Abstract

A three-party scheme for sharing an arbitrary single-qubit operation on a distant target qubit is proposed by utilizing a six-qubit absolutely maximally entangled (AME) state in a given qubit distribution. The security of the proposed scheme is analyzed and ensured. The essential role which the AME state in the given qubit distribution plays in the QOS task is revealed. The important features including scheme determinacy and sharer symmetry are identified. The experimental feasibility of the proposed scheme is simply discussed and confirmed. The scheme is compared with a competing tripartite one proposed by Peng with a same six-qubit AME state but in another qubit distribution (Peng Quant. Inf. Process. 14, 4255, 2015). It is found that this scheme is also applicable and needs less necessary two-qubit operations in contrast to Peng’s.
