Statistically-Secure Bit Commitment and Coin Flipping Protocols Based on Quantum Hardware Assumptions
Roo Dunnill, Mina Doosti
Bit commitment is impossible to achieve with unconditional security, even in quantum cryptogra- phy. We show that statistically secure bit commitment, satisfying both hiding and bi…
Routing Anonymity and Identifiability of Noisy Quantum Hardware
Ben Priestley, Mina Doosti
Present-day quantum computing is cloud-based, where a user submits a circuit to a service provider's proprietary backend hardware. While providers may wish to hide implementation d…
Authentication in Quantum Networks
Christopher Battarbee, Suchetana Goswami, Elham Kashefi +1
In this review, we survey the cryptographic task of authentication from the perspective of quantum communication. We review three main flavours of authentication that are often con…
Unconditional Authentication in Quantum Key Distribution via Hybrid Entangled Physical Unclonable Functions
Nicolas Laurent-Puig, Mina Doosti, Adriano Innocenzi +1
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) enables Information-Theoretically Secure (ITS) key exchange, robust even against future quantum computing threats. However, a fundamental limitation…
Distributed Quantum Property Testing with Communication Constraints
Mina Doosti, Ryan Sweke, Chirag Wadhwa
We introduce a framework for distributed quantum inference under communication constraints. In our model, distributed nodes each receive one copy of an unknown -dimensional…
Hybrid Authentication Protocols for Advanced Quantum Networks
Suchetana Goswami, Mina Doosti, Elham Kashefi
Authentication is a fundamental building block of secure quantum networks, essential for quantum cryptographic protocols and often debated as a key limitation of quantum key distri…
