• Title: Real-Valued Somewhat-Pseudorandom Unitaries
• Authors: Zvika Brakerski, Nir Magrafta,
• Abstract summary: We show that even though real-valued unitaries cannot be completely pseudorandom, we can still obtain some pseudorandom properties without giving up on a real-valued unitary. Our analysis shows that an even simpler construction: applying a random (binary) phase followed by a random computational-basis permutation, would suffice.

• Abstract: We explore a very simple distribution of unitaries: random (binary) phase -- Hadamard -- random (binary) phase -- random computational-basis permutation. We show that this distribution is statistically indistinguishable from random Haar unitaries for any polynomial set of orthogonal input states (in any basis) with polynomial multiplicity. This shows that even though real-valued unitaries cannot be completely pseudorandom (Haug, Bharti, Koh, arXiv:2306.11677), we can still obtain some pseudorandom properties without giving up on the simplicity of a real-valued unitary. Our analysis shows that an even simpler construction: applying a random (binary) phase followed by a random computational-basis permutation, would suffice, assuming that the input is orthogonal and \emph{flat} (that is, has high min-entropy when measured in the computational basis). Using quantum-secure one-way functions (which imply quantum-secure pseudorandom functions and permutations), we obtain an efficient cryptographic instantiation of the above.

  We show that products exponentiated sums of $S(N)$ permutations with random phases match the first $2Omega(n)$ moments of the Haar measure. The heart of our proof is a conceptual connection between the large dimension (large-$N$) expansion in random matrix theory and the method.

  Uniformly random unitaries, i.e. unitaries drawn from the Haar measure, have many useful properties, but cannot be implemented efficiently. Two different notions of derandomisation have emerged: $t-designs are random unitaries that reproduce the first $t moments of the Haar measure, and pseudorandom unitaries (PRUs) are random unitaries that are computationally indistinguishable from Haar random.

We prove that this PRU construction is secure against non-adaptive distinguishers assuming the existence of quantum-secure one-way functions.

  sparse transformer can reduce the computational complexity of the self-attention layers to $O(n)$, whilst still being a universal approximator of continuous sequence-to-sequence functions. We propose an $O(n)$ complexity sampled transformer that can process point set elements directly without any additional inductive bias.

  We use a toy fiber optic based setup to generate binary series, and evaluate their level of randomness according to Ville principle. Series are tested with a battery of standard statistical indicators, Hurst, Kolmogorov complexity, minimum entropy, Takensarity dimension of embedding, and Augmented Dickey Fuller and Kwiatkowski Phillips Schmidt Shin to check station exponent. The level of randomness of series obtained by applying Toeplitz extractor to rejected series is found to be indistinguishable from the level of non-rejected raw ones.
