Selection of unitary operations in quantum secret sharing without entanglement

We propose a substitute-Bell-state attack strategy for quantum secret sharing schemes without entanglement, as well as a definition of the minimum failure probability of such attack strategy. A quantitative analysis of security degrees corresponding to different unitary operations is also provided, when the secret sharing schemes without entanglement are stricken by substitute-Bell-state attack. As a result, the relation between the selection of unitary operations and the effect of substitute-Bell-state attack is shown, which can serve as an important guidance for the selection of unitary operations in designing and implementing quantum secret sharing schemes.
