Practical quantum oblivious transfer and bit commitment protocols

Abstract

We propose a practical quantum oblivious transfer and a bit commitment protocols which replace the single-photon source with weak coherent pulses and allow error and loss in channel and detectors. These protocols can be realized with available optoelectronic apparatus.
