QPP and HPPK: Unifying Non-Commutativity for Quantum-Secure Cryptography with Galois Permutation Group
<|reference_start|>QPP and HPPK: Unifying Non-Commutativity for Quantum-Secure Cryptography with Galois Permutation Group: In response to the evolving landscape of quantum computing and the escalating vulnerabilities in classical cryptographic systems, our paper introduces a unified cryptographic framework. Rooted in the innovative work of Kuang et al., we leverage two novel primitives: the Quantum Permutation Pad (QPP) for symmetric key encryption and the Homomorphic Polynomial Public Key (HPPK) for Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM) and Digital Signatures (DS). Our approach adeptly confronts the challenges posed by quantum advancements. Utilizing the Galois Permutation Group's matrix representations and inheriting its bijective and non-commutative properties, QPP achieves quantum-secure symmetric key encryption, seamlessly extending Shannon's perfect secrecy to both classical and quantum-native systems. Meanwhile, HPPK, free from NP-hard problems, fortifies symmetric encryption for the plain public key. It accomplishes this by concealing the mathematical structure through modular multiplications or arithmetic representations of Galois Permutation Group over hidden rings, harnessing their partial homomorphic properties. This allows for secure computation on encrypted data during secret encapsulations, bolstering the security of the plain public key. The seamless integration of KEM and DS within HPPK cryptography yields compact key, cipher, and signature sizes, demonstrating exceptional performance. This paper organically unifies QPP and HPPK under the Galois Permutation Group, marking a significant advancement in laying the groundwork for quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols. Our contribution propels the development of secure communication systems amid the era of quantum computing.<|reference_end|>
