Distributed quantum election scheme    [PDF]

Rui-Rui Zhou, Li Yang

In this paper we present a new kind of unconditionally secure distributed election scheme, in which the voting administrator is made up by two parties that will not cooperate up to cheat during the election. This scheme ensures that while the scheme is completed, nobody can threaten the privacy of the election scheme even the administrator and the counter collaborate up to do so for the first time, this has certain practical significance. The security and implementability of this scheme depend on the security and implementability of the quantum key distribution, and the practicability of this scheme reflects in that the election can also implements when the quantum channels exist loss and errors.
