Novel quantum group signature scheme based on orthogonal product states

In this paper, we present a quantum group signature (QGS) scheme based on orthogonal product states (OPSs) that cannot be perfectly distinguished by local operations and classical communication. Our scheme has all the properties of QGS, including unforgeability, undeniability, traceability, verifiability and anonymity. These properties can guarantee the security of the scheme. More importantly, different particles of a product state that comes from a nonlocal set are transmitted separately, thus the information that is encoded in the product state will not be leaked. Security and efficiency analysis of the scheme show that our scheme is secure and efficient.
