to study quantum secret-sharing (QSS) schemes using graph states. This framework unified three classes of QSS protocols, namely, sharing classical secrets over private and public channels, and sharing quantum secrets. However, previous work on graph-state secret sharing mostly focused on threshold schemes. In this paper, we focus on general access structures. We show how to realize a large class of arbitrary access structures using the graph-state formalism. We show an equivalence between $[[n,1]]$ binary quantum codes and graph-state secret-sharing schemes sharing one bit. We also establish a similar (but restricted) equivalence between a class of $[[n,1]]$ Calderbank-Shor-Steane codes and graph-state QSS schemes sharing one qubit. With these results we are able to construct a large class of graph-state quantum secret-sharing schemes with arbitrary access structures.
