Abstract

We present a device-independent quantum bit-wise XOR summation protocol based on a pseudo-telepathy multi-partite GHZ game proposed by Brassard et al. In this game, n participants can win the game with certainty with a quantum strategy, but using any classical strategy, they can only win the game with a probability that differs from 1/2 by more than a fraction that is exponentially small in the number of participants. We also analyse the correctness and security of the proposed protocol, showing that it can resist well-known outside and participant attacks.
