| Title: | Quantum cryptography without one-way functions |
| Abstract: | One-way functions are the minimum assumption in classical cryptography. On the other hand, in quantum cryptography where quantum computing and quantum communications are possible, recent studies suggest that one-way functions are not necessarily the minimum assumption. In this talk, I explain recently introduced several new primitives, such as pseudorandom state generators, one-way state generators, and EFI pairs, and show relations among them. I also give many open problems in this new field. This talk is based on joint works with Takashi Yamakawa (NTT) [e.g., Morimae and Yamakawa, Crypto 2022] Thank you in advance |
