Quantum state sharing of an arbitrary m-particle state using Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen pairs and application in quantum voting

In this paper, we propose a scheme where Alice shares an arbitrary m-particle unknown state with her agents, Bob and Charlie. Alice starts by distributing 2m Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen pairs with her agents and performs m joint three-particle Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state measurements on her particles. Bob, who acts as the controller, performs a product measurement [Formula: see text] on his m qubit states while Charlie retrieves the original state by performing unitary operations on his m particles. Subsequently, we demonstrate our proposed scheme’s feasibility by applying it in electronic voting by sharing an arbitrary single-particle state.
