We introduce the notion of associative one-way functions and prove that they exist if and only if P 6= NP. As evidence of their utility, we present two novel protocols that apply ...
Naor and Yung show that a one-bit-compressing universal one-way hash function (UOWHF) can be constructed based on a one-way permutation. This construction can be iterated to build...
Abstract. We introduce new and general complexity theoretic hardumptions. These assumptions abstract out concrete properties of a random oracle and are significantly stronger than ...
This paper studies the gap between classical one-way communication complexity C(f) and its quantum counterpart Q(f), under the unbounded-error setting, i.e., it is enough that the ...
