Nonequivalence of two flavors of oblivious transfer at the quantum level
- Department of Physics and Advanced Research Center, Zhongshan University, Guangzhou 510275 (China)
Though all-or-nothing oblivious transfer and one-out-of-two oblivious transfer are equivalent in classical cryptography, we here show that a protocol built upon secure quantum all-or-nothing oblivious transfer cannot satisfy the rigorous definition of quantum one-out-of-two oblivious transfer due to the nature of quantum cryptography. Thus the securities of the two oblivious transfer protocols are not equivalent at the quantum level.
