A Four-Party Quantum Secret-Sharing Scheme based on Grover's Search
  Algorithm
The work presents an amalgam of quantum search algorithm (QSA) and quantum
secret sharing (QSS). The proposed QSS scheme utilizes Grover's three-particle
quantum state. In this scheme, the dealer prepares an encoded state by encoding
the classical information as a marked state and shares the states' qubits
between three participants. The participants combine their qubits and find the
marked state as a measurement result of the three-qubit state. The security
analysis shows the scheme is stringent against malicious participants or
eavesdroppers. In comparison to the existing schemes, our protocol fairs pretty
well and has a high encoding capacity. The simulation analysis is done on the
cloud platform IBM-QE thereby showing the practical feasibility of the scheme.
