Quantum Information Splitting of a Two-qubit Bell State Using a Five-qubit Entangled State

Abstract

A scheme for quantum information splitting of a two-qubit Bell state using a five-qubit entangled state as quantum channel is proposed. In the scheme,a genuine five-qubit entangled can be used as the quantum channel. Assume that the sender is called Alice, the receiver is called Bob and the controller id called Charlie. Alice, Bob and Charlie share a five-qubit quantum entangled state. The sender Alice sends the quantum information to the receiver Bob, anyone can not obtain the quantum information, unless they cooperate with each other. Alice first performs Bell-state measurements on her qubit paris (A, 1) (B, 5) respectively and then tells Charlie and Bob measurement results via a classical channel. It is impossible for Bob to reconstruct the original state with local operation, if Charlie allows Bob to reconstruct the original states, he needs to perform a single-qubit measurement on his qubit and tells Bob the results. According to the information from Alice and Charlie, Bob can reconstruct the original state with an appropriate unitary operation of his qubits 3, 4. We also consider the problem of security attacks. This protocol is considered to be secure.
