Explore the concept of minimal cryptographic assumptions in quantum computing through this 34-minute lecture by Mark Zhandry from NTT Research. Delve into the traditional view of one-way functions as the foundational assumption in cryptography and examine recent developments suggesting the possibility of quantum objects existing "below" this level. Investigate the fundamental characteristics that make one-way functions minimal and consider the implications for quantum cryptography. Gain insights into the ongoing search for a new minimal quantum assumption and its potential impact on the field.
