We consider the task of sharing a secret quantum state in a quantum network in a verifiable way. We propose a protocol that achieves this task, while reducing the number of required qubits, as compared to the existing protocols. To achieve this, we combine classical encryption of the quantum secret with an existing verifiable quantum secret sharing scheme based on Calderbank-Shor-Steane quantum error correcting codes. In this way we obtain a verifiable hybrid secret sharing scheme for sharing qubits, which combines the benefits of quantum and classical schemes. Our scheme does not reveal any information to any group of less than half of the $n$ nodes participating in the protocol. Moreover, for sharing a one-qubit state each node needs a quantum memory to store $n$ single-qubit shares, and requires a workspace of at most $3n$ qubits in total to verify the quantum secret. Importantly, in our scheme an individual share is encoded in a single qubit, as opposed to previous schemes requiring $Omega(log n)$ qubits per share. Furthermore, we define a ramp verifiable hybrid scheme. We give explicit examples of various verifiable hybrid schemes based on existing quantum error correcting codes.

In the $left( {t,n} right)$ threshold quantum secret sharing scheme, it is difficult to ensure that internal participants are honest. In this paper, a verifiable $left( {t,n} right)$ threshold quantum secret sharing scheme is designed combined with classical secret sharing scheme. First of all, the distributor uses the asymmetric binary polynomials to generate the shares and sends them to each participant. Secondly, the distributor sends the initial quantum state with the secret to the first participant, and each participant performs unitary operation that using the mutually unbiased bases on the obtained $d$ dimension single bit quantum state ($d$ is a large odd prime number). In this process, distributor can randomly check the participants, and find out the internal fraudsters by unitary inverse operation gradually upward. Then the secret is reconstructed after all other participants simultaneously public transmission. Security analysis show that this scheme can resist both external and internal attacks.
In this work we present hbAVSS, the Honey Badger of Asynchronous Verifiable Secret Sharing (AVSS) protocols - an AVSS protocol that guarantees linear amortized communication overhead even in the worst case. The best prior work can achieve linear overhead only at a suboptimal resilience level (t < n/4) or by relying on optimism (falling back to quadratic overhead in case of network asynchrony or Byzantine faults). Our protocol therefore closes this gap, showing that linear communication overhead is possible without these compromises. The main idea behind our protocol is what we call the encrypt-and-disperse paradigm: by first applying ordinary public key encryption to the secret shares, we can make use of highly efficient (but not confidentiality preserving) information dispersal primitives. We prove our protocol is secure under a static computationally bounded Byzantine adversary model.
To detect frauds from some internal participants or external attackers, some verifiable threshold quantum secret sharing schemes have been proposed. In this paper, we present a new verifiable threshold structure based on a single qubit using bivariate polynomial. First, Alice chooses an asymmetric bivariate polynomial and sends a pair of values from this polynomial to each participant. Then Alice and participants implement in sequence unitary transformation on the $d$-dimensional quantum state based on unbiased bases, where those unitary transformations are contacted by this polynomial. Finally, security analysis shows that the proposed scheme can detect the fraud from external and internal attacks compared with the exiting schemes and is comparable to the recent schemes.
In this paper we study the protocol implementation and property analysis for several practical quantum secret sharing (QSS) schemes with continuous variable graph state (CVGS). For each QSS scheme, an implementation protocol is designed according to its secret and communication channel types. The estimation error is derived explicitly, which facilitates the unbiased estimation and error variance minimization. It turns out that only under infinite squeezing can the secret be perfectly reconstructed. Furthermore, we derive the condition for QSS threshold protocol on a weighted CVGS. Under certain conditions, the perfect reconstruction of the secret for two non-cooperative groups is exclusive, i.e. if one group gets the secret perfectly, the other group cannot get any information about the secret.
Secret sharing allows three or more parties to share secret information which can only be decrypted through collaboration. It complements quantum key distribution as a valuable resource for securely distributing information. Here we take advantage of hybrid spin and orbital angular momentum states to access a high dimensional encoding space, demonstrating a protocol that is easily scalable in both dimension and participants. To illustrate the versatility of our approach, we first demonstrate the protocol in two dimensions, extending the number of participants to ten, and then demonstrate the protocol in three dimensions with three participants, the highest realisation of participants and dimensions thus far. We reconstruct secrets depicted as images with a fidelity of up to 0.979. Moreover, our scheme exploits the use of conventional linear optics to emulate the quantum gates needed for transitions between basis modes on a high dimensional Hilbert space with the potential of up to 1.225 bits of encoding capacity per transmitted photon. Our work offers a practical approach for sharing information across multiple parties, a crucial element of any quantum network.
