论文摘要
根据近年来,关于从物理现象和法律中从理论上确保的方法来实现加密功能的进步,我们在这里建议从有限的自由能的唯一假设中获得有用的任务。具体而言,基于该假设(导致与Maurer的有限存储模型松散相关的设置),我们得出了无条件证明的协议,用于无条件的证据,自由能的秘密共享,不可遗忘的资金和证据证明。尽管我们的计划可以被认为是经典的,而不是量子本身,但它们对两种对手都具有抵抗力。
In line with advances in recent years about realizing cryptographic functionalities in an information-theoretically secure way from physical phenomena and laws, we propose here to obtain useful tasks from the sole assumption of limited free energy. Specifically, based on that assumption -- resulting in a setting loosely related to Maurer's bounded-storage model -- we derive protocols for unconditional proofs-of-thermodynamical-work, secret sharing of free energy, unforgeable money, and proofs-of-position. While our schemes can be considered classical and not quantum per se, they are resistant against both classes of adversaries.
