This [https://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0102001 example protocol] allows two parties (two quantum clients) to | This [https://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0102001 example protocol] allows two parties (two quantum clients) to distinguish their quantum inputs while maintaining the privacy of their own input by comparing their fingerprints alone. The protocol does not permit the two parties to interact directly with each other, hence they send the fingerprints of their respective inputs to a trusted third party (quantum server), where the third party tests that distinguishes two unknown quantum fingerprints with high probability. The quantum fingerprints are exponentially shorter than the original inputs. | ||
