Relating non-local quantum computation to information theoretic cryptography

Rene Allerstorfer, Harry Buhrman, Alex May +2

Non-local quantum computation (NLQC) is a cheating strategy for position-verification schemes, and has appeared in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Here, we connect NLQC…

Code-routing: a new attack on position verification

Joy Cree, Alex May

The cryptographic task of position verification attempts to verify one party's location in spacetime by exploiting constraints on quantum information and relativistic causality. A…

How Not to Protect Your IP -- An Industry-Wide Break of IEEE 1735 Implementations

Julian Speith, Florian Schweins, Maik Ender +3

Modern hardware systems are composed of a variety of third-party Intellectual Property (IP) cores to implement their overall functionality. Since hardware design is a globalized pr…

Quantum Period Finding is Compression Robust

Alexander May, Lars Schlieper

We study quantum period finding algorithms such as Simon and Shor (and its variants Ekerå-Håstad and Mosca-Ekert). For a periodic function these algorithms produce -- via some…
