Natural Barriers to Quantum Extraction: On the Post-Quantum (In)security of (O)EKE and Masny-Rindal OT

James Bartusek, Jake Januzelli

Encrypted key exchange (EKE), introduced by Bellovin and Merritt (IEEE S\&P 1992), and Masny-Rindal OT, introduced by Masny and Rindal (ACM CCS 2019), are highly-efficient methods…

Succinct Arguments for QMA from Collapsing Hash Functions

James Bartusek, Giulio Malavolta

We prove the existence of succinct arguments for QMA, assuming only the existence of collapsing hash functions. This is the first scheme that relies only on unstructured ``Minicryp…

How To Track Qubits Through Space and Time (Or: Sailing in a Quantum Boat)

James Bartusek, Zikuan Huang, Leo Orshansky +1

While quantum position verification aims to certify a prover's location using quantum information, existing security definitions only guarantee that part of the successful adversar…

A Note on Boosting Uncloneable Encryption in Microcrypt

James Bartusek, Eli Goldin

In this note, we consider the setting of uncloneable encryption satisfying uncloneable indistinguishability, a form of symmetric key encryption that prevents the cloning of ciphert…

Unclonable Encryption in the Haar Random Oracle Model

James Bartusek, Eli Goldin

We construct unclonable encryption (UE) in the Haar random oracle model, where all parties have query access to for a Haar random unitary . Our scheme sati…

A New Approach to Arguments of Quantum Knowledge

James Bartusek, Ruta Jawale, Justin Raizes +1

We construct a publicly-verifiable non-interactive zero-knowledge argument system for QMA with the following properties. 1. Transparent setup. Our protocol only requires a uniforml…

Classical Obfuscation of Quantum Circuits via Publicly-Verifiable QFHE

James Bartusek, Aparna Gupte, Saachi Mutreja +1

A classical obfuscator for quantum circuits is a classical program that, given the classical description of a quantum circuit , outputs the classical description of a functional…

On the Communication Complexity of Secure Multi-Party Computation With Aborts

James Bartusek, Thiago Bergamaschi, Seri Khoury +2

A central goal of cryptography is Secure Multi-party Computation (MPC), where parties desire to compute a function of their joint inputs without letting any party learn about t…

Secret Sharing with Certified Deletion

James Bartusek, Justin Raizes

Secret sharing allows a user to split a secret into many shares so that the secret can be recovered if, and only if, an authorized set of shares is collected. Although secret shari…

Quantum State Obfuscation from Classical Oracles

James Bartusek, Zvika Brakerski, Vinod Vaikuntanathan

A major unresolved question in quantum cryptography is whether it is possible to obfuscate arbitrary quantum computation. Indeed, there is much yet to understand about the feasibil…

Secure Computation with Shared EPR Pairs (Or: How to Teleport in Zero-Knowledge)

James Bartusek, Dakshita Khurana, Akshayaram Srinivasan

Can a sender non-interactively transmit one of two strings to a receiver without knowing which string was received? Does there exist minimally-interactive secure multiparty computa…

Weakening Assumptions for Publicly-Verifiable Deletion

James Bartusek, Dakshita Khurana, Giulio Malavolta +2

We develop a simple compiler that generically adds publicly-verifiable deletion to a variety of cryptosystems. Our compiler only makes use of one-way functions (or one-way state ge…
