Quantum dialogue by nonselective measurements

Ba An Nguyen

Abstract

Unlike classical measurements, quantum measurements may be useful even without reading the outcome. Such so called nonselective measurements are exploited in this paper to design a quantum dialogue protocol that allows exchanging secret data without prior key distributions. The relevant data to be exchanged are in terms of the high-dimensional mutually unbiased bases of quantum measurements. Appropriate modes of bidirectional controlling are devised to ensure the protocol security which is asymptotic
