Abstract
In this paper, we define two specific secure multiparty summations and further present the corresponding measurement-device-independent quantum secure multiparty summation protocols, in which each party with a private input only performs simple single-particle operators, not any complex quantum measurements. The proposed protocols not only achieve the information-theoretical security, but also ensure the good feasibility and the high performance.
