Publicly Verifiable Blind Quantum Computation

Abstract: Blind quantum computation protocols allow a user with limited quantum technology to delegate an intractable computation to a quantum server while keeping the computation perfectly secret. Whereas in some protocols a user can verify that calculated outcomes are correct, a third party cannot do this, which allows a dishonest user or owner to benefit illegally. I propose a new blind quantum computation protocol with a new property called public verifiability, which enables any third party to assure that a party does not benefit from attempted deception.
