A {it $k$-uniform hypergraph} $mathcal{H}=(V, E)$ consists of a set $V$ of vertices and a set $E$ of hyperedges ($k$-hyperedges), which is a family of $k$-subsets of $V$. A {it forbidden $k$-homogeneous (or forbidden $k$-hypergraph)} access structure $mathcal{A}$ is represented by a $k$-uniform hypergraph $mathcal{H}=(V, E)$ and has the following property: a set of vertices (participants) can reconstruct the secret value from their shares in the secret sharing scheme if they are connected by a $k$-hyperedge or their size is at least $k+1$. A forbidden $k$-homogeneous access structure has been studied by many authors under the terminology of $k$-uniform access structures. In this paper, we provide efficient constructions on the total share size of linear secret sharing schemes for sparse and dense $k$-uniform access structures for a constant $k$ using the hypergraph decomposition technique and the monotone span programs.

In this paper we define a kind of decomposition for a quantum access structure. We propose a conception of minimal maximal quantum access structure and obtain a sufficient and necessary condition for minimal maximal quantum access structure, which shows the relationship between the number of minimal authorized sets and that of the players. Moreover, we investigate the construction of efficient quantum secret schemes by using these techniques, a decomposition and minimal maximal quantum access structure. A major advantage of these techniques is that it allows us to construct a method to realize a general quantum access structure. For these quantum access structures, we present two quantum secret schemes via the idea of concatenation or a decomposition of a quantum access structure. As a consequence, the application of these techniques allow us to save more quantum shares and reduce more cost than the existing scheme.

Secret sharing was proposed primarily in 1979 to solve the problem of key distribution. In recent decades, researchers have proposed many improvement schemes. Among all these schemes, the verifiable multi-secret sharing (VMSS) schemes are studied sufficiently, which share multiple secrets simultaneously and perceive malicious dealer as well as participants. By pointing out that the schemes presented by Dehkordi and Mashhadi in 2008 cannot detect some vicious behaviors of the dealer, we propose two new VMSS schemes by adding validity check in the verification phase to overcome this drawback. Our new schemes are based on XTR public key system, and can realize $GF(p^{6})$ security by computations in $GF(p^{2})$ without explicit constructions of $GF(p^{6})$, where $p$ is a prime. Compared with the VMSS schemes using RSA and linear feedback shift register (LFSR) public key cryptosystems, our schemes can achieve the same security level with shorter parameters by using trace function. Whats more, our schemes are much simpler to operate than those schemes based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). In addition, our schemes are dynamic and threshold changeable, which means that it is efficient to implement our schemes according to the actual situation when participants, secrets or the threshold needs to be changed.

A secret can be an encrypted message or a private key to decrypt the ciphertext. One of the main issues in cryptography is keeping this secret safe. Entrusting secret to one person or saving it in a computer can conclude betrayal of the person or destruction of that device. For solving this issue, secret sharing can be used between some individuals which a coalition of a specific number of them can only get access to the secret. In practical issues, some of the members have more power and by a coalition of fewer of them, they should know about the secret. In a bank, for example, president and deputy can have a union with two members by each other. In this paper, by using Polar codes secret sharing has been studied and a secret sharing scheme based on Polar codes has been introduced. Information needed for any member would be sent by the channel which Polar codes are constructed by it.

There are several methods for constructing secret sharing schemes, one of which is based on coding theory. Theoretically, every linear code can be used to construct secret sharing schemes. However, in general, determining the access structures of the schemes based on linear codes is very hard. This paper proposed the concept of minimal linear code, which makes the determination of the access structures of the schemes based on the duals of minimal linear codes easier. It is proved that the shortening codes of minimal linear codes are also minimal ones. Then the conditions whether several types of irreducible cyclic codes are minimal linear codes are presented. Furthermore, the access structures of secret sharing schemes based on the duals of minimal linear codes are studied, and these access structures in specific examples are obtained through programming.

We introduce a scheme for the membership verification, a scheme for a secret ballot, a scheme for the unanimity rule which can hide the number of voter using some partition number identities.
