Abstract
Practical application of the generalized Bell's theorem in the so-called key distribution process in cryptography is reported. The proposed scheme is based on the Bohm's version of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen gedanken experiment and Bell's theorem is used to test for eavesdropping.

16,696 Citations1935Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky +1 more
Consideration of the problem of making predictions concerning a system on the basis of measurements made on another system that had previously interacted with it leads to the result that one is led to conclude that the description of reality as given by a wave function is not complete.

A theory of secrecy systems is developed on a theoretical level and is intended to complement the treatment found in standard works on cryptography.

It is shown that quantum theory and the 'universal quantum computer’ are compatible with the principle, and quantum complexity theory allows a physically more reasonable definition of the ‘complexity’ or ‘knowledge’ in a physical system than does classical complexity theory.

It is shown that in compensation for this "quantum noise", quantum mechanics allows us novel forms of coding without analogue in communication channels adequately described by classical physics.

1,296 Citations1989David Deutsch
The theory of quantum computational networks is the quantum generalization of the theory of logic circuits used in classical computing machines, and a single type of gate, the universal quantum gate, together with quantum ‘unit wires' is adequate for constructing networks with any possible quantum computational property.
