ABSTRACT = {To solve the problem of hiding quantum information in simplified 
subsystems, Modi et al. [1] introduced the concept of quantum masking. 
Quantum masking is the encoding of quantum information by composite 
quantum states in such a way that the quantum information is hidden to the 
subsystem and spreads to the correlation of the composite systems. The concept 
of quantum masking was developed along with a new quantum impossibility 
theorem, the quantum no-masking theorem. The question of whether a quantum 
state can be masked has been studied by many people from the perspective of the 
types of quantum states, the number of masking participants, and error correction 
codes. Others have studied the relationships between maskable quantum states, 
the deterministic and probabilistic masking of quantum states, and the problem 
of probabilistic masking. Quantum masking techniques have been shown to 
outperform previous strategies in quantum bit commitment, quantum multi-party 
secret sharing, and so on.},
