abstract

We construct unclonable encryption (UE) in the Haar random oracle model, where all parties have query access to $U,U^\dagger,U^*,U^T$ for a Haar random unitary $U$. Our scheme satisfies the standard notion of unclonable indistinguishability security, supports reuse of the secret key, and can encrypt arbitrary-length messages. That is, we give the first evidence that (reusable) UE, which requires computational assumptions, exists in "microcrypt", a world where one-way functions may not exist. As one of our central technical contributions, we build on the recently introduced path recording framework to prove a natural ``unitary reprogramming lemma'', which may be of independent interest.

Quantum Lazy Sampling and Path Recording for Any Group

quant-ph · 2026-06-29 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

A general-purpose path-recording oracle is defined that perfectly simulates random elements of any closed subgroup of U(N) by storing t input-output pairs whose updates are governed by the commutant of the group's tensor-power representation.
