Abstract
In this paper, we first present a five-party scheme for sharing a single-qutrit state by using GHZ states as the quantum channel. Any one of the agents has the access to reconstruct the original state if other controlling agents cooperate with him. We also sketch the generation of five-party scheme to the case of multi-qudit states and multiple participants by a composite channel composed of generalized Bell states and GHZ states. In our scheme, the physical operations, especially for the controllers and the final receiver, are considerably reduced. It also demonstrates a high degree of symmetry and provides a useful inspiration for implementing hierarchical quantum information splitting.
