In the proposed scheme, two participants Alice and Bob can be regarded as playing a game of making guesses on identities of quantum states that are in one of two given nonorthogonal states: if Bob makes a correct (an incorrect) guess on the identity of a quantum state that Alice has sent, he wins (loses). It is shown that the proposed scheme is secure against the nonentanglement attack. It can also be shown heuristically that the scheme is secure in the case of the entanglement attack.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2001-10-11T12:24:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum state", "quantum nonorthogonal states", "quantum gambling scheme", "nonentanglement attack", "participants alice" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
