Quantum Anonymous Voting Protocol Based On Single-Particle

Anonymous voting is often one decision-making choice in many democracies. Facing the security threats from quantum computers, classical anonymous voting protocols based on computational complexity hypothesis have innovated to quantum anonymous voting protocols based on quantum mechanics. In this paper, we propose a quantum anonymous voting protocol by using high-dimension single particles. With the help of EA and T, the construction of our protocol makes each legitimate voter cast only one ballot, and all ballots open in a quite random rearrangement. Each voter can anonymously trace his/her vote by a private position index, thus our protocol achieving the precious properties of eligibility, privacy, no-reusability, verifiability and fairness. We also analyze that the protocol can successfully resist attacks from external eavesdroppers and internal participants, ensuring that our voting protocol is secure under ideal conditions. Designing mature quantum anonymous voting protocols is challenging.
