Improving Classical Authentication over a Quantum Channel

Improving Classical Authentication over a Quantum Channel

We propose a quantum protocol to authenticate classical messages that can be used to replace Wegman–Carter’s classical authentication scheme in quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols. We show that the proposed scheme achieves greater conditional entropy of the seed for...
