摘要
Lately, Tian et al. proposed a novel semi-quantum private comparison (SQPC) protocol without pre-shared key, which reduces the complexity and cost of the protocol. However, we found there exist some security problems in Tian's SQPC protocol, such that participants' secret information can easily be leaked. In addition, based on Tian's SQPC protocol, we proposed an improved SQPC protocol that has a higher security level.
