In the m-out-of-n oblivious transfer (OT) model, one party Alice sends n bits to another party Bob, Bob can get only m bits from the n bits. However, Alice cannot know which m bits Bob received. Y. Mu and Naor presented classical m-out-of-n oblivious transfer based on discrete logarithm. As the work of Shor, the discrete logarithm can be solved in polynomial time by quantum computers, so such OTs are unsecure to the quantum computer. In this paper, we construct a quantum m-out-of-n OT (QOT) scheme based on the transmission of polarized light and show that the scheme is robust to general attacks, i.e. the QOT scheme satisfies statistical correctness and statistical privacy.
