Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Card-based cryptography performs secure multi-party computation with black and red cards. Usually, a Boolean value is encoded based on the order of a black card and a red card; such a pair of face-down cards is called a commitment to the corresponding bit. A copy protocol makes $n$ commitments from an input commitment. This paper shows lower bounds on the numbers of cards for performing copy. Specifically, we show that it is impossible to construct a copy protocol with $2n$ cards. Furthermore, we show that there is no finite-runtime copy protocol with $2n+1$ cards.
