Abstract
We proposed a novel and efficient multiparty quantum secret sharing scheme using entangled state which in that the number of parties can be arbitrary large. The state which we used, has special properties that make our scheme simple and safe. The operations which are needed to recover secret message, are only exclusive-or addition and complement operation. Moreover it is shown that this scheme is secure against eavesdropping. Also this scheme provides the best quantum bit efficiency compared with some famous quantum secret sharing schemes.
