A Weak Quantum Oblivious Transfer

Due to the commonly known impossibility results, information theoretic security is considered impossible for oblivious transfer (OT) in both the classical and the quantum world. In this paper, we proposed a weak version of the all-or-nothing OT. In our protocol the honest parties do not need long term quantum memory, entanglements, or sophisticated quantum computations. We observe some difference between the classical and quantum OT impossibilities.
