The quantum cryptography and the unambiguous measurement of quantum nonorthogonal states

Won Young Hwang, In Gyu Koh, Yeong Deok Han

Published 1997-02-19, updated 1997-04-29Version 2

We discuss the unambiguous measurement of quantum nonorthogonal states in connection with the quantum cryptography. We show that checking a ratio of null one to signal is essential in detecting a certain kind of eavesdropping in the case of two nonorthogonal states quantum cryptography. We prove that it is not needed in the case of the four states quantum cryptography.
