Summary
Quantum computing offers the ability to unlock cryptographic advancements that are beyond the reach of existing security technologies. This includes not only strengthening the mathematical foundations of existing cryptographic schemes but also enabling entirely new cryptographic concepts. This project seeks to chart a clearer understanding of the complexity-theoretic foundations that underlie quantum cryptographic systems. The resulting insights will help in precisely characterizing the mathematical assumptions needed for quantum cryptographic primitives. The project also aims to develop new p
