• Abstract: QROM (quantum random oracle model), introduced by Boneh et al. (Asiacrypt 2011), captures all generic algorithms. However, it fails to describe non-uniform quantum algorithms with preprocessing power, which receives a piece of bounded classical or quantum advice. As non-uniform algorithms are largely believed to be the right model for attackers, starting from the work by Nayebi, Aaronson, Belovs, and Trevisan (QIC 2015), a line of works investigates non-uniform security in the random oracle model. Chung, Guo, Liu, and Qian (FOCS 2020) provide a framework and establish non-uniform security for many cryptographic applications. In this work, we continue the study on quantum advice in the QROM. We provide a new idea that generalizes the previous multi-instance framework, which we believe is more quantum-friendly and should be the quantum analogue of multi-instance games. To this end, we match the bounds with quantum advice to those with classical advice by Chung et al., showing quantum advice is almost as good/bad as classical advice for many natural security games in the QROM. Finally, we show that for some contrived games in the QROM, quantum advice can be exponentially better than classical advice for some parameter regimes. To our best knowledge, it provides some evidence of a general separation between quantum and classical advice relative to an unstructured oracle.

  We introduce a quantum hardness assumption called the Hamiltonian Phase State (HPS) problem. We show that our assumption is plausibly fully quantum; meaning, it cannot be used to construct one-way functions. We show that our assumption and its variants allow us to efficiently construct many pseudorandom quantum primitives.

• Simple Tests of Quantumness Also Certify Qubits [69.96668065491183]
  A test of quantumness is a protocol that allows a classical verifier to certify (only) that a prover is not classical. We show that tests of quantumness that follow a certain template, which captures recent proposals such as (Kalai et al., 2022) can in fact do much more. Namely, the same protocols can be used for certifying a qubit, a building-block that stands at the heart of applications such as certifiable randomness and classical delegation of quantum computation.

Taking advantage of its anticipation also leads to a new type of quantum measurements, which we call anticipative. In an anticipative quantum measurement the combination of the results from classical and quantum computations happens only in the end.

  Zhandry studied interactions between quantum query algorithms and the quantum oracle corresponding to random functions. We introduce a similar interpretation for the case when the oracle corresponds to random permutations instead of random functions. Because both random functions and random permutations are highly significant in security proofs, we hope that the present framework will find applications in quantum cryptography.

  We consider the setting where the two parties (a classical Alice and a quantum Bob) can communicate only via a classical channel. We show that it is in general impossible to realize a two-party quantum functionality with black-box simulation in the case of malicious quantum adversaries. We provide a compiler that takes as input a classical proof of quantum knowledge (PoQK) protocol for a QMA relation R and outputs a zero-knowledge PoQK for R that can be verified by classical parties.
