This example protocol implements the functionality of Quantum Encryption with Certified Deletion using single-qubit state preparation and measurement.

Assumptions

Outline

The scheme consists of 5 circuits-

  • Key: This circuit generates the key used in later stages
  • Enc: This circuit encrypts the message using the key
  • Dec: This circuit decrypts the ciphertext using the key and generates an error flag bit
  • Del: This circuit deletes the ciphertext state and generates a deletion certificate
  • Ver: This circuit verifies the validity of the deletion certificate using the key
