Abstract
En 中文
A verifiable quantum secret sharing protocol using quantum walks on a lattice is proposed in this paper. The protocol utilizes generalized Bell states as the initial quantum resource, integrating the quantum walk evolution operator U with the global shift operator $G_{ab}$ to facilitate joint encrypted transmission among multiple participants. A bidirectional identity authentication mechanism based on hash functions is introduced to ensure the legitimacy of all communication parties, which effectively resists impersonation attacks. Random decoy particles are randomly prepared in either the $Z_{d}$ or $X_{d}$ basis and inserted into the transmission sequence, enabling real-time eavesdropping detection on the quantum channel. In the secret reconstruction phase, a public verification mechanism is designed to allow participants to verify the correctness of the recovered secret and identify internal dishonest behaviors. Security analysis demonstrates that the protocol achieves information-theoretic security, resisting typical external attacks such as intercept-resend, measure-resend, and entangle-measure attacks, as well as collusion attacks from dishonest internal participants. Compared with existing quantum-walk-based secret sharing schemes, the proposed protocol maintains high qubit efficiency while supporting both identity authentication and public verifiability, thus possessing stronger practicality and security.
