Security for anti-piracy proof systems
FY 2024-25
Summary
One of the most puzzling and powerful properties of quantum information is the no-cloning principle, according to which it is not possible to copy an unknown quantum state. This principle is a complete departure from the classical realm, and it leads to amazing feats of the quantum cryptography.
As a collaboration between Sorbonne Université (France) and the University of Ottawa (Canada), this work seeks to understand the theoretical underpinning of uncloneable proof systems, in providing security proofs for candidate schemes that have so far evaded a full security analysis.
