Quantum information splitting of an arbitrary three-qubit state by using a genuinely entangled five-qubit state and a Bell-state

A new application of the genuinely entangled five-qubit state introduced by Brown et al. (J Phys A 38(5), 1119–1131, 2005) is investigated for quantum information splitting (QIS) of an arbitrary three-qubit state. We demonstrate that such a genuine five-qubit entangled state and a Bell-state can be used to realize the deterministic QIS of an arbitrary three-qubit state by performing the Bell-state measurements and single qubit measurement. The presented protocol is showed to be secure against certain eavesdropping attacks.
