Description
Quantum fingerprinting is a family of quantum functions that began to be used in quantum algorithms in the early 2000s. They map classical objects to quantum states in such a way that different arguments can be effectively distinguished. To further highlight the additional cryptographic characteristics of quantum fingerprinting, our group uses the name “quantum hashing.” The talk introduces the basic concepts of quantum fingerprinting and hashing, as well as their use in communications protocols, cryptographic signatures, and pattern searching in text.
