  4. Abstract:
  5. Quantum secret sharing (QSS) protocols between N players, for sharing classical secrets, either use multipartite entangled states or use sequential manipulation of single d-level states only when d is prime (A. Tavakoli, arXiv:1501.05582). We propose a sequential scheme which is valid for any value of d. In contrast to A. Tavakoli et al. whose efficiency (number of valid rounds) is 1d, the efficiency of our scheme is 12 for any d. This, together with the fact that in the limit d the scheme can be implemented by continuous variable optical states, brings the scheme into the domain of present day technology
