Abstract:
We will begin by delving into some details of the techniques used for constructing protocols for secure distributed computation of arbitrary quantum circuits in networks with a majority of honest participants (this will follow up, at least partly, on the earlier talk by Daniel Gottesman). Time permitting, we will turn to two-party computing tasks and the connections between classical zero-knowledge and secure processing of quantum data.
