A Note on Publicly Verifiable Quantum Money with Low Quantum Computational Resources
By: Fabrizio Genovese, Lev Stambler
Potential Business Impact:
Creates unforgeable digital money using simple quantum tricks.
In this work we present a publicly verifiable quantum money protocol which assumes close to no quantum computational capabilities. We rely on one-time memories which in turn can be built from quantum conjugate coding and hardware-based assumptions. Specifically, our scheme allows for a limited number of verifications and also allows for quantum tokens for digital signatures. Double spending is prevented by the no-cloning principle of conjugate coding states. An implementation of the concepts presented in this work can be found at https://github.com/neverlocal/otm_billz.
