*Only limited (T) distribution of public keys should be allowed, such that <math>T < L/n</math>, where quantum public key is an 'n' qubit state and L is the length of classical bit string. | *Only limited (T) distribution of public keys should be allowed, such that <math>T < L/n</math>, where quantum public key is an 'n' qubit state and L is the length of classical bit string. | ||
* Unlike some classical information-theoretic (unconditional security) schemes which require secure anonymous broadcast channel or noisy channel, which are hard to achieve resources, the quantum scheme provides information-theoretic security by only demanding plausible quantum channels and modest interaction between parties involved. | * Unlike some classical information-theoretic (unconditional security) schemes which require secure anonymous broadcast channel or noisy channel, which are hard to achieve resources, the quantum scheme provides information-theoretic security by only demanding plausible quantum channels and modest interaction between parties involved. | ||
