A Stable Hash Function Based on Parity-dependent Quantum Walks with Memory (August 2023)

In this paper, we develop a generic controlled alternate quantum-walk model (called CQWMP) by combining parity-dependent quantum walks with distinct arbitrary memory lengths and propose a hash function (called QHFM-P) based on this model. The statistical properties of the proposed scheme are stable with respect to the coin parameters of the underlying controlled quantum walks; […]
