To optimize Shor’s algorithm for binary elliptic curves, reducing the cost of binary field multiplication is essential because it is the most cost-critical arithmetic operation. In this paper, we propose Toffoli gate count-optimized, space-efficient (i.e., no ancilla qubits are used) quantum circuits for binary field (<span>((mathbb {F}_{2^{n}}))</span>) multiplication. To achieve this, we leverage the Karatsuba-like formulae and demonstrate that its application can be implemented without the need for ancillary qubits. We optimize these circuits in terms of CNOT gate count and depth. Building upon the Karatsuba-like formulae, we develop a space-efficient CRT-based multiplication technique utilizing two types of out-of-place multiplication algorithms to reduce the CNOT gate count. Our quantum circuits exhibit an extremely low Toffoli gate count of <span>(O(n2^{log {2}^{*}n}))</span>, where <span>(log _{2}^{*})</span> represents the iterative logarithmic function that grows very slowly. When compared to recent Karatsuba-based space-efficient quantum circuit, our approach requires only (10–25 %) of the Toffoli gate count and Toffoli depth for cryptographic field sizes in the range of <i>n</i> = 233–571. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first successful utilization of the Karatsuba-like formulae and CRT-based multiplication in quantum circuits.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":746,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Information Processing","volume":"23 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142415119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data often include sensitive information, and the protection of such privacy-sensitive data is important. Attribute-based encryption is one of the most popular methods to address security and privacy challenges encountered in such cases. However, most of the existing classical attribute-based schemes are not secure against quantum attacks and can be broken using Shor’s algorithm. Given this, secure (single-authority) quantum attribute-based schemes have been recently studied. To the best of our knowledge, quantum multi-authority attribute-based schemes have not received much attention and are missing in the literature. Here, we propose a novel construction of a quantum multi-authority attribute-based encryption scheme. The privacy of the encryption scheme is derived using trap codes and quantum secret-sharing schemes. Our construction is based on discrete-time quantum walks and is shown to be portable and usable in several variants of multi-authority schemes.
