This [[Prepare and Measure Quantum Digital Signature#Discussion|example protocol]] achieves the task of [[Quantum Digital Signature]] which allows for the exchange of single or multiple bit classical messages from sender to multiple recipients such that parties are required to prepare and measure quantum states instantly without having to store them. For simplicity, most protocols take into account the case of one sender and two recipients (Seller, buyer and verifier) exchanging single-bit classical messages.</br> It ensures that the sender (seller) cannot deny at a later stage having signed the message, a recipient (buyer) cannot fake or alter the QDS and another sender (verifier) can use the above two properties to verify if the sent message is signed by the genuine sender, thus, satisfying properties of  [[Quantum Digital Signature#Properties|transferability]],[[Quantum Digital Signature#Properties|non-repudiation]] and [[Quantum Digital Signature#Properties|unforgeability]]. It allows the user to sign electronic documents.</br>

===Outline===
----
Quantum Digital Signature (QDS) protocols can be separated into two stages: the distribution stage, where quantum signals (public keys) are sent to all recipients, and the messaging stage, where classical messages are signed, sent and verified. Here, we take the case of three parties, one sender (referred to as seller) and two receivers (buyer and verifier) sharing a one bit message.

Distribution phase can be divided into the following steps:
Distribution phase can be divided into the following steps:
Line 27: Line 21:
*''' Transfer:''' Buyer forwards the same message and private key to the other receiver (called verifier) who compares it with his eliminated signature for this message.

*The protocol-
**involves three parties (Seller, Buyer, Verifier) exchanging one-bit classical messages.
**'''Requires''' [[BB84 QKD|BB84 QKD]] setup, [[authenticated]] quantum and classical channels
**assumes maximum number of participating parties are honest. In the present case at least two parties are honest.
**provides information-theoretic security
**provides security against repudiation, i.e. the probability that seller succeeds in making buyer and seller disagree on the validity of her sent quantum signature decays exponentially with L, as stated by the formula <math>P(\text{rep})\le e^{-(s_v-s_a)^2L}</math>.
**provides security against forgery, i.e. any recipient (verifier) with high probability rejects any message which was not originally sent by the seller herself. Forging probability is given by the formula, <math>P(\text{forge})\le e^{-(c_{\min}-2s_v)^2L}</math>, where <math>c_{\min}</math> is 3/8 (calculated using uncertainty principle).
