    A simple proof of the unconditional security of a relativistic quantum cryptosystem based on orthogonal states is given. Limitations imposed by the special relativity theory allow the proof to be markedly simplified as compared to the case of nonrelativistic cryptosystems based on nonorthogonal...

    A relativistic quantum exchange protocol making it possible to implement a bit commitment scheme is realized. The protocol is based on the idea that in the relativistic case the propagation of a field into a region of space accessible for measurement requires, in contrast to the nonrelativistic...
