We discuss the power and limitation of various "advice," when it is given particularly to weak computational models of one-tape linear-time Turing machines and one-way finite (state) automata. Of various advice types, we consider…

Coin-flipping is a fundamental task in two-party cryptography where two remote mistrustful parties wish to generate a shared uniformly random bit. While quantum protocols promising near-perfect security exist for weak coin-flipping -- when…

One-time programs, computer programs which self-destruct after being run only once, are a powerful building block in cryptography and would allow for new forms of secure software distribution. However, ideal one-time programs have been…

Feedback-based quantum optimization is a quantum approach to combinatorial optimization. In this paper, we introduce the classical counterpart of feedback-based quantum optimization by using the quantum-classical correspondence of spin…

A coin is just a two sided dice. Recently, Mochon proved that quantum weak coin flipping with an arbitrarily small bias is possible. However, the use of quantum resources to allow N remote distrustful parties to roll an N-sided dice has yet…
