Abstract

A new two-party quantum key agreement (QKA) protocol is proposed based on four-qubit cluster states. Encoded four-qubit cluster states can be transmitted directly by means of order rearrangement operation. In contrast to existing QKA protocols based on four-qubit cluster states, it is unnecessary to perform two-way quantum communication. We analyze the security of this protocol and prove that it is secure in ideal conditions. We also propose the method to ensure the security of this protocol in noisy channel. Finally, we analyze the expansibility of the proposed QKA protocol and propose a three-party QKA protocol based on four-qubit cluster states.
